    What I don’t understand is why when it was happening in Calais you were all fundraising and donating to help for Calais, now it’s sorted by closing the camps a d letting them go wandering and Ireland has the problem you’re aghast. Total NIMBY. Cannot send them back to UK as UK send them to France-Germany-Italy etc. it’s not a problem that can be sorted. Get on with it. Maybe it’s the cost Ireland have to pay for the EU backing u up re Brexit

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#854 Is Being A Traditional Wife Now Politically Incorrect?
Q: Brenda Power, what is your take on why this strategy is being perceived as anti-family or anti-women's traditional roles?
Brenda Power contends that the strategy overemphasizes career paths and downplays family and motherhood, suggesting the policy could alienate women who value homemaking and parental roles.
#854 Is Being A Traditional Wife Now Politically Incorrect?
Q: What is the essence of the anti-tradwife criticism in the strategy, and why is that seen as a problem by your side?
David Quinn argues that the plan leans toward pushing women into full-time work and away from traditional homemaking, which critics see as a misalignment with diverse personal choices and potential long-term demographic impacts.
#854 Is Being A Traditional Wife Now Politically Incorrect?
Q: David, okay, maybe you could explain this report to our listeners just in simple terms and what it actually means.
David Quinn explains that the plan is a five-year action framework following a national strategy for women and girls, including education campaigns to tackle harmful gender stereotypes and gender budgeting requirements for government departments.
#859 Hate Speech Laws: Brussels Wants to Police What You Say (With Tomas O Reilly)
Q: What is the role of the European Commission and the Digital Services Act in shaping national policy on hate speech?
The Commission is pushing for harmonized rules that could supersede national approaches, while the DS Act expands the responsibilities of platforms and empowers various NGOs to flag and manage content across borders.
#859 Hate Speech Laws: Brussels Wants to Police What You Say (With Tomas O Reilly)
Q: Should we be concerned that our speech is going to be policed by Brussels or by EU-wide rules?
Tomas argues that while regulation aims to curb harmful hate speech, it risks broad definitions and potential overreach, with enforcement largely driven by regulatory bodies and platform policies rather than traditional courts.
