Comment on Northern Ireland isn’t ready for women leaders

Other allegations have been made and we are still awaiting matters so who knows what will happen. We’ll just have to sit tight and wait to see what happens.

Mallon might have walked away and took a back seat but this doesnt mean that Robinson will. People think he should but with such support from his party and constituency, this could promt him to stay and work his way through what has happened.
