Why is Fine Gael sticking with controversial candidate John McGahon?
Update: 2024-11-20
Description
Fine Gael is doubling down on its support for a General Election candidate who was filmed punching a man in the head. John McGahon was 28 years-old and a Fine Gael councillor, at the time of the altercation outside a pub in Dundalk six years ago. Now he’s running for a seat in the Dáil – which Taoiseach Simon Harris defended on Monday night’s Leaders Debate. But questions remain about how McGahon was nominated for the party ticket, amid accusations of double standards from the opposition. Irish Times political correspondent Harry McGee has the latest.
Presented by Sorcha Polllak. Produced by Suzanne Brennan and Aideen Finnegan.
