Sinn Féin taking Westminster seats 'would only heighten political temperature'Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald has defended Sinn Féin's continued abstention from Westminster in light of last night's Brexit votes in the House of Commons I admire Mary Lou’s stance on this & those seeking to change it totally misunderstand the history of Sinn Féin.
