As an ex DUP voter from the Shankill rd after watching this interview by Seamus Magee (BBC R/U )with Mr Arrogance Robinson the man has to stand down,Lets look back a while ago when Paisley jnr was in the headlines with that very honourable chap Sweeney form the north coast regarding property/rent so on, Og was hung drawn and quartered by his truely and the rest in the BIG DUP BUBBLE.
