  • LGBTQ Election 2015 Update1
    LGBTQ EQUALITY & Northern Ireland’s Political Parties An independent survey General Election 2015 UPDATED VERSION (1) In April 2015 I emailed all the political parties in Northern Ireland that have candidates standing the the 2015 General Election. I enclosed a list of questions about their policies and active records on important lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans* and queer issues. The following pages contain the original information and questions sent to the parties, along with their replies and some additonal facts about each party’s record on LGBTQ rights. All replies are printed exactly as received, except where editied (with due respect and care for key facts) to keep them roughly around the requested 150 word limit. Parties are listed in the order their answers were returned. Where parties have not responded, I have researched their available policies, manifestos and records online and compiled some information. While most of us who identfy as LGBT or Q are unlikely to vote based on a party’s LGBTQ policies alone, it does help to know what each party thinks of some of the issues that effect our lives. And, more importantly, what they have already done and what they plan to do to tackle some of the serious problems caused by homophobia and transphobia; invisibility; institutionalised discrimination and exclusion. I hope that it will be updated and added to over time. This is an independent survey. It has no agenda other than to give each party an opportunity put on paper what they intend to do to help us build a more equal Northern Ireland in terms of sexual orientation and gender identity.

  • Laneside, Then Left a Bit? Britain's Secret Political Talks with Loyalist
    Dr Tony Craig October 2012 [email protected] Laneside, then left a bit? Britain’s secret political talks with Loyalist paramilitaries in Northern Ireland, 1973-76. Abstract This article examines talks that took place between British government officials and loyalist paramilitary groups in Northern Ireland at a critical moment in the most recent Troubles. In particular, this article describes talks that took place secretly at the Northern Ireland Office’s ‘Laneside’ building, a secluded suburban house used by British diplomats and MI6 officers on the shores of Belfast Lough between 1971 and 1976. Drawing on both recently released archive material as well as interviews with those who worked at and visited Laneside, this article explores what went on at these talks and analyses their outcomes from three different perspectives. This article demonstrates that the most accurate perspective from which to view what occurred in these meetings is neither top-down (government led), nor bottom-up (paramilitary led), but one that looks at what went on there as part of a conversation which both sets of participants for a time found useful. For the Loyalists, Laneside had a role as a venue to think about strategy (rather than negotiate ends). For the British these were conversations that were useful in furnishing their understanding of loyalism, and as a place where policies could be explained and problems better understood. Looking at what occurred at Laneside as a semi-autonomous governmental body in Northern Ireland reveals key insights into both the loyalist paramilitaries’ political ideas as well as the aims of British policy in Northern Ireland.

    HHooww longlong areare yyouou preparedprepared toto wwaitait forfor benefitsbenefits forfor oourur ccommunity?ommunity? 2003 ELECTION MANIFESTO PROGRESSIVE UNIONIST PARTY Contents Introduction . .Page 2 Manifesto . .Page 3 Progressive Principles . .Page 8 The Candidates . .Page 9 Contacts “Old style traditional politics isn’t working for the people of Northern Ireland. It’s time to make a change.” PROGRESSIVE UNIONIST PARTY Page 1 Introduction Introduction by David Ervine. Leader of the Progressive Unionist Party. For the past four years Unionism has been riven by disagreement on our future and the success or failure of the Good Friday Agreement. Division over Pro and Anti Agreement views has left our community with nothing but low morale. Today those divisions should be behind us. The position of the Progressive Unionist Party is as ever Pro Union. We have a clear vision for the future of Northern Ireland within the Union and a definitive strategy to drive that vision. We demand real outcomes for our people. Grandstanding has continually failed us bringing with it only empty victories, division and apathy. The Progressive Unionist Party believes in accepting realities, telling the truth and providing leadership in these difficult times. In the present atmosphere a doom and gloom assessment may be popular but it will achieve nothing for our community. We will be left in the hands of legislators, far removed from the hopes and fears of the Unionist populace. That does not amount to effective political leadership. A politician should bring principle into practice. Everyone in society can see what’s wrong; people elect their politicians to right those wrongs.
