Clare Daly: Address to Easter Rising Commemoration Ceremony at Sligo Cemetery: On Easter Sunday 2020, the COVID-19 crisis made it impossible to hold the traditional commemoration of the Easter Rising at the Republican Plot in Sligo Cemetery. The ceremony was instead held online. The event was chaired by Sligo Councillor Declan Bree and an address was given by video from Brussels by MEP Clare Daly. This is the audio of her speech. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace

EP15 - Black Lives Matter: Besides looking at arms exports in the security and defence committee and the environmental impacts of European agricultural policy, Clare and Mick speak about the uprisings against systemic racism stateside and worldwide, the murder of George Floyd, the brutal crackdowns by militarized police, and the poor response from the European Union's foreign affairs minister Josep Borrell. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace
58 min listen
EP8 - Prisons and Prisoners: The COVID-19 crisis has forced governments and penal institutions all over the world to face the issue of prisoners' rights and prison conditions.

EP2 - COVID-19, Refugees in Greece, and the Rapporteurs: Back with their second episode of I4C Trouble, MEPs Daly & Wallace discuss the pressing topic on everyone's minds: the global coronavirus pandemic and the emergency response in Europe.

EP1 - What Happens In Brussels: In the debut episode of I4C Trouble, MEPs Daly & Wallace discuss their previous eight years of work in the Irish Parliament, the move to Brussels and their experience so far of the European Parliament. The failures of mainstream political reporting are a serious problem for the public's understanding of what's going on at the centre of power. But what can be done about it?

52 min listen
EP11 - COVID-19 and Social Care with Jane Johnstone: In the eleventh episode, disability and autism activist Jane Johnston tells Clare and Mick how the pandemic has impacted carers and the people they care for, and gives her thoughts on what’s included in the Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael joint framework document.

EP9 - Europe at a Crossroads: the week in review: Clare and Mick are back with a quick round-up of the week in politics at the European Parliament. Whether it's about the deterioration of the rule of law in member states or hiking defence spending while cutting health budgets, the coronavirus continues to place the European Union at a crossroads. Our MEPs tell Damien about their work across each of their committees, and how things in Brussels are shaping up while most of the EU is in lockdown. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace
16 min listen
EP38 - Big Pharma In The Driving Seat: All eyes on the EU (for once) as details begin to emerge of the bungling of the vaccine rollout… In other news, Clare discusses EU policing cooperation with Israel, how Russian interference is being used to justify increased EU arms expenditure, and we have some spectacular stream-of-consciousness musings from Mick, bringing us from the Common Agricultural Policy to why the western media is so obsessed with Navalny, via Yemen and Belarus. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace
46 min listen
EP3 - Pandemic, NAMA and Aviation: In the third episode of I4C Trouble, MEPs Daly & Wallace are in Brussels to address the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its effects during the European Parliament's emergency plenary to deal with the crisis. Wallace discusses the Irish government's controversial decision to quietly publish the Comptroller and Auditor General's report on NAMA during a public health crisis. Daly speaks about the historic impact of the pandemic on the transport sector, airlines' demands for bail-outs, implications for workers and the public, and the need for a radical rethink of aviation in the future.

50 min listen
EP4 - Solidarity, Sanctions, Migration and Privacy during COVID-19: In the fourth episode of I4C Trouble, MEPs Daly & Wallace continue to delve into some of the key issues raised by the COVID-19 pandemic, chief among them the failures of the EU to show solidarity, internally and externally. They look at the genocidal effects of US sanctions on Iran and Venezuela during the crisis, discuss the worsening situation and abuses of rights in migrant camps on EU borders and warn that the government's emergency response to COVID-19 could very easily become a power grab, eroding data protection and privacy in the long term. Kindly presented by Damien Thomson, political adviser to the GUE/NGL group. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace
52 min listen
EP5 - Propaganda and Sanctions against Iran with Ali Alizadeh: In this episode of I4C Trouble we have our very first guest - Iranian-British writer and anti-war activist Ali Alizadeh. Our MEPs Clare Daly and Mick Wallace talk sanctions and Iran, with attention to the current coronavirus crisis. Alizadeh invites us to rethink what we think we know about Iran. Is Iran just a “rogue state” or is this term part of a prolonged campaign to delegitimize Iran? Kindly presented by Damien Thomson, political adviser to the GUE/NGL group. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace
65 min listen
EP10 - Discussing Venezuela with Medea Benjamin: Clare and Mick interview Medea Benjamin of Code Pink about the ongoing media and sanctions war being perpetrated against the government of Venezuela.

57 min listen
EP7 - Economics of the Pandemic with Emma Clancy: The COVID-19 pandemic is a disaster for the whole world but one of the reasons it is hitting so hard in Europe is the economic policy of the European Union. We speak to Emma Clancy, a researcher and activist on economic policy and tax justice, about why now is the time for a radical upheaval of EU economic governance. Recorded on April 3, 2020. Kindly presented by Damien Thomson, political adviser to the GUE/NGL group. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace

EP14 - Never A Dull Moment: As the lockdown gradually eases, the Commission is unveiling a hodgepodge of plans and work is furiously underway to scrutinize them all. Clare and Mick break down the highlights of a busy week at the European Parliament: state aid rules and bail outs; food sustainability and big farms; public private partnerships and corporate lobbying; how the EU enables the settlement of the Palestinian territories; the rule of law during the pandemic; and the EU's flawed COVID-19 economic recovery plan. Bonus content: how to make sure you find a partner at the dance. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace

EP6 - Solidarity Me Arse!: “We’re all in this together” is one of the mantras we’ve read and heard most over the last month in dealing with the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. But are we really? In episode 6 of I4C Trouble Clare and Mick take a closer look at modern day solidarity and some of the issues that would suggest not all individuals, businesses and Governments are in it together. Kindly presented by Damien Thomson, political adviser to the GUE/NGL group. Thanks for listening! ? by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace

EP20 - Defence, Medicine and Big Data: In an episode recorded on the last day before the summer recess, which seems like a lifetime ago now, Clare and Mick discuss the controversy in Ireland over Barry Cowen's dismissal by Taoiseach Micheál Martin.

