Tue 22 September: Carbon Tax Clash, Global Conflict, Youth Exodus & the Israel Match
Description
With Budget 2027 just weeks away, we debate Sinn Féin’s renewed push to remove the carbon tax from home heating oil and the wider pressure on Government over the cost of living.
We also go live to New York as world leaders gather at the UN General Assembly, with the wars in Iran and Ukraine and the energy crisis on the agenda.
Plus, why are so many young people considering leaving Ireland?
And as controversy grows over Ireland’s Nations League fixture against Israel, former international footballer Kevin Kilbane joined us to discuss the calls for a boycott and the FAI’s decision to play the game.
On the panel:
John Lahart TD, Fianna Fáil
Pearse Doherty TD, Spokesperson on Finance, Sinn Fein
Gráinne Ní Aodha, News reporter, Irish Examiner
Zara King, News Correspondent, Virgin Media News
Kevin Kilbane, former Irish International footballer
