The Links Between Developers And Politicians in The North

[thegael]

Well are we really surprised at the Robinsons?

Could we expand on the links between these two groups of people in the North , the developer and the politician?

We didn't need a new thread for this.

There was no known reason for the donation, but it's meant to be innocent enough.

Somebody posted a link back around the 27/28th page of the Robinsons page which gave some alleged info which may prove contrary to it all being innocent. Have a look and ya mite see why a new thread mite be needed.

How could it be innocent though? These boys don't part with £50,000 for the good of their health. The only logical explanation is that it was payment for favours received or a sweetner in anticipation of future favours.

The big story here is the relationship between the robinsons and Fraser. Jim Allister was calling for a full inquiry into this, which surprises me a little because once the shit hits the fan etc etc.

sure werent the paisleys caught out with a similar scandal this time last year (  I think)  - though it was quickly buried and others were blamed..

anyhow it was part and parcel of the norm in the south with dozens of the feckers (southern politicians) at it for the past 20 or more years.
I think the northern politicians were small time by comparison...

There's nothing small time about the Castlereagh 'project'.

And I don't know.

All I'm saying is that the assertion that £50,000 was handed over by developers just because Irish asked them to with no strings attached is entirely incredible and not worthy of belief.
