Malachy Conlon
Template:Use dmy dates Template:Use Hiberno-English Malachy Conlon (died 27 March 1950) was a nationalist politician in Ireland.
Conlon strongly believed that there was a need for a membership organisation linking nationalists in Northern Ireland. He pursued this theme during his campaign for the Nationalist Party in South Armagh at the 1945 Northern Ireland general election.[1] During the campaign, which he fought against a Northern Ireland Labour Party incumbent, he stressed the importance of Christianity to Irish identity and contrasted this with what he described as the "flag of the communist Jew".[2]
Following his election, Conlon worked with Eddie McAteer to found the Irish Anti-Partition League in November 1945, and was appointed its full-time Secretary.[1]
