Divorce in Ireland - 30 years on
Published 4 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
30 years ago today, legislation was passed legalizing divorce in Ireland, with just 9,000 votes in the difference. How have attitudes and legislation changed over the past 30 years as it became more normalised in Irish society?
Joining Ciara Doherty to discuss is Michelle Brown, Divorce Consultant, Mediator and author of ‘Scars of Divorce’ and Ivana Bacik, Labour TD for Dublin Bay South, who was involved in the campaign at the time.
