200,000 new jobs created by 2025; a 7% reduction in carbon emissions per year and a rotating Taoiseach are just some of the pledges in the programme for government published today by Fine Gael, Fianna Fáil and the Green party. The next hurdle will be the leaders getting the program through their respective parties for approval, which is expected to begin this evening. To discuss all of this, Ivan is joined by Thomas Byrne, Fianna Fáil TD for Meath East and Richard Boyd Barrett, People Before Profit TD for Dun Laoghaire.
