In addition, Belfast seems to have had yet another timezone.
I'm not sure what the issue is.
From the introduction of standard time in 1880 until 1916, Great Britain was on GMT and Ireland (all of it) on DMT.
In 1916, Ireland moved to GMT so that the whole of the UK was on the same time. In WW2, the UK (including Northern Ireland) had double summer time but the Republic of Ireland didn't. So there's Great Britain, Northern Ireland, and the Republic, with three different histories.
How did the British actually manage to build an empire anyway?
