Inside Politics podcast: Rating Leo’s response to Ophelia

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar held a number of press conferences throughout the passing of Storm Ophelia, did live interviews and donned a high-vis jacket to assess the resulting damage in its aftermath.

How did his performance rate? On the latest Inside Politics podcast, Pat Leahy, Sarah Bardon and Harry McGee of our politics team join Hugh Linehan to discuss the Government's disaster response and compare it to that of previous such trials.

The panel also discuss the Oireachtas Committee on the Eighth Amendment to the Constitution, the Fianna Fáil ardfheis last weekend and the upcoming EU summit, where Brexit will take centre stage.
