		A few days after potatoes were dug from the ground, they began to turn into a slimy, decaying, flish "mass of rottenness." Expert panels convened to investigate the blight's cause suggested that it was the result of "static electricity" or the smoke that billowed from railroad locomotives or the "mortiferous vapours" rising from underground volcanoes.
		Irish peasants subsisted on a diet consisting largely of potatoes, since a farmer could grow triple the amount of potatoes as grain on the same plot of land.
		Far from being a natural disaster, many Irish were convinced that the famine was a direct outgrowth of British colonial policies.

		The Irish farmers became, as time went on, more dependent on the will of the landlord, and as many of the landlords were absentees there was little opportunity for the formation of bonds of mutual regard and association.
		After the failure of the Irish rebellion and the extinction of the Irish Parliament there was for a time little heard in Ireland of any great political agitation, any agitation for the redress of political grievances or even for the accomplishment of Catholic Emancipation.

		Committees sat to inquire into the effects of the bills; many memorials were read and considered; counsel were heard, both generally on the bills and on their effects on individuals; the debates were long, and it was not till after several conferences between the two houses that the act passed.
		The repeal of those acts by the Irish, as soon as they were in power, seems natural, considering how great and how recent was the injury they inflicted.

	Repeal (Ireland) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Repeal was a demand by Irish nationalist leader Daniel O'Connell (6 August 1775 — 15 May 1847) for the repeal of the Act of Union 1800 which had merged the Kingdom of Great Britain and Kingdom of Ireland to form the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in 1801.
		His repeal campaign failed, in contrast to his earlier campaign for Catholic Emancipation.
		In contrast, later Irish nationalist leaders like Charles Stewart Parnell demanded merely Home Rule, which involved the creation of a subsidiary parliament in Ireland with Ireland remaining part of the United Kingdom.

		Irish as well as English farmers reaped the rewards not only of these tariffs since their domestic grain could be favorably priced, but from the early 19th century wars against France which limited the amount of grain available for importation from the European Continent.

		They were forced to accept lower prices for their grain just as their Poor Tax burden increased dramatically to support the poor in their local areas who were devastated by the Famine.
