Unionist parties

Unionist parties are political groups that support maintaining the political union between Ireland (or Northern Ireland) and Great Britain. They generally advocate for staying part of the United Kingdom and emphasize shared institutions, identity, and sovereignty with Britain. These parties oppose plans for Irish independence or unification, often aligning with conservative or pro-British perspectives. Their primary goal is to preserve the current unionist status and often represent the interests of the unionist community in regions like Northern Ireland.
