And Northern Ireland has a parliament to this very day, as do Scotland and Wales.

The United Kingdom is made up of four countries: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland (the six counties of the north of Ireland).

The NI parliament just gets boycotted by its members, whenever they're trying to get their own way against Westminster, or when they really can't get along with each other, or when they want Westminster to force through a contentious issue (e.g. legalisation of abortion) to avoid losing voters by doing it themselves.
