Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Bureaucratic Hell
Q: Are there any mechanism we can enforce a referendum to amend the Irish Constitution to guarantee free speech in Ireland?
Unfortunately, the answer is no; referendums can only take place at the behest of the government.
Bureaucratic Hell
Q: Should porn be banned?
Yes, porn should be banned. I would 100% be in favor of that to hell with all of the objections to it. I think if you disagree with that opinion, you're wrong.
Should Ireland remove the Triple Lock?
Q: Can you explain more about the consequences of Ireland removing its triple lock?
Removing the triple lock could undermine Irish neutrality, but there are arguments for allowing Ireland greater autonomy in military decisions.
The Stoneybatter Stabbing
Q: What do you think will happen to the country once multinationals are forced back to the US through tariffs, et cetera, and do you think it will be positive or negative for Ireland in the long term?
It would likely lead to financial ruin with a significant economic impact and a possible radical shift to left-leaning policies as people react to cuts in state support.
The Stoneybatter Stabbing
Q: Should Irish Americans who love Ireland and are disgusted to see what has happened here, be allowed to vote in all of our elections?
No, they should not be allowed to vote, as citizenship confers unique rights and privileges that should not be given out to non-citizens.
