The Social Democratic and Labour Party (SDLP) is a constitutional nationalist political party of Northern Ireland and for most of the post-war period was the main party of the nationalist (Catholic) population. Although the SDLP has as one aim, a united Ireland, it has maintained a principled opposition to the use of terrorist violence to achieve political ends, and its activists and supporters have suffered violence and intimidation by the IRA and Sinn Fein.
