A Clare TD says the Government has been caught napping on regulating vapes and e-cigarettes. According to the Institute of Public Health, 18% of 15-16 year-olds are current users. The state is currently moving to ban the advertising of e-cigarettes and restrict packaging design, but Sinn Féin is calling for an anti-vaping programme to be established, along with legislation to outlaw disposable and single-use products. The Party's Spokesperson for Further and Higher Education, Shannon Deputy McGettigan says there's serious problems.

Sinn Féin's Mid-Ulster MP Cathal Mallaghan speaks about the planned UK digital ID card and why his party calls it an attack on the Good Friday agreement.

The aid flotilla which is attempting to break Israel's naval blockade of Gaza has been attacked by drones in international waters off the coast of Greece. The move is widely seen as an escalation of Israel's attempts to stop the flotilla from reaching its destination.The organisers said at least 13 explosions were heard on and around boats and objects were dropped on at least 10 boats from drones or aircraft.The 51-vessel flotilla carrying food and essential supplies has about 500 international volunteers, including Irish pro-Palestine activists.Italy is to send a naval ship to come to the vessels' assistance while Spain's prime minister Pedro Sánchez said his country is sending a warship to protect the flotilla.“The government of Spain insists that international law be respected and that the right of our citizens should be respected to sail through the Mediterranean in safe conditions,” he said.Sinn Féin Senator Chris Andrews is among 22 Irish participants on the flotilla and he has called on the Government to protect its citizens on the flotilla and “as a matter of urgency, they need to arrange for an observer vessel to accompany the flotilla to ensure Israel does not violate the human rights of its participants”.So what will happen next? Irish Times reporter Naomi O'Leary, who has been talking to people on the flotilla, explains.Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by John Casey and Andrew McNair. Hosted on Acast.

Sinn Féin's Finance Spokesperson and Deputy Leader Pearse Doherty speaks to Drivetime in response to Minister Paschal Donohoe.

 Catherine Connolly – A President for all of IrelandIn less than five weeks' time the next Uachtarán na hÉireann will be elected by the people of the 26 counties. Election day is 24 October. That the people of the North and of the diaspora will be denied a vote is a disgraceful consequence of the efforts over recent years by Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael (FFFG) to prevent the extension of the presidential franchise. Both parties are frightened by the prospect of people, who have never voted for either party, voting in Presidential elections.  They want to retain the status quo not change it. This partitionist approach also influences the resistance of Micheál Martin and others to the growing potential for a referendum vote in favour of Irish Unity.Last weekend's decision by the Sinn Féin Ard Chomhairle to endorse Catherine Connolly's campaign is, to quote Mary Lou, a ‘game changer.' Sinn Féin has many capable, articulate leaders who would have been great candidates. But the party chose to join with others as part of a left alternative. This was a courageous decision which gives those who can vote in the election a clear choice between the conservative politics of FFFG or a progressive and positive alternative.  Cearta –Marching for RightsUnder the banner of CEARTA – meaning RIGHTS - tens of thousands took to the streets of Dublin on Saturday to demand equality for the Irish language. In scenes reminiscent of An Dream Dearg in Belfast three years ago, Irish speakers and activists from across the island, wearing their distinctive red with a white circle, marched from Parnell Square to the gates of Leinster House.The protest was an exuberant and joyful celebration of our language and culture and of the demand that the Irish government implement policy changes that will protect and enhance the lives of Irish speakers and of the Gaeltacht communities. There was live music from Ispíní na hÉireann, Niamh Ní Dhubhgháin and Breandán Ó Beaglaoich and others. Niamh Ní Dhubhgháin performed a song about the needs of young people, especially those living in Gaeltacht areas who are finding it impossible to buy or rent or build a home. Go raibh maith agat Bruce MorrisonIn two weeks' time there will be a celebration in New York to mark 30 years of the Morrison Visa Programme. The event will remember the introduction of the visa legislation that provided an estimated 45,000 Irish people with a legal pathway into the USA in the early 1990s.The Morrison Visa was the brainchild of former US Congressman Bruce Morrison who introduced a program that allocated visas to nationals who up to that point were underrepresented in US Immigration. Bruce however, is also known for his hard work in support of the peace process. He was part of a group of Irish American business, trade union and political leaders – the Connolly House Group – who played a pivotal role in creating the conditions for the 1994 IRA cessation. Bruce and his colleagues continued to be active for years afterward and Bruce remains so today. 

Last weekend, over the course of 24 hours, two men were stabbed and seriously injured in separate incidents in Dublin's city centre.An English tourist was hospitalised on Saturday night after he was stabbed in Temple Bar and on Sunday, a 17-year-old teenager was left in a critical condition after he was repeatedly stabbed on Dublin's Eden Quay.These latest attacks will undoubtedly reinforce beliefs that the streets of the Irish capital are becoming unsafe. They also come in the wake of a surge in attacks against immigrants, particularly the Indian community.Minister for Justice Jim O'Callaghan recently pushed back against any suggestions that Dublin was unsafe, arguing that the capital city is actually becoming safer. In contrast, Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald said earlier this year that people living, working and visiting the city “have been robbed of their sense of safety”.In today's episode, Irish Times crime and security editor Conor Lally joins Sorcha Pollak to discuss the latest crime figures in the capital and how recent assaults are impacting people's perception of personal safety.Produced by Suzanne Brennan and Declan Conlon.

