Wednesday 6 May: Unity Poll & Israel Fixture Pressure

Season 19 Episode 35 Published 5 months, 4 weeks ago
Description

An all-island poll shows growing support for Irish unity, while concerns over migration and the EU are also shaping voter attitudes. We ask whether public opinion is increasingly diverging from political discourse.


Meanwhile, Ireland’s electricity prices remain almost 40% above the EU average, as the panel examines the drivers behind the cost-of-living pressures facing households.


And in sport, an open letter from figures across football calls for Ireland to boycott upcoming Israel fixtures. Will the FAI come under pressure to change its stance?

Keira Keogh TD, Fine Gael 

Matt Carthy TD, Sinn Féin Spokesperson on Justice

Mick Clifford, Special Correspondent, Irish Examiner 

Ben Collins, Author, The Unity Dividend 

Daragh Cassidy, Bonkers.ie
