Sir, – Noting the claim by Davy Stockbrokers that Sinn Féin “does not plan to fundamentally change Ireland’s economic policy” and, given that the economy is the most influential system in the country, it is hard to see how the party can brand itself as the party of change (“London investors told Sinn Féin-led government would be ‘more New Labour than Corbyn Labour’”, News, May 7th). It is also noteworthy that Pearse Doherty is warning against premature action on a referendum on a united Ireland. It is ironic that People Before Profit, which advocates left-wing economic policies, sees Sinn Féin as a party with which it wishes to have a voting pact. – Yours, etc,
