In a political review of the week, Harry McGee, Cormac McQuinn, and Hugh Linehan come together to discuss various topics, ranging from the conclusion of the Dáil term to the timing of the subsequent general election and the Government’s pending legislative priorities.
The second portion of the discussion features parts of Harry’s discussion with Roderic O’Gorman, the newly-instated Green Party leader. Topics such as O’Gorman’s stance on potential electoral pacts with parties including Labour and Social Democrats, the use of focus groups for fine-tuning the party’s message to the electorate, and the occasional harassment he has encountered in politics are all explored.
Additional topics of discussion include the release of Tori Towey, an Irish woman hitherto held in Dubai, and George Clooney’s contributions to the discourse around the suitability of Joe Biden running for a second term.
