 Labour In Northern Ireland------------View Update
But these prospects were destroyed that year by the constitutional crisis caused by Ireland declaring itself a Republic and leaving the Commonwealth, and by the whipping up of nationalist hysteria in the Anti-Partition Campaign, which included the Irish Labour Party in its ranks.
After partition in 1921, despite the fact that Northern Ireland remained part of the United Kingdom (and was not in the Home Rule Ireland envisaged in 1913-14), Labour in Northern Ireland continued to be summarily rejected by the Labour Party.
When the Belfast Labour Party (formed in 1917) applied for affiliation to the Labour Party in 1919 its application was rejected and referred to the then Irish Labour Party & TUC (EC Minutes 3/06/1919).

 The Connolly-Walker Controversy: On Socialist Unity in Ireland
The Socialist Party of Ireland considers itself the only International Party in Ireland, since its conception of Internationalism is that of a free federation of free peoples, whereas that of the Belfast branches of the I.L.P. seems scarcely distinguishable from Imperialsim, the merging of subjugated peoples in the political system of their conquerors.
For years that Party appealed in vain to the workers, with the result that in 1909 the Scottish societies agreed to affiliate with the British Labour Party and their national organisation, whilst the delegates to the Portsmouth Conference (theoretically Home Rulers), unanimously adopted this policy.
We, of the Socialist Party of Ireland, now, as in the past, hold it to be our duty to assist and foster every tendency of organised Labour in Ireland to found a Labour Party capable of fighting the capitalist parties of Ireland upon their own soil.
