Description

174 TDs entered the Dáil chamber at 11am, intending to nominate the new Taoiseach and thus get the new Government enacted.

However, after a fourth suspension, the Dáil has been abandoned until tomorrow…

What happened, and why does there seem to be so much chaos?

Kieran is joined by Alison O’Connor, Columnist with the Sunday Times and Broadcaster and Matt Carthy, Sinn Féin TD for Cavan-Monaghan, to discuss.
