        It's fair to assume that if he was Taoiseach the government would have rolled over a long time ago.

        Come on SF. Your voice is necessary in Westminster. You will leave after reunification anyway!

        And correct they are. Ireland needs to be an open, welcoming country .. reflecting how our people were scattered to the 4 corners of the globe

        He’s a great man for worrying about this now. Sinn Fein have never taken seats in Westminster and the people who vote for them know this. Fine gael using silly politics

        Sadly No. As a SF voter, I will not permit my elected representative to take their seat in Westminster. Abstentionism is part of the deal. That said, I wish the Scots & Welsh every success in securing their rightful place amongst the other Nations of the world.
