This article examines the Irish Anti‐Partition League (APL) of Northern Ireland, particularly in South Armagh. It shows that it was inspired by changes in the post‐war world and emphasised nationalist unity, both within Northern Ireland and with nationalists in the South, Great Britain, the USA and the Commonwealth. The content of APL propaganda and the social composition of the league in South Armagh is considered, showing its roots in traditional nationalism, but also its efforts to make a favourable impression on public opinion and the Labour Party in Britain. It considers the impact on the APL of the declaration of a Republic in the South, the 1949 Ireland Act and the anti‐partition campaign of the parties in the South. It shows how frustration led to a new kind of abstentionism in South Armagh and how Stormont MP Charles MacGleenan attempted to gain admission to Dail Eireann
