Donaldson news will dominate at Stormont for some time, unfortunately it seems like the victims have already been forgotten in all of this and now it's going to be used for political point scoring and not delivering for people.
@Beast_Mode_No1@GRobinsonDUP Shouldn't really about what Sinn Fein did. DUP voter base won't forgive in the manner Sinn Fein do. They should act appropriately.
DUP leader Gavin Robinson has said “it is clear” there are former and current members of his party who had information about Jeffrey Donaldson’s conduct that they did not share.

Is it time for the @duponline to shut up shop the hard liners join @TUVonline and others who are more moderate @uuponline and @JonBurrowsMLA
Politics here needs to move forward and that means leaving Sinn Fein & DUP behind.
This is what's wrong with politics..to many in glass houses throwing stones. Some of the people who represent Sinn Fein have also committed awful crimes.
⁉️NEW: Michelle O'Neill questions how Jeffrey Donaldson was chosen to lead the DUP when he lived a life of "moral hypocrisy".
🎤First Minister @moneillsf told Chief Reporter @jamesgould23 that she wants to know how a man like Jeffrey Donaldson was ever chosen to lead the DUP.
"We want the DUP to be forthcoming with all this information," she said.
Former DUP leader Jeffrey Donaldson was convicted last week of 18 counts of child sex abuse, including one count of rape, committed against two women when they were children.
DUP leader Gavin Robinson said a review commissioned following Donaldson's convictions for child sex offences would be "independent" of the party and that it would 'leave no stone unturned.'
There have been growing calls from Stormont parties for the DUP-commissioned review, launched in the wake of Donaldson's conviction, to provide full transparency over safeguarding issues.
Subsequent media reports have raised questions about how much was known within the DUP about Donaldson's wider conduct before his arrest in 2024 over sex abuse allegations.
@irish_news To busy sitting on panels instead of delivering for Northern Ireland ( I know they are opposition but politicians generally). SDLP & Sinn Fein do not want Northern Ireland to work.
@ghost__orwell I agree mostly. I think it's fair and proper it's established who knew what if there was anything reported within the DUP. However, it's not the fault of the party his crimes if they had no knowledge.
This place doesn't work, the government is a shambles here on all sides. All soap opera.
Why is nobody able to just say that what Israel has done is barbaric and what Hamas has done is also barbaric.
There is no sides other than peace.

@naomi_long@kcars1961 When they get put up in hotels etc and cost the tax payer a fortune people are obviously going to feel angry about it when so many other things could use the money.
Do they get access to doctors and dentists etc as priority over the public?
