Wednesday 29 October: Fastway Collapse, Climate Concerns & Spoilt Ballots

Season 18 Episode 22 Published 1 year ago
Description

On The Tonight Show with Kieran Cuddihy:


The collapse of Fastway Couriers delivers a “body blow” to an already struggling industry, with hundreds of jobs lost. Is the business a casualty of green taxes and government policy?


On the eve of COP30, are public attitudes toward climate change shifting as policies retreat? And in the wake of the presidential election, do the high numbers of spoilt ballots signal a growing anti-democratic force in Irish politics?


🏛️ John Clendennen TD, Fine Gael

👨‍🏫 Kevin Cunningham, Lecturer in Politics at TU Dublin and Founder at Ireland Thinks

🏛️ Cllr Linda de Courcy, Independent Ireland

📰 John Gibbons, Journalist & Author

🚚 Ger Hyland, Irish Road Haulage Association President
