Building strongly on the work of his predecessor Helen McEntee, could Fianna Fáil be looking at a potential future party leader?Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· Has the EPP become a cold house for Fine Gael?

Some are making understandable comparisons with the recent speaking rights row.· And Minister for Justice Jim O'Callaghan has signalled a new Bill to overhaul the asylum system here with the latest data showing a surge in deportation orders and a substantial fall in applications in early 2025, both attributable to O'Callaghan's predecessor Helen McEntee.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall. * Inniu an ceathrú lá de mhí Eanáir. Is mise Eoin Ó Seachnasaigh. Tá an FBI ag fiosrú mar eachtra sceimhlitheoireachta ionsaí a tharla i gcathair New Orleans, nuair a thiomáin fear trucail isteach trí shlua a bhí ag ceiliúradh na hAthbhliana ar shráideanna na cathrach, agus ansin thosaigh sé ag scaoileadh urchar leo. Maraíodh ar a laghad cúig dhuine dhéag, agus gortaíodh breis is tríocha a cúig duine eile. Ag a ceathrú tar éis a trí ar maidin a tharla an eachtra ar Shráid Bourbon, ceantar mór turasóireachta i gCeathrú Francach na cathrach. Scaoil an tiománaí, a bhí ina shaighdiúir roimhe, le póilíní ansin, agus gortaíodh beirt acu. Scaoil na póilíní leis an tiománaí freisin, agus maraíodh ar an láthair é. Fuarthas bratach ISIS sa trucail. Tá sé ráite ag an FBI go gcreideann siad go raibh an tiománaí ag gníomhú ina aonar. Ar ais in Éirinn, tá feidhm anois le reachtaíocht nua chun déileáil le coireanna áirithe ar fuath is bun leo. Mar shampla, fuath a léiriú do dhaoine ar bhonn cine, datha, claonadh gnéis, inscne nó míchumais. Go dtí seo, bhí Éirinn ar cheann den bheagán ballstát den Aontas Eorpach gan reachtaíocht i gcoinne fuatha. Dúirt an tAire Dlí agus Cirt, Helen McEntee, go raibh an reachtaíocht nua de dhíth orainn ó bhí méadú de 7.5% ar an líon coireanna fuatha a thaifead na Gardaí i mbliana. Thug sí le fios freisin go raibh an reachtaíocht bunaithe ar thaithí phearsanta daoine, toisc go ndeachaigh a roinn i gcomhairle leis an bpobal sular chruthaigh siad í. Bhí rabhadh buí faoi theocht íseal agus baol seaca i bhfeidhm ar fud na hÉireann Déardaoin agus Dé hAoine na seachtaine seo. Anois tá sé fógartha ag Met Éireann go leanfar leis an drochaimsir ag an deireadh seachtaine. Tá siad ag tuar go mbeidh an teocht idir aon chéim agus sé chéim Dé Sathairn, agus gur chóir dúinn a bheith ag súil le tuilleadh ráigeanna den bháisteach throm. Chomh maith leis sin, beidh sé níos ísle fiú san oíche, thart ar lúide cúig chéim. Agus ní bheidh an pictiúr ag athrú mórán go luath amach anseo. Is féidir linn a bheith ag súil le haimsir den chineál céanna an tseachtain seo chugainn. Mar sin de, má bhíonn sibh ar na bóithre, bígí cúramach agus tugaigí aire. eachtra sceimhlitheoireachta - act of terrorism an Ceathrú Francach - the French Quarter reachtaíocht - legislation coireanna áirithe ar fuath is bun leo - certain hate crimes rabhadh buí - yellow warning lúide - minus

jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/2376qekw Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com Harris Harris 'le leanacht' ag stocaireacht ar son John McGahon sa Lú. Fine Gael leader Simon Harris has said that he will continue to lobby for his party's candidate in the Louth Constituency, Senator John McGahon, despite the concerns expressed by both Fianna Fáil and Sinn Féin. Tá sé ráite ag ceannaire Fhine Gael Simon Harris, go leanfaidh sé ar aghaidh ag stocaireacht ar son iarrthóir a pháirtí i nDáilcheantar Lú, an Seanadóir John McGahon, ainneoin na himní atá léirithe ag Fianna Fáil agus Sinn Féin araon. John McGahon was found not guilty in a 2022 trial of physically assaulting Breen White outside a pub in County Louth and the Sunday Times newspaper published photographs of Breen White's injuries today. Fuarthas John McGahon neamhchiontach i dtriail i 2022 as ionsaí fisiciúil ar Breen White taobh amuigh de thábhairne i gContae Lú agus d'fhoilsigh an nuachtán an Sunday Times grianghraif de ghortuithe Breen White inniu. Simon Harris said the images and videos from security systems were part of the evidence in the criminal trial but the jury found Senator McGahon not guilty. Dúirt Simon Harris gur chuid den fhianaise sa triail choiriúil iad na h-íomhánna agus na físeáin ó chórais slándála ach go bhfuair giúiré an Seanadóir McGahon neamhchiontach. Earlier today Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin said: "It seems that the victim in this case did not get the response that he should have received. Níos luaithe inniu dúirt ceannaire Fhianna Fáil Micheál Martin: "Is cosúil nach bhfuair an t-íospartach sa chás seo an freagra a cheapfaí a ba cheart dó a fháil. And I think that the matter is serious and that it is a matter for Fine Gael of course." Agus ceapaim go bhfuil an tábhar tromchúiseach agus gur ceist do Fhine Gael é ar ndóigh." Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald described what happened outside the pub as "violent" and "brutal" and questioned how Simon Harris could support John McGahon as a candidate. "Foréigneach" agus "brúidiúíl" an cur síos a rinne ceannaire Shinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald ar an méid a tharla taobh amuigh den teach tábhairne agus cheistigh sí conas a d'fhéadfadh Simon Harris tacú le John McGahon mar iarrthóir. However, the deputy leader of Fine Gael, Helen McEntee said that she also supports the Senator - that the courts have dealt with the matter and it is noteworthy that he claimed that he was defending himself. Dúirt leascheannaire Fhine Gael, Helen McEntee áfach go dtacaíonn sise chomh maith leis an Seanadóir - gur phléigh na cúirteanna leis an ábhar agus gur díol suntais gur mhaígh sé gur á chosaint féin a bhí sé. Although John McGahon was found not guilty in a criminal trial, he was found 65% responsible for damages in a subsequent civil case. Cé go bhfuarthas John McGahon neamhchiontach i dtriail choiriúil, fuarthas 65 faoin gcéad freagrach as damáistí é i gcás sibhialta ina dhiaidh sin. The High Court ordered him to pay €39,000 to Breen White. D'ordaigh an Ardchúirt dó €39,000 a íoc le Breen White. Breen White told the Sunday Times today that he is disappointed that John McGahon was chosen as Fine Gael's candidate. Dúirt Breen White leis an Sunday Times inniu go bhfuil díomá air gur roghnaíodh John McGahon mar le bheith ina iarrthóir ag Fine Gael.
