No Sinn Fein are allowed. They refuse to do so because they believe taking
their seats would be recognising the legitimacy of the UK to govern Northern

No, they're not allowed to. That's because to take your seat at
Westminster you need to swear an oath of allegiance to the queen. If
they were to do so they would obviously be lieing.
