Listen now
Description
The Irish political scene looks as fluid as that in France, the UK and elsewhere. The polls are getting it wrong and plenty of voters don't make up their minds until they enter the polling booth. We take a deep dive into all of this with renowned Irish political analyst and commentator, Tull McAdoo. Why is Sinn Fein's vote collapsing? Will they recover? Maybe their last General Election result was a proper Black Swan event and the recent local and European elections are a better reflection of their base level support. Maybe they simply are not the well-oiled machine of urban - and mainstream media - legend Has Simon Harris helped you put out the washing? 'Politics is a retail business'. Coalitions always end badly, the current one will be no different. Smaller parties, in particular, always emerge very damaged. Advice to all wannabe politicians: knock on doors! And much more! Enjoy.
