In the run up to polling day on February 8th, we invited three inspiring women into The Women’s Podcast to examine the 2020 Irish General Election through a feminist lens. Which political parties and candidates supported Repeal, who is fighting for equal pay and how can we increase female representation and diversity in politics? In studio with Kathy Sheridan to discuss all of this was CEO of Women for Election, Ciarín De Buis, Independent Senator Lynn Ruane and Irish Times political journalist Jennifer Bray. Róisín Ingle was also here with some stories of the week, including the couple in Cork who are running against each other in the upcoming Irish election and a headline-grabbing convention in Florida called ‘Make Women Great Again’.