62 min listen
History says, don't hope: Clare and Mick give their reaction to the US presidential election and discuss what changes the world is likely to see under Biden and Harris. Meanwhile, The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees has run out of money at a time that the new US vice president, Kamala Harris, has promised to provide $70 million a week to Israeli security. Elsewhere, the fallout from CAP is still rankling with our two MEPs, particularly the clueless coverage of the deal back in Ireland. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace
43 min listen
EP16 - Make Austerity Green Again?: Hot on the heels of the June plenary Clare and Mick compare notes on the big votes of the week, including their motion on the Black Lives Matter movement, the EU-Israel Euro-Mediterranean Aviation Agreement, and yet another human rights debate on Hong Kong. And, as the Green Party membership gears up to vote on whether to form a coalition with Fianna Fáil & Fine Gael, our MEPs get down to brass tacks with the joint Programme for Government. Is it the green revolution it's cracked up to be or is it a recipe for five more years of selling out? by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace

39 min listen
Things you didn't know you didn't know: We all heard of Jacinda Ardern's electoral win in New Zealand, but not a peep from the media about the landslide win in the Bolivian elections. Clare, Mick and Damien discuss the democracy in action which brought about the monumental win of MAS (Movement Towards Socialism party) in Bolivia, and the rejection of last year's right-wing coup. We've all read about the protests in Belarus, but who has said anything about the protests in Bulgaria? Clare is back from her trip around Bulgaria, where she is becoming a household name for taking on the corrupt Bulgarian Government and violent neo-nazis operating in the country. We're all braced for the worst when it comes to finding Funghi, but we're not all braced for the worst when it comes to CAP - a catastrophe for biodiversity. The European Parliament just voted for a destructive CAP (Common Agricultural Policy), which will bring about massive biodiversity loss and fund emitters with public money (30 by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace

EP12 - A Week In The European Parliament Under Lockdown: Clare and Mick discuss parliamentary dress codes, propaganda efforts by the European External Action Service and the work they have been getting up to over the last week in their seven parliamentary committees. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace
56 min listen
Golfgate and more Golfgate: With Damien yet to return from the summer recess Clare and Mick sneak into the studio to discuss the Galway society dinner scandal that seized Irish politics for a week, stampeded all the way to Brussels and claimed the head of Ursula von der Leyen's biggest commissioner. What did it all mean? What did it achieve? And as Alexander Lukaschenko's days begin to look as if they are numbered, Mick asks, what's next for Belarus? by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace
49 min listen
EP37 - Vaccine Who?: Vaccines are still the rage as the 'thick begins to plotten' and Europe and the UK head towards a trade war. A busy week in the Parliament - Clare is dealing with MEP's who are obsessed with electoral interference and Mick is looking for degrowth to save the planet... by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace
43 min listen
EP36 - A field full of holes: Life goes on in the Parliament, while Europe is getting lost in the COVID mist. The EU is under pressure as it finds itself at the mercy of Big Pharma Elsewhere, Clare discusses European Arrest Warrants and Julian Assange, while Mick believes he has more support in Ireland than Alexander Navalny has in Russia and therefore the EU should back Wallace to run Ireland. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace

EP 43 - Hypocrisy Unbounded by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace
42 min listen
The Joy of Sex: Mick believes Damien is attempting to cancel him - well, at the very least his stories of gratuitous sex. Meanwhile, Clare discusses "The Joy of Sex", her Fundamental Rights Report, the pleanary speech that made headlines across Spain and Catalunya, and being compared to a rapist by a far right headbanger. And Mick provides more background to the trouble brewing in Ethiopia. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace
37 min listen
We're not dead, we've just been busy: Brexit is boring Mick and Clare to death, so much so that people think they may actually be dead because RTE covers nothing from Europe these days other than Brexit. However, it doesn't stop the two Irish MEP's discussing everything from the Balkans, to Iran, to human rights to the leaky water pipes in Dublin that Mick wasn't allowed fix. Oh, and of course their new book - "The Coalition of the Unwilling" - which covers their infamous break-in at Shannon Airport. by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace

EP 161 - Ceasefire Calls, #CareRef, Assange, Navalny and the Nature Restoration Law's Grand Finale: A bunch of important votes and debates in the EP plenary drew the attention of the Irish media this week. After nearly five years of ignoring the case of Julian Assange, MEPs finally agreed to allow a discussion of his case onto the agenda. So where does his case stand now? The hotly-debated Nature Restoration Law - one of the flagship pieces of legislation of this mandate - finally made it over the line in a watered down form. How should it be understood? After four months of cowardly semantics about "humanitarian pauses," the European Parliament finally backed a call for a real ceasefire in Gaza. But is it something to celebrate or has it come too late? Following the appalling death of Alexei Navalny in a Russian prison, are MEPs using it to pursue a geopolitical agenda? And as Ireland gears up for a constitutional referendum, is the Care Amendment a genuine improvement, or does it sw by I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace
