Pat Leahy joins Hugh Linehan to talk about the first televised debate of the presidential campaign which took place on Virgin Media Television last night.
Independent Catherine Connolly, Fine Gael’s Heather Humphreys and Fianna Fáil’s Jim Gavin grappled with questions on diplomacy, Gaza, funding for the Defence Forces, the housing crisis and the display of the Tricolour.
As a television programme, it was underwhelming. But who came out on top and who struggled? Hugh and Pat identify a clear winner and a clear loser.
