Not being overly familiar with the said Mrs Robinson up to yesterday I did a quick images search and, much and all as I appreciate older women sometimes, no, just no. On the topic itself was discussing it earlier with someone who generally would never have been pro Peter Robinson and he was giving him the sympathy vote which surprised me to say the least. As has been said I'm not sure how he can carry on as FM with it being shown that he's known of these irregularities for a good period of time.

For God and Ulster's sake, Mrs. Robinson. Here we are. You got me into your house. You give me a drink of the Devils Buttermilk. You... put on music by the East Belfast Protestant Boys Flute Band. Now you start opening up your personal life to me and tell me your husband won't be home for hours. Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me! ;)

This is insane, such god fearing people, who look down their snouts at odd types like same sexers and fiendish papists, and all along they realise they're human after all. But like good old George Bush, just go and pray and god will forgive you, to do whatever you want again. Isn't that what big Ian did!

I like it. You're a bad man, Fly ;)

More like the Sound of Silence from Iris now...

I feel a bit sorry for Peter, almost forgive him for invading the village near my parents house many moons ago and I can see how he found it difficult to shop his wife of 40 years in favour of his minsterial code which he has only sworn in to a few short years agon.

I also admire her for her toyboy, but I doubt even I could deal with a 40 year age gap. That would mean that my future lover is years away from being born. Yuck.

Its good that they are seeing that even god fearing religious types can make mistakes and maybe she will be less judgemental in the future.

Or we're seeing that right wing zealots have no morals at all, and they're as corrupt and depraved as the people they spout bile about.

It helps show that underneath it all we are all the same and capable of doing things that we might see as wrong but at the time feel right!

It helps show that both Robinsons are muppets.

Seen this last night, was very interesting.
Heard this morning that Robinson might sue BBC as he infact was mentioned but there was no concrete evidence showing his involvement. Of course as husband he might have known but still he could win this in a court of law:)
Also what do you guys think of all the texts. IMHO I think its a little immoral for anyone to disclose what was private texts to the media. Wonder what was the real reason your fella went to the BBC - dont buy that rubbish he spouted, wonder did BBC sweeten it for him?
I think she isnt bad for her age, does that make me mad?:confused:

They said he'd received nothing for it.

As a former chaplain, presumably quite a religious man, perhaps he couldn't accept Robinson's attempts to portray what she was doing as in line with God's wishes?

I actually thought he (the advisor) and Kirk McCambley both came across quite well myself.

I don't want to have a go at you magicme but i don't feel one bit sorry for the Robinsons at all. When Mrs. Robinson comes out with rhetoric about homosexuals being inhuman and they should be shot, whilst knowingly breaking one of the 10 commandments or even one of the 7 deadly sins, while earlier this week Mr Robinson being probably the only prominent person not to offer condolences for the death of cardinal daly these folks are trapped in a cocoon in their own little world and think they are above reproach. They portray this wholesome family life that they had in Gods little utopia and really any skeletons that they had in their closets where always going to come out.

I don't know if he has a case. I was always led to believe that spouses under the eyes of the law are the one person. could be wrong though

Have no sympathy for her Jinxy, just feel sorry for him coz he is got to be hurt over it all. He is human.

And having checked Kirk out I now admire Iris and wanna be her when I grow up. Yum.

He was a publicly funded employee and he was being used as her personal bulter. Anything you text/email to your public-employed assistant is not private. They're publicly owned and it's fair enough for their contents to be made public.

Two commandments actually. She tried to kill herself.

Covered by 'Thou shalt not kill', iirc.

I'd say it's fairly well covered by Thou Shalt Not Kill. Though I once had it explained to me by a minister of the Free Presbyterian Church that what looks like like a fairly unequivocal commandment is actually about as water tight as a collander.
He went on to explain that according to the bible (or his preferred chinese whisper translation of it at any rate) that particular commandment refers only to the taking of life amongst the private and unauthorised citizenry. State sanctioned killings/executions are not only exempt but are INSISTED upon as a form of punishment elsewhere in the 'Good Book'.
