McDonald hits a nerve as Harris takes the reins
Published 1 year, 10 months ago
Description
Jennifer Bray and Pat Leahy join Hugh to talk about Simon Harris's appointment as Taoiseach and the details of his minimal Cabinet reshuffle. Did he go far enough to satisfy Fine Gaelers, or voters looking for change?
They also talk about the new Taoiseach's speech delivery and Mary Lou McDonald's forceful criticism of his track record.
But first they discuss the news that the reconstituted Government's first act will be to recognise the statehood of Palestine.
