Wake Up to Money

With attacks on Lebanon signalling peace in the Middle East is yet to be guaranteed, Sean Farrington will be discussing what it all means for the economy at home and abroad. In Ireland, anger at fuel prices rises has turned into blockades of depots and roads. We'll be hearing from an industry boss about what's at the heart of the protests. And why sneaking out of the office to watch the cricket no longer means dodging work. We'll be finding out all about the cricket stadium that doubles as a co-working space.
