Sinn Féin's Upbeat Mood Ahead of Ard Fheis

Ask politicians what the mood is in their party ahead of an Ard Fheis , the word you'll hear back from many is"upbeat".

Recent elections in the North have also proved successful, as it emerged as the largest party in both Stormont and at local government level. This time though, they'll argue that there is a genuine feeling that the game has changed, and Sinn Féin is poised to make meaningful gains. Some politicians in the party also believe that Sinn Féin was seen as"too negative", and many felt it didn't offer solutions.Senior figures will also acknowledge however that national polling numbers may not reflect the party's support at local Government level. Ultimately time will tell.

Since 2004, when party leader Mary Lou McDonald was first elected to Europe, Sinn Féin has been a member of the Left Group. The group has a broad mix of views, and there can be significant variation in how its MEPs vote.
