its true the Great hunger was not a natural disaster at the time Ireland was producing enough food to sustain sixteen million people over five million were forced to die from starveation the food was taken under armed escort to be sold for profit by the elitist imperial racists
Laissez faire economics is what is operating right now with devastating consequences for people in Africa, South America and huge parts of Asia. The same systems operate to this day for the benefit of the few and the detriment of the many. It s the exact same system. Ireland was the victim then. Now it s a different victim. this type of rampant capitalism simply doesn' t work for the majority of the people.
@edwardtarr1 If you go by the original inhabitants of Britain, then yes you are correct on that. The Welsh are the descendents of Celtic Britons, who ruled what is now know as England, before the Anglo-Saxons arrived and pushed them west to Wales and Cornwall.
But I think by "British" he is referring to being loyal to the English (and after the Acts of Union 1707, British) government.
im welsh not british i portray it as a holocaust i am ashamed to be called british i wont talk to anyone who portrays the Irish holocaust as a famine its was a complete disgrace that wales and scotland didn't stand to help our fellow celtic people out and fight the english
The British still portray the Irish Famine as a natural act visited on an agriculturally incompetent people instead of the planned genocide it actually was. To that end they still educate their people to believe one of the pillars of that story, i.e the Irish are thick idiots.
The blight also took place in the rest of Europe, but they did not starve the peasantry in the rest of Europe. Even the Csar of Russia prevented the export of food until the people were fed. Part of the problem was England's adherence to Laissez Faire economic principles.
@adrienrain What? Are you freakin' kidding? Laissez faire economic principles? Did you watch this freakin' video? This was state-sponsored murder. What don't you get here? Jesus Christ!
@restoresoundmoney Well there's no doubt in my mind that the powers-that-be in England were eager to see Ireland depopulated. There was sympathy among the English people for Ireland, but there was a constant campaign in England, also, to demonize the Irish (see the work of Punch, particularly John Tenniel, who illustrated Alice in Wonderland.) But many in the English establishment cited 'free market principles' to justify exporting food from Ireland, and yes, the called it Laissez Faire.
@mollyfurie Hello. The statement, "Part of the problem was England's adherence to Laissez Faire economic principles." How does an individual or a state "adhere" to a thing (in this case, state-sponsored murder) when that thing is not what it is? A policy of theft and murder "laissez faire"? Nothing other than propaganda, & I suppose we can forgive the English masses their by-proxy participation in this because--after all--their bellies were being filled & who cared how? Not many, as we see.
BTW, Scotland and Wales both had terrible times under British rule during their history. Also, the words British and Britain were the names the Romans gave the isles, predating the Anglo Saxon invasion. So England, not Britain, is the problem ,-p
@mollyfurie And what to make of the Scots who willingly participated in the theft of land from the Irish--descendents of whom now still there willing under the rule of the historic government that--as you say--gave the Scots and Welsh "terrible times"? Selling their souls to become "plantation" owners of Irish land--"Connaught or hell". Those "citizens" of Northern "Ireland" should be ashamed of themselves.

@UnicornUnchained THE ETHNIC CLEANSING WAS DONE AGAINST THE NATIVE IRISH WHO were PUSHED from there OWN LAND and had there HOMES TOOK FROM THEM so the British the English crown THE PROTESTANTS could take hold and ANGLICISE THE island of IRELAND
@UnicornUnchained The Irish Confederate Wars, also called the Eleven Years War took place in Ireland between 1641 and 1653 It was the Irish theatre of the Wars of the Three Kingdoms a series of civil wars in the kingdoms of Ireland, England and Scotland (all ruled by Charles I.The conflict in Ireland essentially pitted the native Irish Catholics against the British Protestant COLONISTS INVADERS OCCUPIERS
I Did'nt realise you had already been there.much apols, Pogue aka billyhunchback! Christy and moving Hearts!Engineered Genocide is right .Keep up the good work.Excellent vid.Slan Mo Chara.*****
this video is definitely worth 5 stars and more great that you remind us how far we have come as a nation what can we say Ethnic cleansing was started by the English they did it to the Welsh the Scots FIRST then moved on to us Irish with more experience of how to do the job properly I am afraid the Celtic nations pissed the English establishment right off to the extent they wanted us as passive Anglos or just EXTINCT. keep en coming ERIN GO BRAGH
Oh those ever so frisky Brits, always so full of mischief and merriment.
Is their complicity in the deceptions leading to the invasion of Iraq any surprise to anyone? The only surprise is the fact that we got the clue by way of the Downing street memos, they are usually slicker than that.
They have much to answer for, they will always be stained until they do.
