Mrs. Robinson

Anyone see Spotlight? Seeing as the original thread was closed.

Now, there are some facts to talk about. Anyone still feeling sympathy for Robinson, or did he come across as someone simply caught out, and trying to garner as much sympath as possible? He has to be gone!

Who really cares?
Seriously, who actually cares apart from the family?

Okay, so don't post if it doesn't concern you. I get a feeling that those who voted him in may well care that he hasn't been playing by the democratic rules expected of him.

Maybe you are someone who doesn't get interested by anything?

I get interested by things that interest me.
But you are right, I shouldn't have posted because it doesn't concern or interest me but I threw caution to the wind & said 'feck it' I'll post a reply.
Apologies, continue on.

Iris robinson, wife of dup leader and northern ireland first minister peter robinson, and all round hater of anything unchristian such as homosexuality and adultery too I would imagine, was found to be having an affair with a 19 year old guy whom she also tried to lure rich friends into investing in his company, then tried to commit suicide.

No I don't live under a rock but I would think that it is a fairly private thing that shouldn't really be in the papers.
Maybe I'm wrong in thinking like that but they were/ are under enough strain without being judged in a good or bad light?

You should read the papers as you clearly dont understand the story.

You are either illinformed or just a troll.

A self righteous politician (59) was raising money, £50k sterling, from two property developers so her lover (19) could open a restaurant built with council funds. She kept £5k back for herself. He was the only successful applicant in a tendering process. The relationship soured and she wanted the money paid back, but the cheques were to be paid to her and the Church her husband's sister runs. Her husband who happens to be first minister of Northern Ireland was aware of her indiscretions both financial and marital, ensured she paid the money back. Unfortunately for him, it is against the rules for public representatives not to declare such interests. Looks like he'll have to resign. She branded homosexuals as an abomination according to a verse from the Bible, the same piece also condemns infidelity.

easyeason3 thinks this a private matter :eek:

Peter Robinson went to his optician yesterday as his eye was watering since last March. His optician said, " I think I know what's wrong...there has been something stuck in your iris....

cloneslad · 08-01-2010 12:38AM

I'd imagine the homosexual community are loving this right now. seeing her having to try and squirm her way out of this situation. I do feel a little for the family, however she brought all the attention on herself by being self righteous and preaching what is right and what is wrong and now she must suffer the consequences.

There were already serious allegations over how much money they claimed in expenses over the past few years, by holding seats in westminister and stormount and also having members of their family working in their constituency offices and in stormount.

IMAGINE if you were a drag queen in a gay club in Belfast or whatever the amount of material you have at your disposal.

No, you are taking me up completely wrong.
I'm not interested in the story of how this came about. I am interested in the woman in question claiming that she considered suicide due to her actions.
I really hope it's not a publicity stunt looking for people to view her in a vunerable way. It's too much of a serious issue to be throwing around in order to gain a few sympathy votes.
It doesn't take my interest because I feel it's something that should have been kept private.
Simple as that.

if this was a 59 year old man going off with a 19 year old girl(just about an adult) we would all be giving out about the fact that he had taken advantage of her, throwing the publics money at her to knock her off her feet but because itS a woman we just see her as being a bit of a sad old b1t-h.

I feel very sorry for her husband, to be honest i even feel sorry for her. Think about her comments about gay people and her very unwise personal decisions, she is obviously neither a happy nor a right thinking person.

Way to bring up an issue no one is talking about. It is a boring talking point even if it was.

Bottle_of_Smoke · 08-01-2010 12:51AM

I don't get why people make such a big deal about the homosexuality is abomination comment. Only bible bashers say abomination, according to the bible it is an abomination, so what's the issue?

What I don't get even more is that Robinson also said "there is no more vile an act, other than homosexuality and sodomy, than child abuse"

The second comment is far far far worse and its not in a biblical context, yet the papers always talk about the abomination line, which is true.
