Parliament of Ireland: Is It Overlooked?
The Parliament of Ireland existed for 500 hundreds and constitutes a big part of the parliamentary and representative style of governance in Ireland. It was also a racist, sectarian, classist, undemocratic system that facilitated English minority rule in Ireland. When the Roman Catholic Relief Act 1793 was passed the Parliament was almost immediately dissolved, revealing its true purpose. But I can't help but feel that hundreds of years of debate there must have been some parliamentarians worthy of remembering with appropriate qualifications.
