Helen McEntee - Brexit, the EU and career to date

It was a great pleasure to get the opportunity to speak to the Minister of State for European Affairs Helen McEntee in Government Buildings. Minister McEntee has had a meteoric rise in Irish politics since being elected a Fine Gael TD in 2013. Minister McEntee has held the European Affairs portfolio since 2017 a big part of which placed her at the center of the EU negotiations around the Withdrawal Agreement. In this episode, Minister McEntee reflects on her early days in politics, her thoughts on women in politics, being both European and Irish, the EU, her future, and of course, Brexit. Hosted on Acast.
