  5. I wish people would stop describing Jeffrey Donaldson as being charged for 'historical sex offences'. I am sure that for the victims of sex crimes they are very much not historical, but rather are ever present no matter how long ago they occurred.

    Never without his born-again Christian badge ... #jeffreydonaldson

  7. Issuing a clarification on my previous comments on #JeffreyDonaldson: my description of him as a “weaselly wee bastard” was a terrible slur on the noble weasel, blameless short people and those born out of wedlock. I apologise unreservedly.

  8. Slugger O'Toole: 'One of the great lessons in life is that the more someone publicly professes to be a ‘Christian,’ the more unchristian their private life is.'

  9. You know I've no idea whether #JeffreyDonaldson is guilty or innocent of what he is accused of. But I wonder why he didn't take "gardening leave" whilst the matter took it's course in the courts and for a decision to be made on his leadership when that was resolved

  10. The DUP said: "The party chairman has received a letter from Sir Jeffrey Donaldson MP confirming that he has been charged with *allegations of an historical nature* and indicating that he is stepping down as leader of the Democratic Unionist Party with immediate effect".

    Raise your hand if you're even vaguely surprised.

  11. From 2020:

    “The #DUP's Westminster leader will chair a parliament briefing with a church minister who claimed education on LGBT issues in schools was "state-sponsored abuse" and compared the push to introduce topics into the classroom to Nazism.

    Sir #JeffreyDonaldson is chair of the Lords and Commons Family and Child Protection Group…”

  12. CW: Details of child sex abuse

    It appears that the charges against Jeffrey Donaldson have been published. He, apparently, has been charged with 10 offences including child rape and gross indecency against two children, his wife charged with 3 offences including aiding and abetting her husbands offences. Both deny the charges. Horrific.

  13. Can I remind everybody that Jeffrey Donaldson is/was the chair of “the Lords and Commons Family and Child Protection Group”. You couldn't make it up.

  14. Slugger: "Jeffrey Donaldson deletes all his social media accounts…This looks ominous…. For now, comments will remain closed, but this is likely to be the beginning of something big. Very big."

    Oh! 🙄

    Anyone have any idea what's going on here?

  15. @Brandi_Buchman read that as #JeffreyDonaldson and thought, That's An Interesting Way To Describe Him, But I'm Here For It.

  16. Interesting quote from the #DUP's #JeffreyDonaldson

    “...the people of #NorthernIreland will continue to vote to remain part of the sixth largest economy in the world”.

    Except that post-Brexit UK is slipping down the rankings, Germany alone is the fourth largest economy, and the EU economy taken as a whole is only exceeded by the US.

    So, on economic grounds alone, why would the people of Northern Ireland not vote to join the *second largest* economy in the world? #UnitedIreland

  17. Jeffrey Donaldson of the DUP is NOT invited to Brian's coronation. Michelle O'Neill of Sinn Féin IS invited. Let that sink in. 😂😂😂

    Correction: Donaldson is denying this report.
