Last weekend’s referendum defeats have jolted the political establishment. How could all major parties and many other players have got it so badly wrong - and does the failure reveal something deeper going on?
To discuss this Hugh Linehan is joined by Jack Horgan Jones, Theresa Reidy and Jane Suiter on today’s Inside Politics Podcast.
