The Irish Republicans fail to acknowledge Westminster as 7 MP’s abstain from attending Westminster

Belfast, North of Ireland -The emphatic victory by Sinn Fein in Northern Ireland was highlighted further by the embarrassing defeat of Nigel Dodds, the Deputy Party Leader of the DUP, by Sinn Fein candidate John Finucane in North Belfast.

With 7 members of parliament representing Northern Ireland, the Republican movement is growing from strength to strength, and the results of the DUP’s selling of their souls to Theresa May is finally becoming apparent as Sinn Fein seeks to become the dominant party in the north of Ireland.

However, Sinn Fein, and all Irish Republicans fail to acknowledge Westminster’s distant grip on the occupied enclave. The 7 MP’s abstain from attending Westminster, and have no right to vote on matters that concern their own constituencies due to the British rule and lack of ability to create devolution of power over to Belfast.

When one considers how important 7 votes could be, not only are the people of the north of Ireland being denied their right to rejoin and reunite the island of Ireland, but they are also denied a voice by Westminster who are happy with the status quo of not having the MP’s attend parliament.

When Stormont was in power, the partnership between Arlene Foster and Martin McGuinness was shaky at best. McGuinness resigned from his post following the Green Energy scandal that still tarnishes Foster, and his unfortunate death came before any resolution to restore Stormont, and hand control back to the people of Belfast, Derry and beyond.

The future now lies in the possibility of a complete breakdown of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. With Scotland more than likely to pursue an IndyRef2, there will also be tones of emulation in Ireland, as the 6 counties occupied by the British seek to become 32 and united with the 26 in the Republic.
