Karen Bradley admits she didn’t know anything about Northern Irish politics before she became secretary of state for NI
From iNews: Karen Bradley, secretary of state for Northern Ireland, has said that she didn’t understand the country’s political system until she took on her job.
“I didn’t understand things like when elections are fought, for example, in Northern Ireland – people who are nationalists don’t vote for unionist parties and vice versa. So, the parties fight for election within their own community.”
