We've just seen Keir Starmer's government threatening Irish writer, Sally Rooney and many western governments have decided to take more action against people protesting against the genocide in Gaza than against the Israeli regime that is committing it. You'll also have seen hundreds of people arrested on the streets of London for peacefully protesting while holding signs saying 'I Support Palestine Action.' This is absolute madness.

Joining me on the podcast is another brave Irish woman who was one of the people who arrested at the recent protest, Sinéad Nic Shiacais. She is a longtime activist, environmentalist and all round goodie. She tells her story here. Thank you, Sinéad.
