A Former Shannon Councillor is fearful the proposed introduction of maternity leave for local representatives is merely a 'box ticking exercise'. Cabinet yesterday approved legislation which would allow local authority members to appoint an individual as a temporary substitute to cover a period of maternity-related absence or illness. Ann Norton, Independent Councillor from Barefield and former Shannon Councillor, Patricia McCarthy have been speaking to Clare FM's Morning Focus.

A former Mayor of Clare doesn't believe Budget 2023 was an 'election budget' as it only gave the impression of providing something for 'everyone in the audience'. The controversial levy on concrete and the failure to provide funding for the transfer of Shannon Heritage sites to the local authority are two sticking points of particular importance in this county. Former Mayor of Clare and Shannon, Patricia McCarthy, says once you scratch the surface of Budget 2023, the cracks begin to show. However, a former Minister of Defence is praising the government's peformance in delivering a budget in such challenging times.

A former Mayor of Clare claims something short of a miracle is what's needed to restore public confidence in Government. Patricia McCarthy, who's also a former Chair of the Shannon Town Council believes this latest controversy will be hard to come back from as public confidence steadily eroding for the past two years.

In American society, there are two kinds of people. Those who rule and those who are ruled. Francis P. Sempa has the key to understanding our ruling elites and why they cannot be trusted with power. There's a lot of things shaping up that are concerning, to put it mildly. Kent McManigal explains how preparation can ease your anxiety. If you've ever wondered what a legit mass psychosis looks like, look no further than the left's barbaric obsession with transgenderism. Patricia McCarthy describes the sheer lunacy that's being pushed on us. If you're serious about protecting and perpetuating freedom for future generations, there's a lot of work to be done. Annie Holmquist says there's no place like home to help freedom grow. Quantifying what has happened to the American Republic requires understanding our nation's history. Judge Andrew Napolitano has a terrific summary of how the tyranny of the majority came to be.

A former Clare TD is calling for a general election following what he says is the Government's failure to deal adequately with the cost of living crisis. James Breen, Former Independent TD for Clare and Patricia McCarthy, former Mayor of Clare were speaking to Clare FM's Morning Focus about the government's handling of the cost of living crisis.

The public consultation process on the newest Shannon Masterplan has ended and the town now awaits the publication of the final masterplan for its redevelopment. Shannon is Ireland's only planned town in the 20th century and the ‘manufactured' feeling has been hard to shake from its identity. Despite this being the third masterplan for the town, little has been done in the past four decades to bring life to Shannon. On Thursday's Morning Focus, Pat Flynn was joined by Patricia McCarthy, Former Mayor of Clare, Former Chair of Shannon Town Council and Derek Clune, Chairman of LoveShannon Community Council.

