Why do you rule Northern Ireland?
It is not clear from the question who "you" refers to. Is it the BBC? I think we can rule that out. Is it you and me (the people)? - perhaps. Is it a reference to the British Government? Maybe. The word "rule" is also ambiguous because it means different things to different people, particularly in Northern Ireland. "Rule" usually means "govern". To some people in Northern Ireland, the term refers to the head of state (the Queen) and sovereignty. If that is what is meant by "rule" the question is different but I attempt to cover both points. I begin answering the question by identifying where government power lies. The following is a simplified summary. Most people are aware that the most recent significant constitutional change to Northern Ireland came about through the 'Good Friday' agreement in 1998 which led to the Northern Ireland Act 1998. Under that Act, the Northern Ireland Assembly was created. It has legislative powers in most areas of law and government. It can not legislate on human rights or anything to do with the European Treaties. European Law in Northern Ireland is either made or directed to be made by the European Institutions. Some legislation can not be made because it is excepted or reserved and requires the consent of the Northern Ireland Minister. Northern Ireland has 10 government departments. So long as there is an Executive in Northern Ireland, these departments are run by the ministers from the 12-person executive. At the head of the 12 person executive is the First Minister and deputy first minister. Each of the other 10 ministers run one of the government departments. The Northern Ireland Executive does not control is central taxation, foreign policy and defence. These are the exclusive preserve of the UK Parliament and London - based Government. Northern Ireland is represented in the UK Parliament by its 17 MPs who should represent their constituents on those matters which are not controlled or legislated by the Executive and the Northern Ireland Assembly. When the assembly and the executive are not functioning, as has been the case intermittently during the last 10 years, the Northern Ireland Office takes control. This has happened because there is not yet a stable party political system in Northern Ireland. Until voting patterns in Northern Ireland change, the stresses that have led to this instability will remain. At present, the four main political parties that attract more than 90% of Northern Ireland votes are not capable of attracting significant numbers of voters from a different community. In other words, the Northern Ireland political party system is dominated by the politics of "the flag". It is hard to see how any of those 4 parties, given their history, are capable of becoming cross-community based. It is also hard to see the UK conservative or labour parties either establishing a voter power base in Northern Ireland or forming a political alliance with any significant Northern Ireland party because of their association with a particular community. Northern Ireland voters therefore can not, at present, elect a representative that can significantly influence the UK Government over taxation, foreign policy and defence. That will remain the position for the foreseeable future. The Northern Ireland Act 1998 provides a mechanism to enable Northern Ireland people to decide whether they want to change sovereignty in the future. If there is evidence that a majority of people are likely to want a change in sovereignty, Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, who is obliged to review the situation, must call a referendum. Until that happens, the sovereignty of Northern Ireland remains with the United Kingdom. Have I answered the question? Maybe you could only do that properly if you were to write a lengthy version of the history of Ireland setting out events over centuries leading up to the 1998 position. If you change the question to "Why is government over Northern Ireland as it is today?" there is a short simple answer. It was negotiated just before Easter 1998 and approved by voters across the whole of Ireland in a subsequent referendum.
