The Godfather, the Garda commissioner & the McGahon dynasty. Another Free State Election Special

Free State with Joe Brolly and Dion Fanning

2d ago • 48 mins

What does the selection of John McGahon as a general election candidate tell us about Fine Gael and their attitude to power? On Free State today, Dion and Joe look at the controversy, what it tells us about Irish politics and how power has been acquired in Ireland through the generations. Will people continue to vote as their forebears vote or has that vanished in Ireland today? Joe also considers the new Derry manager and why the professional managerial cartel could spell doom for the GAA.


Free State with Joe Brolly and Dion Fanning is a Gold Hat Production in association with SwanMcG.
