Robyn, from Armagh, said it was “really good” that she was going to have a say “even if it’s quite small”. Caoimhe, who is also from the south of the city, said she wanted to be represented, “even if Northern Ireland does have a very small role in Westminster”.Clodagh, Iona and James said they would be going to the polls on 4 July
Clodagh said she believed future elections could be telling about a changing Northern Ireland, even if that change is happening “slowly”.
