Politics and International Relations // Seen and Not Heard: An Interview with the Young Greens
It's been clear to many keeping a track of the current Irish Government that the Green Party's involvement in the coalition has caused a large amount of contention within various sects of the party. One of these sects is the Young Greens. Myself and Mícheál Ó'Fuartháin on behalf of Frontier got in contact with the then but now former Chair of the Young Greens Tara Gilsenan to ask if we could get an overall view of what it's like on the ground as a member of the party and with that we found ourselves in an interview with five Young Greens free to ask whatever questions we liked and this is what happened.
