About Sinn Féin

Introduction to Sinn Féin

For 100 years now Sinn Féin has been to the forefront of bringing about change in Ireland. Republicans and Socialists from Constance Markievicz, James Connolly and Liam Mellows to Bobby Sands, Mairéad Farrell and Joe Cahill have brought us closer to our goal of Irish unity and independence.  Today’s generation of republicans continue that work.  

Sinn Féin is now the fastest growing party in Ireland.  We have five Ministers in government in the north, including joint First Minister Martin McGuinness.  We are delivering real change.  We are continuing to build the party across the south and have been leading campaigns for job creation and retention and in defence of public services and local communities.  We have launched major policy documents around job creation and public finance. We have stood up to Fianna Fáil and the Greens and put forward real solutions.

Sinn Féin President Gerry Adams has initiated a renewed campaign around Irish unity to build widespread support in Ireland for re-unification and to bring the Irish diaspora together behind this demand.  We are also continuing to use our experience of conflict resolution to help other peace processes around the world including in the Middle East.

Join with us in building an Ireland of equals.
