Default Ireland power share split

What will this mean? Another push for independence like Scotland?



'Power-sharing has collapsed in Northern Ireland, ending more than a decade of joint-rule between unionist and nationalist politicians.

Sinn Fein’s Martin McGuinness resigned as Deputy First Minister last Monday. The party had until midday to nominate a replacement for him, however in a midday motion in the devolved parliament, they have refused to do so. This means the Northern Ireland Assembly can no longer continue to govern.

At 5pm today,Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, James Brokenshire, will have the authority to call for fresh elections, in the hope of returning a new government to parliament.'
