Rog Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I see it as a tragic thing all round. We'll never know the whole story, all we will see is a part of the fall out the news media will no doubt gloat over.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terse Posted January 8, 2010 Author Share Posted January 8, 2010 At the moment they seem more concerned with the financial chicanery rather than any salacious aspect to the story. Mind you, I haven't looked to see what the 'red tops' are saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheeky boy Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Could be an example of the "butterfly effect" where a seemingly trivail incident of a woman having an affair ends up triggering off a series of events ending in sectarian warfare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terse Posted January 10, 2010 Author Share Posted January 10, 2010 That is the real problem about this. It could end up causing a serious split in the loyalist which, in turn, could result in Sinn Fein being the largest single party in N Ireland.

Freggyragh Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Peter Robinson was a violent bigot in the past too.
