Episode EP 150 - Double Standards, a Military Union and the Rise of the Far Right

0:00 37:51

This week Clare and Mick are back in Strasbourg for another plenary session. They call out the EU's hypocrisy and cynicism in commemorating the International Day on the Rights of the Child and the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women while refusing to call for a ceasefire in Gaza. Are Palestinian children and women less deserving of rights and safety? They also discuss a vote on changing the EU Treaties that would push the EU towards further militarisation, the same day the Irish government announces it plans to abolish the Triple Lock. Lastly, they talk about the rise of the far-right and what they think the reasons for their success are.
