La información oficial es bastante confusa, pero hasta donde puedo ver, podrá utilizar su visa irlandesa para pasar por la inmigración del Reino Unido, siempre que la visa esté aprobada con "BC" o "BC BIVS".
- ***Warning*** Passengers may make a landside transit if
holding a valid biometric visa issued by Ireland (Rep.)
endorsed "BC" or "BC BIVS" and traveling to Ireland (Rep.).
(SEE NOTE 57399)
NOTE 57399: E-visas or e-residence permits are not
accepted for landside transit.
Aquí está la información completa que acabo de obtener de TIMATIC, la excepción para las visas irlandesas está cerca del final.
