    Robinson has finally lost it!

    DUP reshuffle today to get rid of double jobbers.

    I am not making this up but Cllr Sammy Wilson MLA MP is the new Finance Minister. (I suppose hes really a triple jobber)

    Arlene Foster remains as Minister for Enterprise and Investment.

    Edwin Poots returns to cabinet as Environment Minister

    Nelson McCausland- Minister for Culture and Arts.

    Robin Newton- Junior Minister for DFM

    Out- Nigel Dodds, Jeffery Donaldson

    Nice to see Wilson being rewarded for his couragous work in Envinonment. Interesting to see IPJ not getting anything in the re-shuffle.
    The Mahon Tribunal found Olivia Mitchell to have received an inappropriate payment from Frank Dunlop at the time of the 1992 Election. F.G. Gael has taken no action against her.

    Financial problems are no longer problems if Sammy thinks they are not. Economic crisis solved.

    As for Mc Causland as culture vulture......Jebus and every other prophet wept

    McCausland as Culture minister i really dont get.

    But auld Sammy as Finance is crazy, i do understand that foster was orginally to be moved to the Finance minister but she wanted to stay were she was.
