Sinn Féin MEP for Ireland South which includes Kerry, Kathleen Funchion, talks to Treasa about the new 'Jennie's Law', which the cabinet is currently considering. She hopes the new domestic violence register will include those convicted of coercive control, and not just of physically violent crimes. Her former partner was jailed for coercive control.
MEP Funchion also talks to Treasa about a claim made by former EU Commissioner Phil Hogan. She disagrees with him that Irish farmers have “nothing to fear” from the Mercosur deal, claiming his statement is out of touch and misleading.
