L’Irlande du Nord face au Brexit : une menace pour le processus de paix et la frontière ouverte avec l’Irlande ? Carine Berberi Introduction 1 In Northern Ireland, the debate on the EU Referendum gave rise to specific issues. Some arguments were similar to those heard in the other nations of the UK. Thus, the Leave side claimed that Brexit would enable Northern Ireland to control immigration or to prosper outside an increasingly unaccountable EU while the Remain side insisted a lot on the economic benefits of EU membership or of the EU single market – economic factors were especially important among border communities owing to the trade ties between Ireland and the UK.

I ask members if they wish to make any further suggestions or amendments to the report. Mr Wells: We have had a long and detailed examination of Jim's Bill, and members and other MLAs have made very legitimate suggestions. I thought that it was worth including a paragraph in the report to show that numerous amendments have been offered by the Bill's sponsor to try to reach a consensus on it. The Bill is very different from the document that was presented at First Stage, so I thought that it would be useful to put that into the executive summary to indicate that process. It shows the health of the Committee and the fact that it has been a good revising chamber for what is very important legislation. Mr Frew: I would tend to agree with that. I think that the Committee should acknowledge the movement that has been made with the Bill from when it was first introduced in the Assembly.

  • CNI -Press Watch Feb 24
    Press Watch Feb. 24 ! CNI PRESS WATCH - Getting ready to be governed by Sinn Fein in the Republic Politics is a strange business. One word and one man’s name that were almost entirely unknown a few years ago now look as if they are going to change modern Irish politics and history: they are ‘Brexit’ and ‘Maurice McCabe’ writes Andy Pollak. The British exit from the EU is the new and deeply unsettling reality that will dominate the politics and economics of this island, north and south, for many years to come. And more immediately, the ramifications of the nauseating campaign by senior echelons of the Garda Siochana to destroy the life and career of an honest, whistle-blowing police sergeant (if this turns out to be true), which will soon end the long career of the Taoiseach, Enda Kenny, bring us closer than ever before to a mould-breaking general election in the Republic. [email protected] Page !1 Press Watch Feb. 24 The breaking of the mould, I believe, will be the entry for the first time of Sinn Fein into government in the Republic as a minority partner. Mary Lou McDonald, the favourite to succeed Gerry Adams as leader of the party in the South, has said it is now open to this option. And the electoral arithmetic points to a Fianna Fail-Sinn Fein coalition as the most likely outcome of an election in the near future. Fianna Fail leader Micheál Martin has so far set his face against such an outcome, determined that an alliance with Sinn Fein would not see his constitutional republican party suffer the same fate as the SDLP in the North.