In this episode, I talk with Dr Patricia McCarthy, a visiting research fellow from Trinity College Dublin and passionate advocate for disability and inclusion rights in education. Click HERE for Accessible Transcript Patricia shares her own experiences of being educated as a blind/physically impaired student from the 1970s and the barriers she overcame to achieve her PhD.  She talks about being perceived as an oddity of being doubly disabled and feeling less able than her peers because she couldn't walk as well as them.  Patricia struggled with masking her disability through adulthood and reflecting on the stigma of the ‘white cane' as if something was wrong with having a disability. It wasn't until her experiences in higher education and the maturity that comes along with being an adult, that she realised the importance of disclosure.  Patricia is passionate about trying to improve awareness around the low incidence of people who are blind/vision impaired in education and specifically the very low percentage of those who go on to postgraduate study.  When there is significant amounts of reading that is required in higher level education, access to readable texts and resources, as well as support, is a major challenge and hindrance for many students.  She says that it is frustrating to be constantly on the backfoot waiting for someone to put resources and reading materials in a format that you can read, and students with disabilities are constantly trying to play catch up.  Patricia explains that often the voice of those with disabilities is often diminished by experts that are supporting them. Considerations and decisions for the students are often made very early on in their education and they have little support or voice in the decisions that are made for them.  The findings from her research centered around themes of identity, access and transition. The education system as it is now, isn't always designed to include the disabled person and to engage them in a positive and authentic manner. It seems that blind and disabled students in higher education are more the exception rather than the rule.   Focus must always be on ability rather than focusing on disability. She says that there needs to be more awareness around how community, society and educators can support all students and not limit them during their formative years based on their disability.  Just because they have a disability, it is only part and parcel of who they are as a person and education should look at the individual and the whole person. Currently, the education system isn't designed in a way to enable disabled people to engage meaningfully.   We won't always get it right, but we are so much better for actively and authentically trying! Ensuring that everyone is included means thinking beyond only people with disabilities. We are all unique and have different needs for living and learning. We need to move from a position that a ‘someone' is the designated person to look after the issues around inclusion or around disability, or whatever it might be and genuinely move to a position where actually inclusion is everybody's business. It is a mindset shift that would move away from the dichotomy of ability and disability. Inclusion is never an end point, rather more like a wheel where people are getting on and off.   There is a deep appreciation for the person who authentically tries.  When you are genuinely aware and thinking about inclusion in everyday settings rather than just practicing it only in certain settings. We need to work within the diversity of our system and not exclude others.  In many ways it is an attitudinal shift, we all do things differently and learn differently regardless of disability or not.  We finish up the conversation with a discussion around Patricia's guide dog, Gaston, and the twitter account she created using Gaston as the author to help create awareness about inclusion and disability issues in society and community.  It is a good way to educate people about the work of a guide dog, and certain aspects of what they do and some of the barriers that society places illegally on guide dogs due to ignorance of policies and legislation.   Patricia's passion and enthusiasm for educating others on inclusion for everyone is certainly ignited through this conversation.  Come #ListenAndLearn Twitter: @mccartpm @gaston_mccarthy UDL Document resource: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/340233497_  

Transport Minister Eamon Ryan joined us on Friday's programme, for a wide-ranging interview that touched on a number of subjects, including the future of Shannon Airport. In terms of boosting traffic levels in Shannon, after COVID, he told us that instead of direct support to allow Shannon to secure more flights, he believes building up the region to enable it to attract more flights would be a better approach. But if these comments are reflective of government policy in the years to come, what does it mean for Shannon and for Clare? On Monday's Morning Focus, Gavin Grace spoke to ex-Shannon Councillor, Patricia McCarthy and ex Fianna Fáil TD and Minister Tony Killeen.

Featuring Topher Wagner, Patricia McCarthy, and Daniel Victory.

We’ve heard from the politicians and we’ve heard from the public health experts. But, how do you at home feel about the lifting of restrictions for Christmas? The government will announce later this evening the restrictions that will be in place over the festive period. We want to know what the public would like to see happen. How do you feel about the promise of seeing family for Christmas? Are you worried about another lockdown in January? Let us know your thoughts. On Friday's Morning Focus, Gavin Grace spoke to Martin Waldron of Craftworks on Parnell Street and former Mayor of Clare, Patricia McCarthy ahead of the government's announcement.

The government is a mere 8 weeks old and in that short frame of time, it's already been rocked by numerous scandals and controversies - but this latest scandal has overshadowed all that went before. After a delay of 140 days in government formation, was it worth the wait? On Tuesday's Morning Focus, Gavin Grace speaks with Former Minister Tony Killeen and Former Mayor of Clare, Patricia McCarthy about the future of the government and whether #GolfGate has placed an early expiry date on the 33rd Dáil...

On Wednesday's Morning Focus we spoke with Patricia McCarthy, former Shannon councillor and former Mayor of Clare about her reaction to the new restrictions brought back in. On the same subject we also spoke with Clare's Fianna Fáil Senator, Timmy Dooley, and finally, Dr Ann Hogan, Principal Medical Officer with HSE Mid West Community Healthcare, came on to discuss advice for the public around COVID-19.

