It might be unfair, but I was expecting a much more progressive show from Ciara and that hasn't happened, for whatever reasons. It's just not for me.

Ciara is often wonderful in highlighting certain issues, particularly around health related issues and housing. But the recent slide to the economic right and punch down rhetoric is not great. I don't think that's representative of Ciara's beliefs, more Newstalks editorial leanings.
