You are welcome. Thank you for the super thanks it is really appreciated.

You bet!

I'm a Dubliner myself .. great to see people realise that, it wasn't the poor working class that enslaved or conquered land. It was always the elites. When it comes down to it, we have more in common than we realise... Society is changing rapidly and with AI etc more jobs will disappear and wage decrease & stagnation

What does this have to do with the Middle East? Nothing, so take your Psy op propaganda else ware. This is just getting annoying, if you want help or support just ask on honest grounds!

Ireland is Palestines biggest supporter in Europe its well known

The Israel-Palestine situation has nothing to do with the historical British-Irish relationship, but socialist leaning neo-liberals use it to brainwash Irish people.

What a load of rubbish

@mogznwaz not really Ireland was the very first country to be colonised by the British empire....... and as it stands still.is with northern Ireland

That's not true and there is objective proof that your mischievous anti Irish government/ anti democratic comment regarding Irish government officials supposedly being mainly landlords - NOT TRUE. they all declare their property and commercial interests on their official Register of Interests. Anyone in Ireland who can service a mortgage can be a landlord and not publicly declare it, so government officials don't own and lease more property than other professionals on similar wages do, but are obliged to declare it. You are willing to expose your lazy thought processes just to cause artificial non Irish resentment and anti democratic sentiment.

Thank you for suggesting i will check this out.

@@MrGiant A good video to see about it is called When Ireland Starved PART 1 It's from a documentary broken up into 3 parts on youtube. The first part focuses on the social and economic conditions that existed before the famine (I think it starts about 200 years before) and explains how the Irish people became so controlled and dependent.

yeah they perfected slavery with irish then franchised it to the world. thats why theirs irish all around the world the brits dropped them their as slaves originally yeah 100% there where collaborating lords

NO FAMINE IT IS ARMED BRITISH FOOD REMOVAL CAMPAIGN [PERIOD]

The Normans ruled Britain - they conquered the English in their way to Ireland

That's true and can be seen by the Irish prominence in Unicef, Band Aid and Live Aid lead by Irishman Bob Geldof , and all the anti poverty and anti starvation work that Bono and U2 feel obligated to initiate and sustain. Genocidal famine leaves a deep feeling of shame at relative powerlessness against a malign neighbour/colonial power and Irish rage at arbitrary injustices imposed on smaller nations - UK to Ireland and Russia against a peaceful democracy in Ukraine. Russia is using Iran to sarcrifice Palestine and Yemen in a war against Israel/Western democracies, purely to divide US and EU resources in their attempts to defend Ukraine from aggressive Russian intolerance of a successful Pro-European democracy on their autocratic doorstep.

400 people out of 8.5 millions is hardly worth mentioning

Thankyou for sharing.

Thank you for watching with me. Hope you have a merry Christmas and a happy new year.

@@MrGiant Many Happy Returns!

You're welcome

Dear Sir , Thank your honesty for saying exactly what happened in Ireland we as a nation still angry if the truth was told 😢

No. There are quotes from the monsters in charge saying that Ireland needed to have fewer people in it.

The blight was all over Europe, not just Ireland. So if English had not evicted them out of their homes, taken their land , and farms , but at same time made them " work" same lands to produce an abundance of food, which they took to feed the English planters on land first, and than exported to English Army and else where.. So lost homes...lost land, crops taken ...so had nothing , no where to live, only food was cheap spuds, the ones that got the blight ... So everywhere else in Europe had all the other food they grew to live off.. Also all livestock was exported too. Even when it first started, they turned a blind eye, still demanding rent for little areas they lived and grew potatoes.. They did nothing, until some of the good English landlords told Englsnd thousands are dying...so instead of giveing aid..they set up workhouse which could be miles from anywhere so exhausted and starving had to first walk there for days, than had to break rock and build roads, and walls for miles to no where with no food yet ..and payment at end of week..so many did not survive alive to get payment, and would not pay any family left as by week. So that accelerated death toll (the plan)... Which increased the amount of humans to be sold because would have turned to theft of food... Another scheme was soup kitchen again far and few near so had to walk miles to get to them, and unless converted to Prodastants were not allowed to have soup...and Irish Catholics were to faithfull and stubborn to convert.. England only started helping after 2 ish years ,when aid and food started arriving ..which at first would not allow in, than increased import tax so was not attainable to pay for its entry.....any where large donations came they refused so the queen not embarrassed as she only donated £1000.. They did not cause the blight, which caused thousands to die around Europe...but were in the process of genocide of the Irish population prior to it, so it just accelerated the process 10 fold.

@@ko0974Where did you get this illiterate nonsense from? MarxistsRUs University?

@@mogznwaz It may be sloppily written but it is accurate.

I will have to check it out.

