Peter Robinson, leader of the majority pro-British Democratic Unionist Party and the government’s first minister resigned in 2015. This made the multiparty executive branch obsolete since it could not function if either of the two largest parties refused to participate. The controversy arose after Kevin McGuigan was murdered and members of the police claimed that the IRA was still active. Proponents argue that leaders from Britain, Ireland and Sinn Fein should start negotiations to repair the peace agreement and restore the power-sharing government. Opponents argue that the murder of Mr. McGuigan proves that there is too much unrest to build a power-sharing government right now.

Ideally, yes. But it needs to be changed so that one party can't bring down the Assembly
@8CWNV9J4yrs4Y
Yes, but a united Ireland but be preferred

I believe two-partisan quotas is a mistake in the first place. NI should be governed same way as every other UK region
@9F2MBPCIndependent1yr1Y
We should just leave them to sort themselves out.

Don't understand the question sorry
@99MR7QK2yrs2Y
Power sharing does not work when one side can hold the assembly hostage
@97VNX5X2yrs2Y
A revised one should be implemented based on demographic changes
Disinterested in Northern affairs - they need to look after themselves and their own affairs.
@8YLXLQPSocial Democrats3yrs3Y
We must preserve the Good Friday Belfast Agreement do the answer your looking for is yes
@8C5RDBV4yrs4Y
Yes, but only in order to maintain peace in the short term. Attempts should be make to promote peaceful unification with dual citizenship and recognition of the cultural differences of the north that both sides can agree on.
Irish reunification shall remove many of the failings of partition
@93K7WFW3yrs3Y
