Sinn Féin

Irish left-wing nationalists Sinn Fein demanded a place in Ireland's next government on Feb. 25 at a packed rally in Dublin, saying the country's two dominant centre-right parties were trying block voters' demand for change.

Unlike Greece, Ireland had its civil war immediately after the war of independence in 1922. The cause was the peace treaty between Britain and Ireland which agreed on the partition of the island, with six counties (Ulster) remaining in the UK and 26 becoming, eventually, the Republic of Ireland.

Northern Ireland's Sinn Fein accused British Prime Minister Theresa May on July 5 of setting the peace process back decades after a further delay in talks to form a new government for the province.

Michelle O'Neill, Sinn Fein's leader, said an agreement between May and the Democratic Unionist Party's 10 MPs in the London parliament to prop up her minority government was at fault.

Theresa May faced a backlash from republican parties at a series of meetings in Downing Street on Thursday over her plan to strike a deal with Northern Ireland's Democratic Unionist party to prop up her minority Conservative government, reported The Guardian.

Theresa May has struck a deal with the Democratic Unionists that will allow her to form a government, sources have confirmed.

It follows extensive talks with the DUP late into the night. Party figures say they have been driven on by their dismay at the possibility of Jeremy Corbyn becoming prime minister.

Northern Ireland has the right to leave the United Kingdom and join the European Union as part of the Republic after Brexit, ministers have conceded for the first time, writes The Times.

Irish Public Expenditure Minister Brendan Howlin asked constituents to consider the events leading up to and following the rise and leadership of the Greek Radical Left Coalition (SYRIZA). Laying bare his government’s strategy to win a second term in office, he outlined a 2016 budget promising fiscal restraint and stability.

Northern Ireland's political parties began talks on Sept. 21 to try to save their power-sharing government after revelations about the involvement of Irish nationalist militants in a murder prompted the pro-British first minister to step aside.

Sisyphus is the name of a king in Greek mythology. Accordingly, he was punished and condemned by gods to roll an immense boulder up a hill, only to watch it roll back down and then to repeat this action forever. Again and again.

London and Dublin will hold further talks with Northern Ireland's political parties to try to avert a crisis over an IRA-linked murder that has led to calls to suspend Belfast's parliament, the British government said on Aug.1.
