For Sinn Féin TD Peadar Tóibín - who supports the full retention of the Eighth Amendment - concerns about “sex selection” abortions and abortion when the foetus has been screened for Down Syndrome are key points on which the referendum campaign will be fought.
He talks to Hugh, Fiach and Sarah about his view on abortion and his opposition of his own party’s position.
Deputy Tóibín also answers questions about a difficult week for Sinn Féin, as the Barry McElduff affair raised questions over the party leadership and how Sinn Féin handles its own dark legacy.
