She warns that Northern Ireland’s future may lie in separation from Britain, though she remains open to working with the next prime minister. Other leaders echo her frustration, citing unfulfilled promises and a failure to tackle the fallout from Brexit’s Northern Ireland Protocol. While some, like Claire Hanna, note Starmer’s greater engagement with Ireland, the dominant message is clear: Westminster must treat Northern Ireland as a full, equal partner. The debate centers on sovereignty, funding, and whether the next government will truly prioritize Northern Ireland’s unique constitutional and economic challenges.
