British policy concerning Ireland

It means, the British ruling class didn't let the Irish people had equal rights with the British. And as a consequence, the Irish immigrated into Europe and other countries because of bad conditions made by Great Britain. Also one of the general directions in policy of the British ruling class was not to admit of friendly relations between the British workers and the Irish people. It is evident, that this author sympathises with the Irish. Value of this resource can be reduced, perhaps, because the author is not quite impartial.
             As for Jack Mitchell in his article "Orangeism in Ireland- there was described colonial policy of Great Britain without bias. Great Britain used religion in own aims. As everybody knows, the most terrible and the most ruthless wars are religious wars. From this article we can see, what a great colonial empire was Great Britain. When Great Britain was not able to manage Ireland, it partitioned Ireland and took northern part of Ireland, which was the most developed. The author has unbiased attitude to both islands. It is value of the resource. .

             Chapter I.
             I.1.The 'Anglo-Irish Treaty', which was agreed between Collins and the British government, replaced the Dublin Home-Rule Parliament which had been created by the Government of Ireland Act. The new Act created an Ireland which was much more independent than it would have been under pure Home Rule, and certainly much more independent than the bit of Ireland ruled by the Northern Ireland government. The new country was to be called the 'Irish Free State' and would have its own army, although it would remain within the British Commonwealth. This is a similar status to that which Canada has today. Britain would also have a representative in Ireland and would keep some naval bases in Irish waters. The treaty also set up a Boundary Commission which was to fine-tune the border to take account of Unionist/Nationalist communities close to it.
