Mary Lou McDonald told party members the result of the Northern Ireland Assembly Election in May reflects the “spirit for change'
Sinn Fein leader Mary Lou McDonald has called for a general election in the Republic of Ireland, describing the years of governance by Fianna Fail and Fine Gael as political “hokey pokey”.
Support for Sinn Fein has been growing in recent years, with the party taking 22.3% of first preferences in the 2020 general election. Ms McDonald said that the two main parties in government have “had their time” and their chance, saying it is a time for a new government.“Change can’t be stopped by Fianna Fail and Fine Gael, now so joined at the hip that it doesn’t matter to them which leader is Taoiseach.
“Change can’t be stopped by the chaotic Tories in London either. They can’t run their own country without bringing it to the brink of financial ruin. They certainly have no right to tell the people of Ireland how to run ours.” “A new generation moves together, to a new Ireland where everyone has the chance to realise their dreams. To push the boundaries. To exceed expectations. To succeed. To change Ireland.
