Podcasts about padraig yeates

James Connolly and Jim Larkin are very familiar to the Irish from their work as trade unionists, but what other Irish names have assisted the movement overseas? Historian and author Padraig Yeates joins us.

In 1988, Anne Gillespie was 18 years old. She was looking forward to embarking on adult life. There was just one problem - her boyfriend of over three years had begun to behave horribly. She decided to end things. Her boyfriend, 22 year old John Gallagher, decided that if Anne would no longer speak to him, he'd kill her.  John also shot Anne's mother, Annie. No one could have predicted it, nor could they have known about the 24 years the two families would spend in and out of court. ******** With thanks to our sponsors for this episode: Sign up for professional online counselling at betterhelp.com/mens and get 10% off your first month! ******** Find us on Facebook or Twitter!

Seat of Crown administration since the twelfth century, and still bearing the physical scars of the 1916 Rising, during the War of Independence Dublin was also GHQ of the IRA and the location of the underground Dáil administration.   To find out how the conflict played out between the two sides join History Ireland editor, Tommy Graham, in discussion with Donal Fallon, John Gibney, Liz Gillis and Padraig Yeates.

Padraig Yeates joins Myles to talk about the 1919 strike which brought the city of Belfast to a halt, and paved the way for a shorter working week.

Recorded on: Monday, 23 APRIL 2018 at 7pm. Venue: @ Liberty Hall, Dublin 1 On 23 April 1918 the Irish Trades Union Congress, and the ITGWU in particular, called a one-day general strike against the imposition of conscription and brought the country to a standstill. While it was the largest strike to date in Irish history, it was, uniquely, fully endorsed by both the employers and the Catholic Church. Support for the strike in the heavily industrialised but unionist-dominated Belfast was conspicuous by its absence. To discuss these contradictions and other related matters, History Ireland editor Tommy Graham was joined by Padraig Yeates, Sarah Ann Buckley, Thomas Morrissey and Ethel Buckley.

http://history.radio.ie/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/DublinGreatWar1.mp3 For the next three episodes we are re-broadcasting a series from Near FM on Dublin and the Great War. In this episode, Ciarán Murray speaks to Padraig Yeates and John Dorney on the topics of anti-conscription and the Russian revolution. Fergus Russell from An Góilín sings songs from the era.  Presented by Ciarán Murray, produced by Donie Tarrant and edited by David Cullen.

Barry's Hotel was one of the early focal points of the Irish Civil War. The hotel's story, and that of the war itself, is told through the eyes of its owner, Annie Farrington; letters sent by Liam Lynch to his brother; and historian Padraig Yeates, who has a personal family connection to the skirmish that occurred around the hotel. Many thanks to IMPACT Work & Life Magazine for the Pádraig Yeates section.

By the end of January 1914 the Lockout ended with a decisive and crushing victory for the employers. Many leave Dublin to seek work in English cities and the striking girls and women from Jacobs are worst off. Most do not get work again and those that do are not allowed back until April. Actor Ronnie McCann voices James Connollys prophetic words, Dublin is isolated, and we hear from Connollys great grandson James Connolly Heron and from Larkins great grandchildren, Jim and Aoife Breslin. Historians Emmet O Connor, Padraig Yeates, Theresa Moriarty, Ann Mathews and Diarmaid Ferriter vividly describe events while author Ruth Dudley Edwards, a biographer of Connolly assesses the leadership of Connolly, Larkin and Constance Markievicz.

In Episode 5 we explore the impact of defeat on not just the trade union movement but also on our key characters. Is it the defeat of Lockout or the outbreak of World War One which defines 1916? We hear the voices of Connolly and Larkin read by Ronnie McCann and Stephen Murray as well as the views of historians and commentators including Padraig Yeates, Diarmaid Ferriter and Ruth Dudley Edwards.

To tie in with the documentary series Citizens: Lockout 1913 to 2013 three live discussions about the lockout will feature on the Today with Myles Dungan show. In the first feature broadcast on August 9th Myles was joined in studio by Padraig Yeates, author of Lockout: Dublin 1913 and a member of the 1913 Committee, Mary Daly Professor of History and Archives at University College Dublin, Ciaran Wallace historian at Trinity College Dublin and Ann Matthews writer and historian at NUI Maynooth who all feature across the series.
