About this listen
Jack Horgan-Jones and Harry McGee join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:
· The drive to inject some impetus into the Irish presidential race has not yielded anything of note just yet with the starter pistol not expected to sound until Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael, and Sinn Féin nominate their candidates.
· The Coalition remains divided over Minister for Further and Higher Education James Lawless’s recent assertion that the student contribution could increase by as much as €1,000 next year for third-level students.
· The pause on Donald Trump’s reciprocal tariffs is almost up – is there a plan in place to keep Ireland’s pain to a minimum?
Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:
· The puffins of Rathlin Island, the digital revolution that didn’t turn out as expected, and how the wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez destroyed quiet luxury.
