Introduction Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Notes Introduction 1. For example, before Walker (2004a) the last book that was written on the UUP was by John Harbinson (1973). Hume (1996) also contains some inter­ esting data but is far from comprehensive. The DUP has had more recent analysis but Bruce (1989) and Smyth, C. (1987) are now over fifteen years old and the party has developed significantly since those books were written. Chapter 1 1. Alvin Jackson has encountered similar difficulties in analysing Unionist historiography. He made the distinction between 'Unionist historians' and 'Historians of Unionism'; one of the key distinctions was a declaration of interest Oackson, 1996, 121). 2. He cites Ronan Bennett and Robert Ballagh, although these are not the only examples that could be utilised, and Ruth Dudley Edwards quotes prominent journalist and writer Tim Pat Coogan as remarking at a conference that Unionists had no culture (Dudley Edwards, 2000, 351). 3. Advert in back of Hume (1996). 4. Ulster Review, Issue 18, Winter 1995/1996. 5. Although one Unionist called his book 'intellectual Lundyism', Alex Kane quoted in Jardin (1997). 6. The book won the prestigious Christopher Ewart-Biggs Memorial Prize. 7.

This would appear to have been at the request of the British, and not Irish, government. See Cochrane (1997, 129-31) for a discussion on an offer made to Molyneaux on Privy Council terms to sign the Agreement in August 1985. 2. For the classic account of Unionist resistance to the third Home Rule bill, see Stewart (1967). 3. The Manifesto said: 'In the absence of devolved government, we will seek to establish one or more elected regional councils with a wide range of powers over local services.' http://www.psr.keele .ac.uk/area/uk/man/con79.htm#ni, accessed on 5 May 2005. 4. The UUUC was formed in January 1974 by the DUP, UUP and VUPP to oppose the Sunningdale Agreement and collapsed following the unsuccessful 1977 strike. 190 Notes 191 5. North Down Association selected him as a candidate in direct violation of Executive orders. 6. Allister is now a DUP MEP. 7. In January 1988, amid allegations of conspiracy and new scientific evidence, the Court of Appeal in London upheld the convictions of the Birmingham Six, who had been convicted of the 1974 Birmingham pub bombings. 8. In March three IRA members are shot dead by the SAS in Gibraltar. The British claim they were planting a bomb but they were unarmed and no explosives were found in the car, although there was other evidence of a plan. The issue is still clouded with controversy today. 9. In late February the Irish government launched an investigation into the killing of Aiden McAnespie who had been killed by the British army on the Northern Irish side of the border and this prompts controversy as the British claim they have sole rights over such an investigation, which concluded that he was killed by a ricochet. 10. In January the then Attorney General Patrick Mayhew announced there would be no prosecutions from the 'shoot to kill' inquiry headed by John Stalker and John Sampson. At the beginning of February there was more controversy as John Stalker alleged he was removed from the inquiry team because the report was about to cause controversy and lead to resignations of senior officials. 11. Further details can be found in Bew and Gillespie (1999, 212-4). Chapter 3 1. Information from www.nilga.org/con_map.php, accessed 20 April 2005. 2. Derived from results on http://www.ark.ac.uk/elections/flgOl.htm, accessed on 5 May 2005. 3. For example, in 1985 Carson Tweedie (UUP) and Dan Murphy (SDLP) both did not stand on this basis (Lurgan and Porta down Examiner, 17 January 1985; Lurgan Mail, 28 March 1985). 4. The reference is to Conor Cruise O'Brien, Irish politician, diplomat and jour­ nalist, whose career has taken him to a position where he has publicly embraced Unionism in his journalism and, most obviously, by joining the UKUP as Chairman. 5. See Ballymena Borough Council, Minutes of the Monthly Meeting of the Council held on Monday 2 December 1996 at 7.30pm in the Council Chamber, Town Hall, Ballymena. Chapter4 1. For examination of the tactical nature of the divisions within Unionism over the Agreement, see Farrington (2001). Porter argues that pro-Agreement Unionists do not have an interpretative framework that differs markedly from anti-Agreement Unionists but I argue that they share an interpretative framework (Porter, 2003, 208). 2. For a general synopsis of Protestant unease with the direction of politics in Northern Ireland, see Dunn and Morgan (1994). 192 Notes 3. This is a slightly expanded taxonomy of my analysis in 2001. 4. Shipley-Dalton has frequently dissented from UUP policy and was the foremost Unionist advocate of the Agreement, (see 2002a, b). 5. However, Malachi O'Doherty argues that the coupling of a constitutional agreement and peace was part of Republican's political strategy and that should not necessarily be seen as one and the same (O'Doherty, 1998, 161-2). 6. For example, Jim Nicholson is typical of most Unionists involved in the talks: 'What actually jettisoned them in my opinion out of the water was when John Hume decided he didn't want an agreement between constitu­ tional nationalism and Unionism and went out and had his famous tete a tete with Gerry Adams and the agreement on an envelope.' Interview with Jim Nicholson, 4 October 2002. 7. Although see Moloney (2002) for what seems a tenuous account that Adams and Father Alex Reid were the initiators in these changes even before the AlA. 8. Unionists are not without reason for this interpretation; Brian Girvin has termed the DSD as 'passive rather than active support for the Union' (Girvin, 2000). 9. Patrick Roche describes 'an increasing exclusion of the pro-Union electorate of Northern Ireland from the bonds of national solidarity' (1998, 6). 10. Perhaps surprisingly, what sounds like a conspiracy theory actually has a large element of truth. The DSD was building on the Hume-Adams docu­ ment, although this was not evident at the time because, in the words of Sean Duignan, aide to Albert Reynolds, 'they were declaring Hume-Adams dead in order to keep it alive'. (Quoted in Mallie and McKittrick, 2001, 130). 11. Part 2 of the Declaration and Pledge of the United Unionists, 1998. 12. De Breadun also quotes a speech at the National Press Club in Washington where Trimble said that after 1921, when Unionists won all the elections, that was 'fine for us but not so fine for other people', (2001, 228).

