  • Political Parties in the Northern Ireland Assembly – the Ulster Unionist Party KEY
    Political Parties in the Northern Ireland Assembly – The Ulster Unionist Party KEY: SO: Sandra Overend SO: I'm Sandra Overend, I am a member of the Ulster Unionist Party, and I represent the constituency of Mid Ulster. What does your Party stand for? Well, the Ulster Unionist Party is a Party of the Union. We believe in… that Northern Ireland is an integral part of the United Kingdom. We're a Party of law and order. And we're very proud of the history of the Ulster Unionist Party and the integral part that, the leading role, that it played in bringing forward the Peace Process back in 1998. How has your Party changed in the last 20 years? Well, Northern Ireland has changed a lot over the past 20 years. And the Party internally has changed a lot. And we have a new generation of elected representatives now. But our principles remain the same, and that Northern Ireland remains a part of the United Kingdom. We want Northern Ireland to flourish. Do you think the Assembly and Executive are effective? The current Assembly and Executive is really very dysfunctional. Back in ‘98, whenever we … we've helped to bring forward the Belfast Agreement..it was built in a certain way to build trust. And, unfortunately, I don't think that trust has been built. And the current dysfunctionality of the Assembly and how Welfare Reform threatens the future of this place, it really isn't where we wanted to see the Assembly to go. What challenges face your Party moving forward? We're moving forward, but we also face the challenges of increasing female representation and getting young people involved in politics.
