Conversations with Sam Assad by Samuel Assad

Episode notes

In this episode, I sit down with Louise O’Reilly - Sinn Féin TD for Dublin Fingal West and the party’s spokesperson on Social Protection, Rural and Community Development.

From her early days in the trade union movement to taking a seat on Sinn Féin’s front bench, we talk about the fight for workers’ rights, the debate around Irish reunification, life in opposition, and her journey into politics.

Along the way, we explore what drives her, how she approaches political change, and the challenges and opportunities of representing her community in the Dáil.
