Senate of Northern Ireland - Political complexion
The refusal of Irish nationalist politicians to sit in the House of Commons of Northern Ireland meant that the electorate for the Senate was overwhelmingly unionist. With the addition of the (guaranteed to be) Unionist Lords Mayor, due to gerrymandering in Belfast Corporation and Londonderry Corporation the upper house proved to be even more heavily unionist than the lower house. Unusually however a Nationalist is recorded as having been deputy speaker at one stage.
The precise political make-up of the Senate is however impossible to clarify with certainty. Such was its low profile that the political allegiances of members were not recorded either in official records or in media coverage and records of the House other than Hansard reports of debates, are sparse.
