  • The Death and Funeral of Edward Carson
    The death and funeral of Edward Carson Edward Carson had contracted bronchial pneumonia in June 1935 but by July he was out of danger. During this period Dr Charles D’Arcy, the Church of Ireland Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland, paid a visit to see his fellow Dubliner. Carson confided to the Primate, ‘I have seen much to shake my faith and what remains with me is no more than I learned at my mother’s knee: “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son …”’. The Archbishop assured Ned, his old friend, that John 3:16 was ‘enough’. While Carson recovered, his health was nevertheless fatally weakened. By the early autumn his strength began to ebb away and at 8:00 on the morning of 22 October 1935 at Cleve Court, a Queen Anne house in the Isle of Thanet, Kent, Carson died. Carson had left no instructions in his will as to where he wished to be buried but in conversation with Lord Craigavon (as Sir James Craig had become in 1927) he had expressed a desire to be buried in the land, in Craigavon’s words, for which ‘he fought so long, so valiantly and so successfully’. In a broadcast the Prime Minister announced that the Northern Ireland Government would provide a state funeral and that Carson would be buried St Anne’s Cathedral. Craigavon introduced special legislation in the Northern Ireland House of Commons to enable the burial to take place in the Cathedral. The legislation passed through all its stages there and in the Senate in one sitting.

  • From Ulster to Northern Ireland, 1600–1925 Unit 2: 1700–1914
    KEY STAGE 3: FROM ULSTER TO NORTHERN IRELAND, 1600–1925 UNIT 2: 1700–1914 UNIT 2: UNIT DESCRIPTION The activities in this unit aim to help pupils learn about and evaluate 1700–1914 the relative importance of each of these three historical periods in the process leading to partition and the creation of Northern Ireland: • 1700–1800: Penal Laws, 1798 Rising, Act of Union 1800 • 1800–1900: Nationalism and Unionism • 1900–1914: The Home Rule Crisis Unit 2 begins in the period after King William III’s victories of 1689–1691. Pupils will learn how the most powerful elements of the Protestant minority in Ireland set out to secure their position against the Catholic majority. They did this by introducing a series of Penal Laws against Catholics in the Irish Parliament. In 1798, a group of Presbyterians and Catholics joined together in an attempt to establish a secular Irish Republic which supported the ideals of the French revolution in Ireland: namely, a non-sectarian and democratic nation. The rebellion was rapidly suppressed and led to the Act of Union in 1800, which brought Ireland more closely under British control. Whether to preserve, modify or replace this Act defined the terms of political developments in Ireland, including Ulster, during the 19th century. Finally, pupils will discuss and evaluate how the emergence of Home Rule for Ireland as a policy from 1886 stimulated the growth of unionist opposition, reaching a climax in the period 1910–1914. The idea of Ulster being excluded from Home Rule became an aspiration for Ulster unionists and a strong possibility.

  • Members of Parliament Disqualified Since 1900 This Document Provides Information About Members of Parliament Who Have Been Disqu
    Members of Parliament Disqualified since 1900 This document provides information about Members of Parliament who have been disqualified since 1900. It is impossible to provide an entirely exhaustive list, as in many cases, the disqualification of a Member is not directly recorded in the Journal. For example, in the case of Members being appointed 5 to an office of profit under the Crown, it has only recently become practice to record the appointment of a Member to such an office in the Journal. Prior to this, disqualification can only be inferred from the writ moved for the resulting by-election. It is possible that in some circumstances, an election could have occurred before the writ was moved, in which case there would be no record from which to infer the disqualification, however this is likely to have been a rare occurrence. This list is based on 10 the writs issued following disqualification and the reason given, such as appointments to an office of profit under the Crown; appointments to judicial office; election court rulings and expulsion. Appointment of a Member to an office of profit under the Crown in the Chiltern Hundreds or the Manor of Northstead is a device used to allow Members to resign their seats, as it is not possible to simply resign as a Member of Parliament, once elected. This is by far the most common means of 15 disqualification. There are a number of Members disqualified in the early part of the twentieth century for taking up Ministerial Office. Until the passage of the Re-Election of Ministers Act 1919, Members appointed to Ministerial Offices were disqualified and had to seek re-election.
