  • Don't see what the fuss is if I were an MLA I would do it.
  • Sinn Fein might not employ their family members directly but this is because they employ each others and then look at the sort of people their ministers employ as Special Advisors!

    They're all as bad as each other.

    When we're on about money and greed, just heard this about big Ian Paisley. Some old lady, who went to his church, left him 5 million in her will and he contacted a promenant business man (i know) about how to invest it. I would guess the dear old soul thought he would put it into the free P church, but since he was pushed out of it, he probably sees its no longer his church.
