When does northern Ireland vote to become part of Ireland instead of the UK?
A referendum on Irish unity will be held, when it is believed that the majority of people in Northern Ireland want such a referendum to be held (i.e. when Sinn Fein and other nationalists take the majority of seats in the Northern Ireland Assembly). Talks will then be held with the British and Irish governments on holding a referendum and legislation will be introduced to allow a referendum to take place. Once that legislation has been passed the public will then vote on the legislated date on the constitutional future of Northern Ireland. At present unionists hold the majority of seats in the Northern Ireland Assembly. And recent public opinion polls have suggested that the majority of the Northern Ireland's (normally nationalist voting) catholic community want Northern Ireland to remain within the United Kingdom. So it is highly unlikely there will be any vote on Northern Ireland becoming part of Ireland for many years.