Independent Catherine Connolly speaks to William as Sinn Féin back her bid for the Áras

Pearse Doherty, Deputy Leader and Finance Spokesperson, Sinn Fein speaking on Sinn Fein's presidential backing of Catherine Connolly, Robert Troy's comments on housing, and the Budget.

Cén teachtaireacht atá faighte ag ionadaithe tofa o mhór shiúil na Gaeilge agus cén fáth nach bhfuil iarrthóir fhéin ag Sinn Féin.

D'fhógair Sinn Féin ag an deireadh seachtaine go mbeidh siad ag tabhairt tacaíochta don iarrthóir neamhspleách Catherine Connolly i dtoghchán na hUachtaránachta.

Jason and Ben react with disbelief to Late Late Show host Patrick Kielty's proclamation that you can say whatever you want on RTÉ, before turning their disbelief to both Sinn Féin's "game-changing" presidential announcement and the way people talk about Christians.

Just over a month before Ireland goes to the polls, Áras hopefuls continue their path to the presidency. Several more local authorities will decide whether to nominate an independent candidate, while Catherine Connolly will officially launch her campaign after officially receiving support from Sinn Féin. All to chat with Pat Leahy, Political Editor for the Irish Times.

Minister of State Robert Troy said today that he was not trying to exclude those with a disability, carers or a parent without access to childcare when suggesting that local authorities should prioritise workers when it comes to social housing.But, he has maintained that he wants work to pay for workers.With the housing crisis as it currently is, does that say something about whether work pays or not?Joining Kieran to discuss this and more is Eoin O'Broin, Sinn Féin Spokesperson on Housing & TD for Dublin Mid-West and Seamus McGrath, Fianna Fáil Spokesperson on Housing & TD for Cork South-Central.

Joining Brendan to discuss the Sunday papers are: Siobhán Fenton, writer and former deputy head of press for Sinn Féin; Dan O'Brien, Chief Economist at the Institute of International and European Affairs and columnist with The Currency; Louise Burne, Political Correspondent at the Irish Examiner, Prof Gary Murphy, Professor of Politics at DCU

After weeks of speculation, Sinn Féin yesterday decided not to run a party candidate in the Presidential election, instead putting their support behind Catherine Connolly. Matt Carthy TD explains the decision.

Catherine Connolly, Independent presidential candidate / Eoin Ó Broin, Sinn Féin TD for Dublin Mid West / Kieran O'Donnell, Minister of State at the Department of Health and Fine Gael TD for Limerick City / Peadar Tóibín, Aontú party leader and TD for Meath West / Jen Cummins, Social Democrats TD for Dublin South Central 

Pat Leahy and Jack Horgan-Jones join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:The nomination process for presidential candidates rumbles on. At the time of recording independent Gareth Sheridan has the best chance, needing two more local councils to back him. A report today looking at Sheridan's business partner's links with Russia may not be welcomed by his campaign as councillors around the country weigh up their decision.Meanwhile social conservative Maria Steen is gathering nominations in the Oireachtas. Can she get over the line before next Wednesday's deadline?Mary Lou McDonald continues to be coy about who will get Sinn Féin's backing, perhaps enjoying an opportunity to toy with the media. But who will it be - Catherine Connolly, or one of their own?Budget 2026 is drawing near. So far the focus of political debate has been on the withdrawal of one-off payments. It is an issue that cuts through, as Opposition parties well know.Plus the panelists pick their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week, including columns on a rescinded award and Ireland's rudeness problem and a look at sport's greatest quirkiest cheating scandals.

Shannon's TD is calling for an end to be brought to the use of the town's airport as a US military stopover. Sinn Féin Deputy Donna McGettigan has claimed removing the triple lock mechanism would further damage the country's neutrality which she says is already "undermined" by the US military's relationship with the Clare base. In the first three months of this year, 71 permits to land in Shannon were granted for aircraft carrying munitions of war. Speaking in the Dáil, Deputy McGettigan insists the facility requires "ethical" funding instead of increased militarisation.

Make up your mind time for Sinn Féin has finally arrived, presidential candidates go ploughing, and budget spats in the Dáil

Kerry’s only opposition TD, Sinn Féin’s Pa Daly says the government has missed an opportunity to keep Tralee Court House where it has been for nearly 200 years, in Ashe Street. He talks to Jerry about his belief that it’s a mistake to prioritise the upgrade of Ashe Memorial Hall over the historic court house.

Sinn Féin is about to make a “gamechanger” move on the presidential election this weekend, keeping the race for the Áras buzzing. Will Gareth Sheridan make it onto the ballot through the council route? Could other independents join him? Conor McGregor has already pulled out, and Simon Harris says good riddance.In Donabate, a four-year search has ended in heartbreak, with gardai believing they've found the remains of Daniel Aruebose.On the international stage, a damning UN report, mounting EU pressure, and cultural and sporting isolation put Israel's actions in Gaza under a microscope.
