Starmer cannot duck and dive on question of Irish reunification, Sinn Fein says

The article discusses Sinn Féin's criticism of UK Labour Party leader Keir Starmer regarding his stance on Irish reunification. Sinn Féin's leader, Mary Lou McDonald, has accused Starmer of evading the issue, particularly after he suggested that a referendum on Irish unity was not on the immediate horizon. This comes in the context of the upcoming UK general election, where Starmer's Labour Party is expected to perform well. McDonald emphasized the importance of addressing the constitutional future of Ireland, pointing out that the Good Friday Agreement provides for a border poll if it appears likely that a majority would support a united Ireland. She also highlighted the need for a mature discussion on the topic, criticizing Starmer for not engaging with the issue seriously. The article also touches on the broader political landscape, including the DUP's stance against the current Northern Ireland Protocol and the potential implications of a Labour government on these matters.
