Yesterday, on the show we covered the story that Bank of Ireland plans to close 88 branches in Ireland and a further 15 in Northern Ireland.

This is a major blow for so many towns and villages across the country including the village of Bunbeg situated in the region of Gaoth Dobhair, in Donegal.

Independent county councillor Micheál Mac Giolla Easbuig spoke to us today about the impact on the region.
