Independent Nationalist

Independent Nationalist

Independent Nationalist was a political title frequently used by Irish nationalists when contesting elections to the House of Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland not as members of the Irish Parliamentary Party, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

In the main, but certainly not always, such Independent Nationalist candidates were either the Healyite Nationalists, supporters of Timothy Michael Healy or the O'Brienite Nationalists, supporters of William O'Brien.

Some others were elected as Independent Nationalists outside of the above groupings, such as Timothy Harrington (1900) & (1906), Joseph Nolan (1900), D.D. Sheehan (1906), Laurence Ginnell (1910), William Redmond and James Cosgrave (1923), Michael O'Neill (1951), John Hume (1969), Paddy O'Hanlon (1969).
