GIAF First Thought Talk: Clare Daly, Mick Wallace & Vincent Browne

Galway International Arts Festival (GIAF) is more than one of Europe's most engaging summer arts festivals. It also produces work throughout the year and offers its popular First Thought Talks series each Autumn. First Thought Talks go behind the curtain to look at the challenges we face in the world today, utilising live discussions with experts in their fields.
Clare Daly and Mick Wallace have been TDs for, respectively, Dublin North and Wexford from 2011 to 2019, when they were elected as MEPs for Dublin and South. Since 2011, they have worked on many campaigns, including opposition to austerity, protesting US military aircraft stopping at Shannon Airport, highlighting policing issues and shining a light on practices employed by NAMA’s in selling off its property portfolio. In this GIAF First Thought Talk, Daly and Wallace are in conversation with Vincent Browne, probably Ireland’s best-known journalist.
This First Thought Talk, entitled From Ireland to Europe: What Challenges for Two Left Wing MEPs?, took place on 12 October 2019 at NUI Galway's Aula Maxima.