I saw a video of a group of people apoligizing for slavery on my island Grenada. i will have to react to that one. Not sure if its the same people.

Ah yes, 'I could fix the system but I'll just give to charity instead' syndrome.

The people of the Caribbean use music the same way, Bob Marley comes to mind. We also do it through calypso music too. I will look up the song you suggested. Hope you are having a great weekend.

And left education, a working economy, hospitals, law, fair trial universities, a railway system that prevented famine, basically the modern world that didbt exist there before. They also abolished the slave trade, the burning of widows, marrying children.

I will check it out. Thank you.

Cromwell didn’t go down well with English peasants either. This idea ‘the English’ oppressed everyone was ludicrous. It was lords and serfs the world over. In fact England only adopted that concept after the Normans invaded. A European power. It was the Normans who swept across England and invaded Ireland too.

Doesn't it go back to before Ireland was invaded when Irish raiders would invade and enslave English people?

Then what did the English do that the Scots and Welsh did not?

@@malcolmstead272 They starved the Irish. The Welsh and the Scots did not. Watch the story I'm commenting about.

@@elizabeth10392 The English did nothing to starve the Irish, most were probably unaware, just like the Scots and Welsh. Most UK cities raised money to help. Parliament consisted of Welsh, Scots, English and yes Irish MP's.

@@malcolmstead272 So you haven't watched the start I was commenting on then. Yes, the English most did starve the Irish. Watch the story.

if you could do a reaction to "Riverdance Eurovision 1994" id would be amazing. Irish music and culture developed its own music as a result of the suffering, riverdance modernised it but kept its celtic heartbeat. its on 8minutes or so. even now , if you come to ireland and go into a village bar in places like galway, sligo, donegal, cork, youl find a man or woman on their own singing songs acapella about irish history. sorry for long message, love ya man keep up your great work on your channel!

Local IRISH landowners raised the taxes

​@mogznwaz they were hand picked by the British...to do their bidding...why are you so against being properly educated..maybe the captain caveman pic is appropriate...

Nah most people in the north are unionists

If government assistance was so generous why did over a million people die and twice that number emigrate. The British were exporting food from Ireland all through the famine. Your defence of government policy at that time is offensive to say the least.

I'm stating fact. Look it up

@chrisreeves9764 I've read numerous books about the famine , there's little in an6 of them that reflects well on British government policy. To defend what was basically genocide is a joke

@@philipmccarthy6175 You continue being a butt hurt Celt. I'm sure it will help you make a success of your life. As a wise Irishman once said, if we could have done to the English what they did to us, we would have. We just didn't have the capacity to do so.

​@@chrisreeves9764who wrote those facts...why can't you accept what really happened ...

The blight only ruined one strain of potatoes, plenty of other strains of potatoes still grew. Ireland produced abundance of food. It was know as the garden of Europe for its produce and livestock. They without doubt knew what crops to grow. Problem was their land was taken from them and owned by The British landowners, they still made them farm, but confiscated all produce from them and fed the English and Scottish planters and soldiers, exported the rest around Europe and to the armies on the Empire. The only food for natives was the cheap spud which was one with blight. The rest of Europe had all the other crops they grew and livestock to live on, but that luxury was denied to the Irish by their rulers.

Majority were Anglo Irish , Given once big homes from Evicted Irish..very few Irish land owners left around the country ..Those that were left were loyal to the queen and woukd have converted... still to this day same anglo Irish families live and prosper... but yes Elites did nasty horrible job on there own over there too, but not sure if it eas to cause demise ,except for Welsh and Scottish..

The land in Ireland was confiscated and given to English Soldiers as payment for their services to the Crown. It's a very long history, the starvation was the culmination of oppressive colonizers methods of destruction of a whole people. The Anglo Irish as you called them were in fact English by blood. They (Landlords) were also MPs in the English Parliament so any laws or rights passed there were for their own benefit. The Irish had no power whatsoever. 98% of the Landlords were English. There are mass graves in every village and town in Ireland as witness to this great coverup. In Ireland there were 11 million people not 8 million. At least 4 million died not 1 million. Children under 5 were not accounted for on the census. Pew counts were unreliable as were the census themselves carried out by English officials who became a great embarrassment to England because of their tawdry work. England then destroyed the Irish census records from 1860, 70, 80 and 90, they claimed for the war effort or to maybe bury evidence of a mass genocide. People saying that they didn't diversify have very little understanding of the conditions and oppression the Irish lived under. For instance they were only allowed one acre of the poorest land to live on and pay exorbitant rents from. When they made improvements to the land it was taken from them. It's not a simple history. Also be careful whose history books you are reading. As you know the victors are experts at distorting history and hiding truths.

The Irish never considered themselves british

OMG 🤦‍♀️

​@@irishdeetalks🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️😅

Nice try.
