Description

This week, after 14 years in office, Michael D Higgins left Áras an Uachtaran for the last time and Catherine Connolly was sworn in as the 10th President of Ireland. 


In her inauguration speech, she said that the president should be “a unifying presence—a steady hand, but also a catalyst for change”. 


Irish Examiner deputy political editor Paul Hosford joins the podcast to give us the details as Ms Connolly aims to hit the ground running as she takes the reins.
