Summary

The death of Yves Sakila on a Dublin street - is this the Irish version of George Floyd, but do enough people care? Brendan Ogle joins Matt, and they have a wider conversation on the impact of migration on Ireland, Brendan's personal experiences of listening to racist comment, and they discuss work visas for non-EU citizens. What are the real issues in the latest RTÉ hoo-ha? Reaction to Israel's illegal kidnapping of flotilla members and why a football international with Israel cannot take place in Dublin. As a former train driver, Brendan reacts to Irish Rail's failed €50 million IT investment, and Matt asks if the DAA should be allowed to spend €5 billion on extending Dublin Airport.
