Why was the act of union bad for Ireland?
Some would argue it was bad, others that it was good. It took power from Ireland, so Ireland was now being ruled from London with no house of parliament in Dublin. Power was centralised. This gave people less say over their affairs. Ireland could no longer pass its own laws. It affected the city of Dublin because many of the wealthier and powerful people living there left Dublin. This affected the economy and the upkeep of the city. Buildings were rented but not maintained by the now absent landlords and many fine buildings suffered and many turned into slums with people living in large groups in these houses. The impact on the rest of the country on the loss of Ireland's power to govern itself were grave too. Some would say that the impact of the famine would not have been as great had more power resided in Ireland at that time.
