Chat Without Borders

Did you stay up?

A big thank you to, clockwise from top left: Lucky Khumbula, Olga Cronin, Kevin Higgins, ‘Preposterous‘. Bernard Purcell, Neil Curran and celebrity accountant Vanessa Foran, our panel on last night’s Broadsheet on the Telly.

The show, produced by Neil, can be viewed in its entirety above.

Bernard, editor of the London-based The Irish World, shared his thoughts on the current Brexit negotiations and backstops, elegantly schooling ‘Preposterous’ (who later apologised for his orneriness during the debate) on the finer points of the remain argument in the process.

Kevin, a legal advisor to the Tuam Home Survivors’ Network, shared his thoughts on the resignation of a survivor representative from Minister Zappone’s Mother and Baby Home forum.

And Lucky, of the Movement of Asylum Seekers in Ireland (MASI), discussed employment in Direct Provision and his own four hour daily commute.

A little light swearing.

Bernard is the best guest you’ve ever had on the show, which is mainly because he’s the first person who actually knows a bit about what he’s talking about rather than the ‘5 lads in a pub’ style you normally get.

Aided massively by no Johnny Keenan throwing logical petrol bombs every 2 minutes.

surely ‘lobbing’ rather than ‘throwing’
