Text
Further to that point of order, Mr Speaker. I say this as the Member who was granted permission to ask the question for urgent oral answer on behalf of the people of Northern Ireland: the First Minister has once again shown her utter contempt for the people of Northern Ireland. Her arrogance knows no bounds. She has clearly been carried away and is drunk on her belief that she is the First Minister for all and that she is not answerable to the House. It is clear that, after breaking the law on Sunday, she is on the run. Mr Speaker, what options are open to the House to demand the presence of the First Minister to explain why she is refusing to discharge her duties? Instead, she is sitting in her office, which is behind the door of the Chamber, hiding from the House.
