Proceeding contribution from Gregory Campbell (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 8 January 2020. It occurred during Debate on Northern Ireland (Executive Formation etc) Act 2019.
Northern Ireland (Executive Formation etc) Act 2019
A few moments ago, the hon. Gentleman referred to the outcome of the general election in Northern Ireland and to the number of pro-Union and anti-Union people returned to the House. Does he accept that when I was first elected 18 years ago the combined percentage of people voting for united Ireland candidates came to 42% and that in December last month it was 39%? The vote for united Ireland parties has gone down in those 18 years. He has just spoken about what might happen after an election to the Assembly, but will he outline how he thinks the problems would change, whatever the make-up of those dealing with the problems?
