DUP leader orders ‘unprecedented’ review of Jeffrey Donaldson’s time in party

Jeffrey Donaldson was convicted at Newry Crown Court of 18 sex offences, including one count of rape, relating to the abuse of two women when they were children.

DUP leader Gavin Robinson has insisted he has ordered an “unprecedented review” in terms of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Donaldson’s time in his party.

Mr Robinson previously announced a “focused, independent review” to establish what was known within the party about Donaldson’s conduct.
