Forgive my ignorance of history But if you had potatoes, how could there be a famine? You can make **** loads of meals out of potatoes: Chips Fritters Mash Roast Baked Even if it lasted till halloween, you get the biggest potato available, cut out a funny scary face, then walk around the village collecting sweets. Famine my arse. Now just think of our fellow african brethren today, walking miles & miles, to other countries because thay are starving. Now thats a famine.
Correct, the ****s have to walk miles, but that is only because they torched the peckham spar and the tottenham KFC and they have to walk to croydon for their breakfast.
a deliberate and concerted attempt at ethnic cleansing by the British. While not creating the disease themselves they siezed upon its onset as an opportunity to rid the island of the unprofitable and rebellious native people. There was plenty of food being produced on the Island, even potatoes, but it was all exported off the island to feed the british industial cities and foreign conquest. A lesser used but more accurate term is the Irish Holocaust
Show some respect Jacky - we just bailed you out and saved Ireland. You are forever in our heroic debt
To be fair the Irish banks you indirectly bailed out own about 20% of the commerical property in the city of London, I'm sure it was in Britain's interest to lend us 6bill at 5.5% interest per annum, a few percent higher than what they borrowed from the markets themselves at.
thank you but the going rate was £1.75 you cheapskate, no wonder the govt cut back on our 3rd holiday allowance
Holocaust is just right Jack trevelyan summed it up rightly. 'a direct stroke of an all-wise and all-merciful Providence' Sums up the Brits attitude to us Irish, but we are the bad guys didn't you know?
Im still waiting for a thank you Irish guys. Whatever the motive behind it - we saved your arses and you should never forget what heroes all of us English lads are
