The upcoming Westminster election is an opportunity for the people of Newry & Armagh to reject the reckless Tory/DUP Brexit, Sinn Féin MP Mickey Brady has said.
Speaking after his selection as Sinn Féin candidate for Newry & Armagh tonight, the sitting MP said:
“As we hurtle towards a crash out Brexit spurred on by the chaos at Westminster and the reckless actions of Boris Johnson, an election looms.
“That election will be our opportunity to reject the Tory/DUP Brexit and drive forward momentum for Irish Unity.
“In June 2017, the nationalist people sent a powerful message by turning its back on Westminster and returning seven Sinn Féin MPs.
“Given the catastrophe that Westminster is attempting to force upon our island it is vital that people here in the border constituency of Newry/Armagh continue to show Dublin, Europe and the world that we still reject Brexit, borders and the DUP.
“That is the message I will be taking to the EU tomorrow – Ireland cannot be collateral damage.”
