Unionism

The DUP, now dominant in Unionism, have been running strong on 'Unionist unity' in the most recent period, challenging the UUP to agree joint candidates in the nationalist-held seats of Fermanagh-South Tyrone and South Belfast, and even hinting that they might stand aside unilaterally in the absence of a formal deal.

We now have the room and freedom to decide exactly what kind of Unionism we wish to see developing within our part of the United Kingdom - the communal “Ulster Prods only” option on offer from the DUP (and TUV), or the secular, wider, multi-cultural United Kingdom version that potentially may arise from the Conservative/Ulster Unionist Party link-up.

In England, where class consciousness is more developed, the name "Unionism" has been replaced by "The New Unionism," the main object of which is "to capture existing social structures in the interests of the wage - earners."
