Sorcha Eastwood, Brexit advisor for the Alliance Party, was our guest on today’s show. We’ve been doing a number of interviews with politicians and staff at Stormont over the last few weeks to try and get a better grip of what is going on at Stormont and how much influence the Northern Irish parties are able to have in Brexit negotiations. We chatted about our perpetually absent government, the DUP and the Irish border, the possibilities of a ‘no deal’ Brexit, and the dark money scandal.
