Clare Daly throws a cat among the pigeons in Dublin Central

Jennifer Bray and Harry McGee join Hugh to discuss the week in politics: The Government is completing what it can of its unfinished legislative programme before the general election, and that means the 'guillotine' - a procedure that shortens the time needed to debate bills as they pass through the Oireachtas - is getting heavy use this week. Which bills are getting chopped - and which are getting dropped? Clare Daly's decision to run in Dublin Central adds another colourful and effective political character to the mix in that constituency. But with so many independents in contention around the country, the 34th Dáil is likely to be diverse. Jennifer calls out Hugh's obsession with Seanad reform. Is there some Seanad-related trauma deep in Hugh's past? Plus they pick their Irish Times articles of the week: On-the-ground coverage from the US by Keith Duggan and Steven Carroll who are meeting voters and surveying swing states as the historically close US election draws near Patrick Freyne's review of a steamy Jilly Cooper TV adaptation Justine McCarthy warns the coalition parties not to gloat over Sinn Féin's failures - their own records are far from perfect Hosted on Acast.

Surprisingly Funny

The most recent episode was the funniest podcast I’ve listened to in quite a while (nod to Pat’s impressions. More please. Spinout pod perhaps?) As a recent emigrant, Inside Politics keeps me feeling engaged and connected with Ireland.
Conspiracy?

Conspiracy? Really Hugh? That word has a criminal meaning. Are you suggesting a crime? I’m an American, a Democrat, and a Biden fan but for the last 2 years I’ve told everyone I talked to about politics that Biden was being a selfish jerk for running again. Why…because he is 81! Did you guys in the media not know he was 81? Is his behavior not consistent with some people at that age? Sounds like you guys are just trying to cover your butt now because the public is saying why didn’t the press tell us. Trump called you guys the enemy of the people, which of course it’s dangerous. But I was glad when Biden won so I could go back to hating the press. Your behavior in the case is pathetic. You Hugh are pathetic.

Sad that you didn't do your research -- Biden's gaffs go all the way back in his career and his pauses - due to his stutter - are part of who he is. There's more but I don't care to do your work for you. Your writing is always so glorious that I didn't expect to hear you sound as though Biden personally wounded you. Looking forward to more reliable analysis in the future.
Greatly enjoyed your Friday wrap program
