Episode description

There was a strong Swedish-Irish connection when Ireland went to the polls around ten days ago as former Gothenburg resident and current South Dublin council member Eoin O'Broin stood in the Dublin Midwest constituency for the Social Democrats.

Standing in the same race as Sinn Féin's housing spokesperson of the same name, Eoin got involved in party politics after coming to Sweden in 2004, and despite not being successful this time, our own Swedish-Irish "sosse" has his heart very much set on a Dáil seat in the future - in this episode, he takes us behind the scenes of his election campaign, his political history, and why posters still matter in Irish politics.
