The Patriot Parliament is the name given to the Irish Parliament called by James II during the 1689 to 1691 war in Ireland . The first since 1666, it held only one session, from 7 May 1689 to 20 July 1689.
The Commons was 70 members short since there were no elections in Fermanagh and Donegal , while its members were overwhelmingly Old English and Catholic. Sir Richard Nagle was elected Speaker while the Lords was led by Baron Fitton ; it contained five Protestant peers and four Church of Ireland bishops, including Anthony Dopping, Bishop of Meath , who acted as leader of the opposition.[2]
Members of the Lords
Fitton spent much of his adult life in prison for criminal libel; allegedly selected by James because he was a Protestant, he promptly converted to Catholicism. It included five Protestant peers, Granard, Longford, Barrymore, Howth and Rosse, who was Tyrconnell's son-in-law, plus four Church of Ireland bishops; Anthony Dopping, Bishop of Meath , acted as leader of the opposition.[2]
The members of the House of Lords are as follows:[4]
Members of the Commons
The House was 70 members short, since no elections were held in the northern provinces of Fermanagh and Donegal . Six members were Protestant, the remaining 224 Catholic, a minority being Gaelic or 'Old Irish', while the majority were from the Old English Catholic elite. The Speaker or leader was Sir Richard Nagle , a wealthy Catholic lawyer and close ally of Tryrconnell.
