    1389. No, No Happy Christmas to RTE. Up the Workers!

    Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack (Editors Note: Recorded Dec 12th) Martin vs RTE at the WRC Martin went to the WRC to represent RTE worker Joey Kelly vs Arthur Cox who are representing RTE. It was standing room only and despite the attempts to have the case dismissed, what was revealed shows that RTE is not taking steps to resolve its mistreatment of workers. If anything the company is speaking out of both sides of its State-Funded mouth.

    1385. Left Unity in 2025?

    Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack I won't lie, I wanted to see PBP Cllr Conor Reddy get into the Dáil. But that's the democratic process and his (and my) disappointment is, as Conor outlines, a waste of time when the work on the ground continues. We look at the opportunity of real Left Unity in the next Dáil and in street-led activism and we also discuss his important scientific work with Inclusion Services and his PhD which first brought him to my attention. You don't need a Dáil seat to make a difference.

    1388. Inside Syria – Hope and Despair

    Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack In this must hear podcast journalist and tortoise shack regular Gareth Browne joined us from Syria to describe what he has witnessed since being one of the first western journalists to enter Damascus as the Assad regime was collapsing. This podcast includes descriptions that some listeners may find disturbing. But, and it is a big but, I think it’s ultimately a hopeful conversation. We all wish for better for the Syrian people into 2025.

    1377. A Game Changing Freedom of Information Win

    Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack Note: this was recorded a few days ago, but we didn't want it to get lost in the GE2024 news cycle. In this podcast we are joined by freelance freedom of information journalist and one of the driving forces behind righttoknow.ie, Ken Foxe (yes, bike shed Ken) and managing partner at FP Logue Solicitors and tortoise shack regular Dr Fred Logue, to discuss a very important ruling on a case they fought that has significant implications for FOI. This might seem a bit nerdy, but this is the stuff that helps us see what is happening away from the Dáil plinth and inside the offices charged with delivering for the citizenry.
