Former President interview
The Leader said the former President had been reluctant to enter political debate out of respect for the Government and Taoiseach.
I think the Leader was looking for the word "comprehensive".

I was going to use the word "specific". I heard the conversation with the former President Mrs. Robinson this morning. I must say I thought it was a very measured conversation. I must go back and listen to it again. I thought I was listening to a different station.

People who are conditioned by the media do not hear the hard questions. They are living in a bubble.

As I gave the Senator great latitude, I ask him to allow the Leader to continue, with interruption.

One thing that struck me during the interview was the reluctance of the former President to engage in a political discourse out of respect for the Government and the Taoiseach, which I thought was very interesting.
