Episode Details

Clocks will go forward this weekend, bringing with it a grand old stretch in the evening. However, while some of us may enjoy the grand old stretch in the evening and 8pm sunsets, others struggle with the fatigue, irritability, and brain fog in the days following the transition. Some people – especially night owls – can find the adjustment period lasts for weeks. Ireland South Fine Gael MEP Sean Kelly is one of those who wants to see the biannual clock changes ended. Sean, who has previously spoken about this issue on Morning Focus, has described the seasonal shift as an 'outdated practice' which has no justification in the modern world. We sent Caitlin Griffin from the Morning Focus team out to find out what the Clare public thinks. Photo (c) Alexas Potos From Pexels via Canva
