Pat Leahy and Jack Horgan-Jones join Hugh Linehan to look at the week in Irish politics:
- Foreign policy came to Dáil Éireann as Government and opposition tried and failed to agree a motion on the crisis in Israel and Palestine.
- Dismay at the Department of Health and the HSE over a shortfall in funding for next year spills out into the open.
- The political response to devastating flooding in Cork and the reality that climate mitigation will be among the State's biggest problems for - at least - decades to come.
Plus the panel pick their Irish Times stories of the week:
Does President Michael D. Higgins see Russia as a colonial power - and why should we care?
A weary response to Time Out's claim that Smithfield is the second-coolest place on on the planet.
