Description

The Jim Gavin report has landed, but does it really explain how Fianna Fáil handled repeated warnings about a serious tenant dispute? Or does it reveal a party too willing to accept reassurances, too slow to ask hard questions, and too determined to protect a chosen candidate?  Fionnán Sheahan outlines the reporting behind the story, the weeks of verification, and the moment the party’s bluff was called. Irish Independent Political Editor Mary Regan assesses the damage, the unanswered questions around Michael Martin’s role, and why Fianna Fáil remains deeply divided.  Host: Kevin Doyle Guest: Fionnán Sheehan & Mary Regan
