Who will be Ireland's Next President?

About this episode

Naomi and Tim discuss the candidates for Ireland's presidency and the implications of the role in modern times.

Naomi and Tim take a look at the candidates who have put themselves forward for the highest office in the land and consider what the Irish presidency means in the 21st century. We look at the odd nature of presidential office in Ireland, how the role has changed significantly over recent mandates, and why that could potentially lead to a constitutional crisis in the future.
