Description
American singer and performance artist Amanda Palmer was in Dublin the week Ireland voted to remove the 8th Amendment from the Constitution. As someone who has had three abortions and who has spoken publicly about those experiences, Palmer was overjoyed at the result and could be seen around Dublin in her REPEAL sweater in the lead up to the vote. She spoke to Róisín Ingle about the referendum, abortion and women's rights. They also spoke about life in Trump's America and Palmer sang Róisín's favourite song of hers, In My Mind.
