Peter Robinson says land deal is 'much ado about nothing'
NORTHERN Ireland First Minister Peter Robinson has quoted Shakespeare to dismiss questions over his involvement in a land deal as "much ado about nothing".
But Ulster Unionist leader Sir Reg Empey said Mr Robinson should stand aside while there is a probe into how he bought land from a developer for 5.
Mr Robinson and wife Iris made almost 460,000 from the sale of part of their garden after, it is claimed, the land exchange opened access to a development.