The UK’s decision to divorce from the European Union has brought significant uncertainty for the country both in domestic and foreign policy and has spurred a national identity crisis across the United Kingdom. The Brexit negotiations themselves, and the consequences of them, put tremendous pressure on already strained international relationships between the UK and other European countries, most notably their geographic neighbour: the Republic of Ireland. The Anglo-Irish relationship is characterized by centuries of mutual antagonism and the development of Irish national consciousness, which ultimately resulted in the establishment of an autonomous Irish free state in 1922.

  • The Outbreak and Development of the 'Troubles'
    Heritage, History & Memory Project (Workshop 3) The outbreak and development of the ‘Troubles’ A presentation by Prof. John Barry followed by a general discussion compiled by Michael Hall ISLAND 115 PAMPHLETS 1 Published March 2019 by Island Publications 132 Serpentine Road, Newtownabbey BT36 7JQ © Michael Hall 2019 [email protected] http://cain.ulst.ac.uk/islandpublications The Fellowship of the Messines Association gratefully acknowledge the support they have received from the Heritage Lottery Fund for their Heritage, History & Memory Project and the associated publications Printed by Regency Press, Belfast 2 Introduction The Fellowship of the Messines Association was formed in May 2002 by a diverse group of individuals from Loyalist, Republican and Trade Union backgrounds, united in their realisation of the necessity to confront sectarianism in our society as a necessary means of realistic peace-building. The project also engages young people and new citizens on themes of citizenship and cultural and political identity. In 2018 the Association initiated its Heritage, History & Memory Project. For the inaugural launch of this project it was decided to focus on the period of the 1960s, the Civil Rights Movement, and the early stages of the ‘Troubles’. To accomplish this, it was agreed to host a series of six workshops, looking at different aspects of that period, with each workshop developing on from the previous one. The format for each workshop would comprise a presentation by a respected commentator/historian, which would then be followed by a general discussion involving people from diverse political backgrounds, who would be encouraged to share not only their thoughts on the presentation, but their own experiences and memories of the period under discussion.