The membership has been announced of the government's Taskforce for Aviation Recovery. Shannon Group CEO Mary Considine is one of 15 members of the new unit which will be tasked with plotting a future path for the sector. Transport Minister Shane Ross says the COVID-19 pandemic has been devastating for the aviation industry, and that this is a severe problem for Irish business generally. “If we can’t fly,” he said, then “economically, we die.” But what, if anything, will this new taskforce deliver for Shannon? Today, Gavin spoke with Taskforce member, and former Aer Arann Chief, Padraig O’Ceidigh and with long-time Shannon representative Patricia McCarthy.

Joe Biden is a truly horrible person. From a piece by Patricia McCarthy in the American Thinker titled: "The left’s two big albatrosses: Biden and Pelosi":  Biden is a lifelong corruptocrat, a known plagiarist, a pathological liar, and a truly mean and evil man. Biden grilled Clarence Thomas mercilessly at Thomas's confirmation hearings  for the Supreme Court. Joe Biden used a billion dollars in U.S. aid as leverage to get a Ukrainian prosecutor fired because that prosecutor was investigating his son, Hunter Biden.  Joe Biden bragged about this and explained how he did it on video so there is no doubt.  Biden and his son got $1.5 billion from the Chinese government while he was Vice President. How much would you have to sell out your country to get $1.5 billion from the China? Next, there are the credible and corroborated allegations of Tara Reade, a lifelong Democrat who worked in Joe Biden's senate office. She was penetrated, reported it, told others at the time, and lost her job. Finally there are all of the videos of Biden touching women and children.

In the early 18th century, country houses in Ireland underwent a dramatic physical transformation. In her book Life in the Country House in Georgian Ireland (Paul Mellon Centre, 2016), Patricia McCarthy describes the course of this evolution, as the Palladian style turned aristocratic domiciles in rural Ireland from fortified buildings into elegant structures with columns, porticos, and other classically-influenced touches. From there she goes on to describe the interiors of the homes, the functions of the various rooms, and the lives lived both by the upper class and the people who served them. By describing the manifold ways in which the occupants used the spaces, a portrait of their domestic lives emerges that enriches our understanding not just of country house life in the 18th century but the world of the Protestant elite in Georgian Ireland as well.

Patricia K. Macarthy is author of The Crimson Series, three books, to date, about vampires. We talk here about what makes Vampires so appealing to so many people, about their being symbolic of man's desire for supremacy, women's desire to be consumed, about the fringe elements of society, the attraction of eternal youth and immortality, confidence, the perfect villian whose weapon is seduction, alpha males, power, the lack of conscience, film, Halloween, the draw of fantasy, the defiance of death and the preciousness of time. During our conversation reference is made to poems by Byron and Goethe. Both example early literary treatment of Vampires [see vampires (and vampire fiction)]. The Vampire Female: "The Bride of Corinth" (1797) by: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1) Once a stranger youth to Corinth came, Who in Athens lived, but hoped that he From a certain townsman there might claim, As his father's friend, kind courtesy. (2) Son and daughter, they Had been wont to say Should thereafter bride and bridegroom be. But can he that boon so highly prized, Save tis dearly bought, now hope to get? They are Christians and have been baptized, He and all of his are heathens yet. (3) For a newborn creed, Like some loathsome weed, Love and truth to root out oft will threat. Father, daughter, all had gone to rest, And the mother only watches late; She receives with courtesy the guest, And conducts him to the room of state. The Giaour by Lord Byron was first published in 1813 and the first in his Oriental romance series. It proved to be a great success, consolidating Byron's reputation critically and commercially. Here's how it starts: No breath of air to break the wave That rolls below the Athenian's grave, That tomb which, gleaming o'er the cliff, First greets the homeward-veering skiff, High o'er the land he saved in vain; When shall such hero live again?
