Jim Gavin has been nominated by Fianna Fáil for the Irish Presidency, beating out MEP Billy Kelleher in a vote today. And, with Taoiseach Micheal Martin backing the candidate who lost the vote, what does it tell us about the party’s faith in his leadership?

Kieran is joined by Fianna Fáil MEP Billy Kelleher as well as Newstalk’s Political Correspondent Seán Defoe to discuss the nomination, and later Fionnan Sheahan, Ireland Editor with the Irish Independent and Ivan Yates, former Government Minister, join to discuss what this could mean for the future of the party.
