The Party in Britain
In addition to the organisations in Ireland outlined above, the term Nationalist Party was also used to describe the party run in Liverpool during the 1920s by T.P. O'Connor, MP for the Liverpool Scotland division. After O'Connor's death in 1929, no candidate stood in the ensuing by-election to succeed him in the Irish Nationalist interest.
