Sinn Féin won 73 of Ireland's 106 seats in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland parliament at the general election in December 1918 and many of the seats it won were uncontested. Sinn Féin was boosted by the anger over the execution of Rising leaders, even though before the executions, the Roman Catholic hierarchy, the Irish Independent newspaper (the biggest selling daily newspaper in Ireland then and now) and many local authorities actually called for the mass execution of Rising leaders. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Sinn_F%C3%A9in

Boston.com / News / Boston Globe / Opinion / Editorials / Message to Sinn Fein Sinn Fein is supposedly ready to join as part of a broader agreement, but acceptance of the Police Service should not have to wait on other issues. The chief roadblock to acceptance by Catholics is Sinn Fein's refusal to join either the Policing Board, which oversees the overall force, or the 26 district partnerships, which deal with local issues.

gasf.html Sinn Fein was a constitutional party, and in fact, at the British general elections in 1918, Sinn Fein won the majority of seats throughout the island of Ireland, and it was that which gives them the animus to conduct a violent campaign against the British in the War of Liberation. Sinn Fein's political role was never important until the beginning of The Troubles, because it had been the militants, the military types, who were in command inside the Republican movement. The decision by the Sinn Fein conference in 1986, that they would take their seats if elected in the south of Ireland, in the Irish Republic, was one of the most historic decisions ever taken by the Republican movement. www.pbs.org /wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/ira/conflict/gasf.html   (280 words)

Telegraph News Sinn Fein's four MPs were last night stripped of House of Commons allowances worth around £444,000 a year because of their party's links to an IRA bank robbery. But in 2001, as a concession to Sinn Fein that was described at the time as part of the process of "normalising politics in Northern Ireland", Labour changed the Commons rules to allow the four Sinn Fein MPs full allowances and office facilities. A Tory proposal to increase the punishment, by banning the Sinn Fein MPs from access to offices in the Commons, was defeated by Labour and Liberal Democrat MPs. www.telegraph.co.uk /news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2005/03/11/nfein11.xml&sSheet=/news/2005/03/11/ixnewstop.html   (1771 words)

The Epoch Times Sinn Fein's Adams Says IRA May Cease to Exist The IRA and Sinn Fein, which draw their support from the British province's Catholic minority, have been plunged into crisis by the fatal stabbing of father-of-two Robert McCartney by a gang which included IRA members, outside a Belfast pub. Noting that this is the 100th anniversary year of the founding of Sinn Fein, Adams said that the party's foes recognize that "Sinn Fein is a growing vehicle" and the majority of Irish people support its objectives.

Sinn Fein - Northern Ireland - Worldpress.org Sinn Féin is unique in that it fields candidates in both the Irish Republic (which constitutes the greater part of Ireland—26 of the 32 counties, all overwhelmingly Catholic—that gained independence in 1922) and the United Kingdom (the official name for the Union of Great Britain and Northern Ireland). While Sinn Féin (Gaelic for "Ourselves Alone") has committed itself to achieving a united Ireland through political means, two events last month serve to illustrate the ambiguities of a party wedded to the painful past of Northern Ireland, yet committed to a future that is free of the violent past. Last but not least, Sinn Fein is no longer the political wing of an active terrorist movement."

Sinn Fein sidelined in US- The Times of India The reversal in Sinn Fein's fortunes is due to the unrelenting campaign mounted by the girlfriend and sisters of Robert McCartney, a Belfast father of two knifed to death by an IRA gang six weeks ago. Sinn Fein has had to call off a series of St Patrick's Day fundraising events in the US this week as pressure on Gerry Adams, the party president, spreads across the Atlantic. The events have been downgraded to speaking engagements after Adams was advised he would not be given permission to raise money in America because the IRA has come under heavy criticism for its involvement in bank robbery, money-laundering and murder. timesofindia.indiatimes.com /articleshow/1050466.cms   (1771 words)
