Here's to you Mrs Robinson*

Well. WEll well well. Now we know why iris 'suddenly' resigned before xmas. And why, out of the blue, Peter Robinson (first minister) announced that she'd had an affair and tried to commit suicide and why he wasn't leaving his job.. why would HE leave his job over that?

Because because because because becaaaaaause, she wasn't just fucking around (with a twenty yr old) she was fucking around with money BIG TIME and journalists were investigating that and found out about the affair... talking loans from developers that were suppposed to be for a church, giving them to the Young Man, then demanding the money back from him when the affair fell apart and All Sorts of Financial Goings On that MPs, assembly ministers and the like should not be at. And our First Minister knew but tried to stay out of it as much as possible...

My my my

* yeah, obvious title i know, but pretty damn apt considering...
Summary here no doubt there will be MUCH more tomorrow.

It's been a good evening really.

Were I Catholic, I'd request a plenary indulgence in advance, and then go on a crusade to smite the evil bitch.

I'm not, so I'll just think nasty thoughts about her.

you'll probably be able to catch the programme on iplayer soon, it makes for interesting watching, she's fucked in more ways than one now.

Of course also probably means the whole assembly here is going to come crashing down AGAIN, but, there you go.

I can just see the spin doctors' meeting about it.
"How about this? She embraced the idea of power sharing, and decided to share money and her bed as well!"

That sounds like a tagline for a bad daytime movie...

Instead of being a description of bad choices in real life? (For a given value of "real" - this is politics, after all!)

ROFL, that is a win! Must follow...

Oh, he's brilliant. I think my favourite was when he described Kerry Katona as a "portly slattern".

TheRealBoswell is very good too, but er... a little focused on having a good time. Um.

In other news, I foolishly clicked on your Eye Of Argon link.

*twitch*

Haha, at least that's the mst version, not just the straight text... tho having read-aloud contests with it is great fun (you read til you can't keep a straight face, whoever reads for longest, wins). Good times!

I am now comparing every bad fic to the Eye of Argon. I'm not sure this doesn't deserve second place... (http://www.toplessrobot.com/2010/01/fan_fiction_friday_wolverine_cyclops_and_jean_grey.php)

WHOSE RESPONSIBLE THIS?!?!?!?

You are a bad man. A very bad man.

Help me, I can't stop reading! The Yoda one is a classic!

I have to say, her taste in men (if not husbands) isn't bad. her lover's taste in women, though... *Twitch*

Peter Robinson went to Specsavers as his eye had been watering for a while. The optician says to him, "I know what's wrong - there's been something stuck in your iris..."
