Programme 257, John Walshe on Education Journalism and Politics pt 2 (25-5-16)

Presented and produced by Seán Delaney.

On this week's programme I bring you the second part of my interview with John Walshe who after spending 4 decades as an education journalist was appointed special adviser to education and skills minister Ruairí Quinn. He wrote about this experience in An Education: How an outsider became an insider - and learned what really goes on in Irish government.
