Holly Cairns : Politics is Personal
Manage episode 419243456 series 2934873
Topics covered : Politics, Gaza, threat of the Far-right, people power.
This week I speak to farmer, scientist, feminist and leader of the Social Democrats, Holly Cairns.
She lives in West Cork on her family farm with her partner Barry, her dog Hei Hei and her cat Blaze.
And in this conversation she talks about growing up in a blended family, her bond with her mother, how she got into politics, her stance on the devastating situation in Gaza, the threat of the Far-right and the importance of unity, now, more than ever.
I have wanted to sit down and chat to Holly for a very long time as she's someone I really admire so I am delighted that we made it happen.
We met in 2019 for the first time and I liked her instantly.
She was genuine, down to earth and great company and I for one, am so glad that she decided to venture into politics, as her voice is so badly needed in the Dáil.
