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

im joking of course

It is essentially "The Ferry" :joker:. 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

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

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.

Yeah, wikipedia (not a great informant I know) has the building of the ship in Belfast Harbour.

But was registered in Liverpool due to that being the location of the White Star Line offices?
