MONEY FOR NOTHING....
Thursday, September 18, 2008 at 07:32AM Interesting to see that Northern Ireland First Minister Peter Robinson's deadline for breaking the three-month deadlock at Stormont looks set to pass without ministers meeting.
The executive has not met over the summer, as Sinn Féin insists on more progress over devolving justice powers. The DUP leader last month warned of "serious consequences" if the executive failed to meet on this day. All that seems likely to happen is a series of informal discussions on how to combat the rising cost of living.
"Informal discussions" - big deal. Here we see the grotesque waste of taxpayers money that the Assembly has come to represent. If they won't meet - they should stop taking the generous salary provided. These people are a bad joke.

Further proof that Belfast/St.Andrews agreement style twisted devolution is not working.This whole sorry show should be consigned to the scrap heap once and for all.But then that would be Robinson,McGuinness and company out of work and with no power to cling to. Now that would never do !!

"Interesting" is not the word I'd use.
