McBride
1904‐88
Irish lawyer and politician. Born to John MacBride, who participated in the 1916 Easter Rising and was executed by the British Army, and Maud Gonn MacBride, a women's leader in the independence movement, he played an active role as an IRA leader from an early age. After the establishment of the Constitution in 1937, he became critical of the IRA's activities, and in 1939, he broke off his ties with the IRA in protest against the bombing campaign against Britain. He later became famous as a lawyer, defending republicans in court, but in 1946 he founded the People's Party, became a member of Parliament, and in 1948 formed the first coalition government with the Fine Gael Party, becoming Foreign Minister (1948-51).
