Same but Different

Saving the World with Saoirse McHugh


Listen Later

Saoirse McHugh, who has been a force to be reckoned with since running for MEP as a Green Party candidate a few months back. Proving herself to be a voice of climate justice, equality and honesty, McHugh is now in the running for #GE2020 as a Green Party representative in the Mayo constituency and has been named as 'One to Watch' by The Irish Times. Catching the public's attention with thought-provoking outspoken appearances on Prime Time, calling out Peter Casey - to name one, her transparency and integrity has become an inspirational role model for myself and many of my generation. 

In this episode we discuss many aspects of becoming a politician, from the perspective of McHugh who has proclaimed she 'never thought' she'd get into politics. We uncover the realities of election promotion budgets, how media can drastically sway opinions, sexism within politics, hate and much more. 

Find Saoirse on twitter @saoirse_mchugh to find out more about her, or do your own research to find out more about her policies. There's definitely more to come from McHugh in the future.
