About this listen

 The name ‘Fergus McCabe’ might not mean much to a lot of people, especially if you’re not a Dubliner but if you’re from the northside of the Liffey it’s a name that might matter a great deal. In fact northside residents like Mary Lou McDonald, Paschal Donohoe, Gary Gannon and even a man who lives in the Phoenix Park called Michael D. Higgins all paid tribute to him when his death was announced this week. His was a name which wasn’t widely known outside of his own community - Dublin’s North Inner-City - but he was a serious player in Irish politics in the closing decades of the twentieth century who was at the heart of the ‘Gregory Deal’ - a landmark moment in Irish political history. Donal Fallon joins Gavan Reilly for another episode of Hidden Histories to discuss.
