On this episode off the Irish History Show, we covered part two of our series on the history of Irish elections. We looked at the Protestant Ascendency in the 18th century and the Penal Laws. The contentious 1713 General Election and the riots that took place in Dublin and how the Irish Parliament lagged behind Westminster in terms of electoral reform.
We looked at party politics in Ireland, the growth of the Patriot movement and the Constitution of 1782.
We looked at the Act of Union and Daniel O'Connell's famous election to Westminster leading to Catholic Emancipation in 1829.
