The resolution insists that any future trade deal between the US and Britain must protect the Good Friday Agreement. Speaking following the passing of the resolution Sinn Fein President Mary Lou McDonald TD said: “Over the past twenty-five years, United States Presidents and political leaders have been central to the Irish Peace process and the Good Friday Agreement. "That special relationship endures and crosses party political lines. "A future trade deal between the US and Britain post Brexit is the responsibility of the US Congress. "Today the congress passed a resolution to oppose a hard border on the island of Ireland and supported the right to national self-determination in line with provisions of the Good Friday Agreement. "The Congress also insisted that any new trade deal with Britain must be contingent on meeting the obligations of the Good Friday Agreement including the continued incorporation into law of the European Convention on Human Rights. “I would like to thank Rep. Tom Suozzi for introducing this resolution and Rep. Peter King for his bipartisan sponsorship.

Worsham A Thesis in the Field of International Relations for the Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University May 2019 © 2019 Nicole A. Worsham Abstract While Northern Ireland has experienced a period of relative peace since the signing of the Good Friday Agreement in 1998, entrenched, age-old tensions persist between those of opposing political persuasions, and between those of different religions. Those tensions continue to manifest themselves in ways which disprove the notion that Northern Ireland is in a post-conflict era. Further, demographic shifts, social changes, and external pressures make the status quo in Northern Ireland untenable. Profound uncertainty over Brexit now threatens the structure and foundation of government, and, perhaps of more immediate concern, the devolved local Executive and Assembly of Northern Ireland have collapsed, with little evidence that local government may be restored in the near term.

  • 2021 June 21 IUA Future of Ireland Speech by Mary Lou Mcdonald TD
    Address by Sinn Féin Leader, Mary Lou McDonald TD Irish Universities Association ‘The future of Higher Education in Ireland’ Monday, 21st June 2021 Thank you to the IUA for this opportunity to speak with you about the future of Higher Education in Ireland. I am very conscious of the fact that I address you today not only as Leader of the opposition but as the Leader of a party whose firm intention it is to lead government. I want to say at the outset that I see higher education and research as being critical to shaping a better future for all the people of our island. I have always believed that the importance and value of education, of building knowledge and fostering academic curiosity can never be overstated. Education is after all not only the best way of changing the lives of individuals, it is the best way of changing the world and creating a more equal society. Encouraging and fuelling cutting edge research and scientific endeavour is the best way to overcome the challenges facing all of humanity. If anybody was in any doubt about this reality, then surely the development of Covid-19 vaccines - and indeed the multitude of ways medical science has risen to challenge posed by the pandemic - has put paid to any misgivings. At the root of this success is independent thinking and intellectual creativity. However, as we forge forward with fostering advancements in these areas, we must also guard against a hegemony that suggests higher education is solely about scientific research, technology, commerce or engineering.
