Investigative journalist, Paul Connolly, journeys deep inside right-wing Ireland meeting some of its most controversial figures in a series of no-holds-barred interviews.

All have been accused of being far-right agitators, but are they?

In this episode, we meet Derek Blighe, leader of Ireland First, as well as Andy Heasman and Ross Lahive of The Irish People.

We’ll also explore the history of right-wing parties in Ireland, and what has led to an increase in candidates running for the upcoming elections.
