Well he finally did it, Simon Harris has called the election and while no concrete date has been given it has been confirmed for a Friday before Christmas. Join us this week as we discuss the potential dates for the election, Fine Gael losing another one of the Old Guard, political gangsters and how since the Financial Crisis there has been a protest vote in Ireland. It is unfocused, constantly shifting and has not toppled the status quo but its there, and rising.

The Shnug: Political Broadcast is a new weekly show where we will be taking a look at all things political.
