"...frustrated at Britain’s attempts to help Ireland during the Irish famine..."
lol. was this written by an English aristocrat?
It is a UK history site that open with this:
Queen Victoria had a majestic sixty-three-year reign... (majestic despite 1-2 million irish starving to death, the majority a direct result of British government policy to use the famine to reform the Irish)
So I don't expect anything close to historical balance.
Just like Soviets helped Ukraine in the 30s, eh