  • Members Imprisonment Since 1979
    Members Imprisonment since 1979 Parliamentary Information List Standard Note: SN/PC/04594 Last updated: 23 January 2008 Author: Reference Services Section In all cases in which Members of either House are arrested on criminal charges, the House must be informed of the cause for which they are detained from their service to parliament. It has been usual to communicate the cause of committal of a Member after his arrest; such communications are also made whenever Members are in custody in order to be tried by naval or military courts-martial, or have been committed to prison for any criminal offence by a court or magistrate. Although normally making an oral statement, the Speaker has notified the House of the arrest or imprisonment of a Member by laying a copy of a letter on the table. In the case of committals for military offences, the communication is made by royal message. Where a Member is convicted but released on bail pending an appeal, the duty of the magistrate to communicate with the Speaker does not arise. The Parliamentary Information List Series cover various topics relating to Parliament; they include Bills, Committees, Constitution, Debates, Divisions, The House of Commons, Parliament and procedure. Also available: Research papers - impartial briefings on major bills and other topics of public and parliamentary concern, available as printed documents and on the Intranet and Internet. Standard notes – less formal briefings, often produced in response to frequently asked questions, mainly accessible via the Intranet. Factsheets – the House of Commons Information Office Factsheets provide brief informative descriptions of various facets of the House of Commons.

  • Rt Hon Rishi Sunak MP Chancellor of the Exchequer HM Treasury 1 Horse Guards Road London SW1A 2HQ
    Rt Hon Rishi Sunak MP Chancellor of the Exchequer HM Treasury 1 Horse Guards Road London SW1A 2HQ Dear Chancellor, Budget Measures to Support Hospitality and Tourism We are writing today as members and supporters of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Hospitality and Tourism ahead of the Budget on 3rd March. As you will of course be aware, hospitality and tourism are vital to the UK’s economy along with the livelihoods and wellbeing of millions of people across the UK. The pandemic has amplified this, with its impacts illustrating the pan-UK nature of these sectors, the economic benefits they generate, and the wider social and wellbeing benefits that they provide. The role that these sectors play in terms of boosting local, civic pride in all our constituencies, and the strong sense of community that they foster, should not be underestimated. It is well-established that people relate to their local town centres, high streets and community hubs, of which the hospitality and tourism sectors are an essential part. The latest figures from 2020 highlight the significant impact that the virus has had on these industries. In 2020, the hospitality sector has seen a sales drop of 53.8%, equating to a loss in revenue of £72 billion. This decline has impacted the UK’s national economy by taking off around 2 percentage points from total GDP. For hospitality, this downturn is already estimated to be over 10 times worse than the impact of the financial crisis. It is estimated that employment in the sector has dropped by over 1 million jobs.

Mike’s vast knowledge of Irish history and sporting history, and his ability to see history through many different perspectives were instrumental in shaping the thesis as far more than a sports history one. It was through conversations with Mike that the concept of looking at partition from many different viewpoints arose.

Conclusion Bibliography Introduction Northern Ireland conflict, called “the Troubles” was the most durable conflict in the Europe since WW2. Before War in Donbass (2014-present), which lead to 9,371 death up to June 3, 20161 it also can be called the bloodiest conflict, but unfortunately The Donbass War snatched from The Troubles “the victory palm” of this dreadful competition. The importance of this issue, however, is still essential and vital because of challenges Europe experience now. Both proxy war on Donbass and recent terrorist attacks had strained significantly the political atmosphere in Europe, showing that Europe is not safe anymore. In this conditions, it is necessary for us to try to assume, how far this insecurity and tensions might go and will the circumstances and the challenges of a international relations ignite the conflict in Northern Ireland again. It also makes sense for us to recognize that the Troubles was also a proxy war to a certain degree 23 Sources, used in this essay are mostly mass-media articles, human rights observers’ and international organizations reports, and surveys made by political scientists on this issue.

The Project title; ‘Terrorism knows NO Borders’ aptly illustrates the broader point that we are seeking to make through our involvement in this work, namely that in the context of Northern Ireland terrorism and criminal violence was not curtailed to Northern Ireland alone but rather that individuals, families and communities experienced its’ impacts across the United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland and beyond these islands. This Memorial Quilt Project does not claim to represent the totality of lives lost across Great Britain and The Republic of Ireland but rather seeks to provide some understanding of the sacrifices paid by communities, families and individuals who have been victimised by ‘Republican’ or ‘Loyalist’ terrorism. SEFF’s ethos means that we are not purely concerned with victims/survivors who live within south Fermanagh or indeed the broader County.
