Default Links between Liverpool and Ireland

Anyone know the story behind how first-generation indigenous Scousers came to have so much Irish lineage in them?

Maybe its because the Irish had to stay in Liverpool coz when they went to buy train tickets out they found that their wallets and purses had been robbed

It is essentially "The Ferry" . Basically, The Potato Famine happened and a lot of Irish people effectively became refugees, and Liverpool was the main port. Plenty moved on of course but obviously a certain percentage "stuck" (as Liverpool was an industrial city and employed them as labourers).

'member in the best movie ever Titanic, the Irish guy Tommy insists that "Irishmen built this ship" even though it was built in Liverpool. That's because by the time Titanic was being built, pretty much the entirety of the manual labour in the Liverpool ship building industry was Irish.

Interesting addition: On a grander scale, it's a similar reason that a huge proportion of the Irish-American population is in the New York / Boston / New England area. Carried on from Liverpool across the Atlantic during the famine and settled in the areas that British ships were docking.

That might wash if you didn't post on the

'are you psychic' thread and 'are you a racist thread' where you responded to a post I made last night, but you never bothered with this thread you made yourself?

and you still haven't acknowledged the replies.....just rude

I didn’t know I was up against the TiBB court of stalking and pure rationality. I’ll have to adjust my seriousness then won’t I.

if you make a thread, showing some interest in the responses is just common courtesy, I asked him the reason for him making the thread out of interest myself, I am not forcing him to answer

Well it seems the lynch mob came out because he didn't respond within x number of hours.

Bit ridiculous tbh.

Not as though he made an offensive comment then did a runner.
