Fuelling the (Ire)land
About this episode
The episode discusses government responses to protests, carbon tax debates, education budget issues, and the political implications of a united Ireland.
Driving the protesters off the blocked roads: Brenda Power and John Deasy join Matt to discuss how the government has to confront threatened anarchy. Carbon tax increases debated, and is the future Nuclear? Why objections to IPAS Centres won't be bypassed. Why the Department of Education can't get its budget sums right, the problem with voluntary contributions, and paying teachers appropriately. Also, Mary Lou McDonald's belief that a united Ireland is the pressing political issue, will she campaign on that basis in the by-elections? Brought to you by The Greenman Group.
