When Assembly members in Northern Ireland are elected they have to declare whether they are a ‘unionist’, a ‘nationalist’, or ‘other’. People have different views about whether this is a good idea. Here are some things that have been said, how much do you agree or disagree with each of these statements?
This is a good system because you can then see if big decisions are getting cross-community support.
