Independent — North Down

Speaking in the House of Commons on 19 October 2026

Debate

Northern Ireland Troubles Bill

Contribution

How can this House support the Government on that when we have a political party called Sinn Féin whose members supported violence and the killing of Royal Ulster Constabulary officers, of Her Majesty’s armed forces personnel and of civilians? How can we stand here in all consciousness and support a Bill that potentially will allow people who supported that in a political party to be on the board? That is just not right.
