If he falls, the post of first minister and deputy first minister, held by Martin McGuinness of the republican Sinn Fein party, would have to be filled.McGuinness can end his partnership with Robinson or refuse to be renominated if the East Belfast lawmaker is toppled.The scandal has been exposed amid a tense backdrop in Northern Ireland. Republicans want more policing powers devolved from London to Belfast as their price for staying in government but the two main parties have failed to agree a deal on this.In a statement issued Sunday, Sinn Fein President Gerry Adams said the Irish republican party was determined to see "beyond the current difficulties" and accused the DUP of failing to fulfil its political commitments."This is not about the Robinson's private family matters," Adams said. "Sinn Fein respect their right to privacy. It is about implementing outstanding political agreements that are essential to good government and public confidence."Writing
