The Daily PollPoll: Would you have voted for or against the Anglo-Irish Treaty?
The Treaty was passed by a narrow margin of just seven votes in Dáil Éireann on 7 January 1922.
LATE ON THE night of 7 January, 1922 – after a month of bitter debates – the members of the 2nd Dáil voted to ratify the The Anglo Irish Treaty.
The vote failed to prevent a Civil War but it remains perhaps the most pivotal moment in Ireland’s modern history.
So today we’re asking: Would you have voted for or against the Anglo-Irish Treaty?
