Newly-minted Minister of State Neale Richmond joins host David Murphy, Sandra Hurley and Micheál Lehane to discuss the dangerous territory his party colleague Paschal Donohoe has strayed into. He discusses his recent "decent row" with Brexit diehards in London, who he says are a diminished force, and outlines his ministerial priorities.

The resignation of Damien English was the polar opposite of last year's painful fall of (Robet) Troy. But it's soured the New Year for the Government. Sinn Féin TD Mark Ward says a quick exit was "the right thing" to do. He speaks frankly to Your Politics about living with multiple sclerosis, homelessness, and the need to "break the stigma".

Leo Varadkar has chosen his team to tackle the "number of pressing challenges" which he says will define his second term at the helm. After a day of high ceremony - if not drama - at Leinster House, host David Murphy and Political Correspondent Micheál Lehane give a concise and rapid overview of the Cabinet reshuffle.

It's the final countdown to the changing of the guard, and the Your Politics team assembles to consider all the angles. We ponder the day's choreography, and consider what to expect from Leo Mk II as he readies to reach for an in-tray filled to bursting. There's the all-important view from the bridge, and does Brussels beckon for Micheál Martin?

Despite some "kicking and screaming", Patrick Costello insists climate action is on course. The recently-returned prodigal Green TD reckons his legal challenge to an EU-Canada trade deal has given the Attorney General a "legal headache". Your Politics discusses the logistics of the Big Switcheroo, and the dangers of incorporeal Cabinet meetings.

Minister for Higher Education Simon Harris swears he doesn't know where he'll be after the reshuffle, insists that FG and FF are at one on housing, and says that being in power for over a decade "is a positive". He tells Your Politics that the next election will a significant moment for the country. And declares a vested interest in the live crib.

The winds of change are blowing & legalisation is only a matter of time, says Gino Kenny, People Before Profit TD, who believes that cannabis use is a personal - not a criminal - matter. Join the team to review a week where Leo incurred the wrath of Generation Rent, Pachal scored a big win, and the prodigal pair return to pastures Green.

Sinn Féin's Kathleen Funchion is keen to "get in there to make changes". But she tells Your Politics that she isn't even taking her seat for granted. Warning against "criticism for the sake of criticism", she says the Govt is on the right track on childcare, and talks about moving back in with her parents, with her two children, to save a deposit.

Ahead of attending the COP in Sharm El Sheikh, Minister for the Environment Eamon Ryan reveals that the Cabinet has approved an offshore wind programme, and puts his weight behind a loss and damage fund. Amid global unrest, he tells host Paul Cunningham, Sandra Hurley and Micheál Lehane, that "no-one will ever go to war over renewables".

The Govt's on the back foot over shelter for refugees. Leo and Pearse clash horns again, with the Tánaiste executing a "training ground manoeuvre" on "Kwasi Doherty". Are things getting petty in Fianna Fáil over the return of the prodigal MacSharry? And will late opening for clubs and pubs cause ructions? Join Sandra Hurley & Co. to find out.
