Sinead O’Connor has officially joined the Sinn Fein party, after asking Ireland to start another revolution.
The Nothing Compares 2 U singer has confirmed that she joined the political group after reaching out to Gerry Adams.
“I joined Sinn Fein today,” Sinead said last night.
“Because resolving issue number one is the way to resolve all current issues. Issue number one is we don’t own our country.

“I might not even be the kind of person they want,”she added on Facebook.
“Because I’m gonna write here that I feel the elders of Sinn Fein are going to have to make ‘the supreme sacrifice’Â and step down shortly in the same way the last Pope did.
The 8 Good Reasons singer added that she hopes the party will bring in some new blood, to make the group more appealing.
“There’d be a zillion per cent increase in membership of Sinn Fein if the leadership were handed over to those born from 1983/1985 onward and no one associated in people’s minds with frightful things.”

“Frightful things belong where they are now, in the past. That increase would resolve issue number one.
“Ergo all current issues would be resolved . People are open to it now. A brand new country.
“Run by everyone of every nationality who lives in all of it,” she wrote.
Fans didn’t seem too happy about the news, with many accusing Sinn Fein of being “terrorists”.
“For anyone who is confused, Sinn Fein is no longer associated with the use of violence,” Sinead told fans.
