In 1999, Robinson stood as the Scottish Election as a Conservative candidate, finishing 4th with 8.5% of the vote. Robertson then in 2003 stood for the Shetland Islands Council in the Lerwick South Central as an independent against Gussie Angus, a Liberal Democrat, but did not win the seat.

In 2012, Robinson was successfully re-elected to Shetland West with Frank Robertson and Theo Smith.
