The direct cause of the Great Famine of Ireland was a blight that caused a failure of the potato crop, which many people relied on for the majority of their nutrition. But there is no doubt the resources of the UK could have entirely or mostly prevented the famine itself. https://www.britannica.com/question/How-did-the-potato-blight-happen https://www.ighm.org/learn.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Famine_(Ireland)

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1875522274088120572

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
