On this episode of The Tonight Show:


The Government accepts defeat over speaking time row, following the Ceann Comhairle's ruling. But is the coalition now weakened, with some in the regional group now saying they will only vote for government on a case-by-case basis? 


Plus, Trump gets his first trade war after he imposes tariffs on Chinese goods. But how soon will he come for the EU and what might this mean for Ireland? 


And plans to force public servants to spend more days back into the office are put on hold, but is remote working now under threat? 


Gavan Reilly speaks to:

  • Michael Healy-Rae TD, Independent
  • Sinéad Gibney TD, Social Democrats
  • Ian Kehoe, Co-founder, The Currency 
  • John Lee, Executive Editor, Irish Daily Mail
