Election will be '˜opportunity to oppose Brexit' - Michelle O'Neill
Michelle O’Neill said: “Sinn Féin opposed Brexit because it will be disastrous for the people of Ireland, our economy and our public services.
“The people of the North clearly voted to see their future in the European Union in the referendum last June. We have been blatantly ignored by Theresa May since.”

“The Tory party and their polices have been rejected by the people in the north in the past, and will be again in this election,” she said.
“Sinn Féin is ready to contest this election and it will be an opportunity for voters to oppose Brexit and reject Tory cuts and austerity.
“It is an opportunity to progress designated status for the North within the EU and for a future based on equality, respect, integrity and unity.”
