The members of the First Dáil, known as Teachtaí Dála (TDs), were the 101 Members of Parliament (MPs) returned from constituencies in Ireland at the 1918 United Kingdom general election. In its first general election, Sinn Féin won 73 seats and viewed the result as a mandate for independence; in accordance with its declared policy of abstentionism, its 69 MPs refused to attend the British House of Commons in Westminster, and established a revolutionary parliament known as Dáil Éireann. The other Irish MPs — 26 unionists and six from the Irish Parliamentary Party (IPP) — sat at Westminster and for the most part ignored the invitation to attend the Dáil. Thomas Harbison, IPP MP for North East Tyrone, did acknowledge the invitation, but "stated he should decline for obvious reasons". The Dáil

  • Cette page liste les cent cinq députés élus lors des Élections générales britanniques de 1918. Le Sinn Féin apparait comme la principale force politique sur l'île d'Irlande mais refuse de siéger à la Chambre des communes du Royaume-Uni à Londres. À la place, les élus du Sinn Féin décident de constituer leur propre parlement à Dublin, le Dáil Éireann. Cette nouvelle assemblée se réunit pour la première fois le 21 janvier 1919 à Mansion House. Les autres députés refusent de participer à ce Parlement et siègent comme à l'accoutumée à Westminster (fr)
