Due to the discriminatory penal laws, the Irish Parliament at the time was exclusively Anglican Protestant. Their main achievement was the Constitution of 1782, which gave Ireland legislative independence.

The name was then used from the 1720s to describe Irish supporters of the British Whig party, specifically th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
