Utter bollocks - it has never been disputed that Britain continued to export four times the amount of food out of Ireland than was capable of feeding the Irish population - even your "definitive" mrs Smith says so.
I assume you are going to continue with straight unqualified denial without evidence - let's see shall we
Did Britain insist that rent arrears should be acted on, and did they not facilitate mass evictions of bankrupt families for half a century, providing the troops and demolition squads to resist all opposition?
Off you go then
"By the bye "what should have been done differently that actually COULD HAVE BEEN DONE?"
Your repetition of this is getting like Keith's Dalek imitations
They should have LEFT THE WORKHOUSES OPEN - THEY SHOULD HAVE STOPPED IMPORTING FOOD - THEY SHOULD HAVE RELEASED THE AVAILABLE FOOD LOCKED UP IN WAREHOUSES - THEY SHOULD HAVE PROVIDED ASSISTANCE TO HELP THE SUFFERING POPULATION RIDE THE WORST EFFECTS OF THE FAMINE RATHER THAN FORCING THEM TO EMIGRATE OR DIE
