This week on MOTH News Live, we examine a series of stories raising difficult questions about the future of Ireland—North and South. Following the discovery of military-grade Semtex near the border, the arrest of a trainee solicitor, and the political row over a decision to grant bail, Johnny Vedmore asks whether these are isolated events—or signs of deeper tensions that deserve closer attention. Keith Walsh then explores whether Ireland's political landscape is changing. Could recent events reshape relationships between the major parties? How are politics evolving on both sides of the border? We'll also bring you the latest developments in the Dundrum House Hotel/IPAS controversy and discuss what a new planning decision could mean for government accountability and the rule of law. Join Keith Walsh, Johnny Vedmore and Al as they look beyond the headlines and ask the questions others aren't asking. LIVE Friday 31 July | 11am
