Must be very bad, even the orange order suspended him.

When did that shower get morals?

Seen it mentioned on here but is it official that the alleged victim was underage??

All those photos around the house of people shaking hands with Jeff will be getting binned!

The UDR will take his name off their wall too

All the ones up on people's Dart boards will stay UP though. These things balance themselves out over......

That will be coming down the line if he is found guilty, I would say.

If those who didn't want to back into power sharing are now in charge then this could have serious implications.

I heard rumours that that victims were close relatives.

He's away to London, separately it seems. Has been taking canoe lessons lately

A big opportunity now for the opponents of the Windsor Framework.  Gavin Robinson doesn't have the kudos to take the party forward, they are too divided.  Nigel Dodds is a big string puller in the background and then you have the mavericks like Sammy and the hardliners like Carla. They'll chose a new leader but I'm not really sure how they hold it together because they're not sure whether they are for or against the current arrangement - border in the Irish Sea and second fiddle to Michelle, but trying to 'make NI work'.  And ironically that means instability for the Assembly etc.

Will they just wait till the next election or will him stepping down generate a by-election ?
