Peter Robinson is the First Minister of Northern Ireland, Leader of the Democratic Unionist Party, and until the General Election of 6 May 2010, the MP for East Belfast.[1]
Robinson addressed the Monday Club in January 2003.[2]
Spotlight allegations
In January 2010, a BBC Spotlight documentary criticised Robinson's response to undeclared payments made by two property developers to his wife, the Strangford MP Iris Robinson:
- When Peter Robinson found out about his wife's financial dealings, he insisted that the money should be returned.
- However, he did not tell the proper authorities despite being obliged by the ministerial code to act in the public interest at all times.
- On Thursday, Mr Robinson's solicitors said he was thoroughly satisfied that he has at all times acted properly and fulfilled all requirements, and would robustly challenge any allegation to the contrary.[3]
