Beam me up, Jeffrey

Mark Devenport | 17:57 UK time, Monday, 22 March 2010

When Jeffrey Donaldson began his speech this evening he apologised for Peter Robinson's absence due to his committments at Stormont. But shortly after (at 17:44 if my watch was right) he announced that Peter Robinson had arrived and sure enough the First Minister made an intervention a couple of minutes later.

This was pretty smart work given that Mr Robinson had been standing in the Assembly chamber answering his last question at 15:00. Has the DUP invested in a Star Trek style tele-porter to deflect criticism of double jobbing?
