ANGLO-IRISH AGREEMENT

Early day motion 1045, tabled 17 November 2010 by Jeffrey Donaldson (DUP). Signed by 7 members.

That this House notes that Lady Thatcher in 1998 disavowed the Anglo-Irish Agreement and said that Enoch Powell and others had been right to oppose it; recalls that the agreement was strongly opposed by a clear majority of people in Northern Ireland; recognises that the accord failed in all of its proclaimed objectives, not least in its goal of strengthening democratic, non-violent constitutional nationalism within Northern Ireland over sectarian, Republican terrorism and its political proxies; and welcomes the fact that it has now been eclipsed.

Signatures by party: DUP 5, Conservative 2.
