I think that's what we're going to get, as opposed to the actual physical hundred euro.

Colm O'GormanGUEST
We, we, we invest all of this time, or rather polit- the political elements of the media invest all of this time in talking about political intrigue, and actually for most people, they've switched off from that.

Colm O'GormanGUEST
They're focused on, or they will focus on when the budget's announced, where does that leave them? They're focused on the struggles that they're having in their life.

Colm O'GormanGUEST
And what government should be much more focused on, and frankly, I also think the political media should be more focused on, are the big macro issues.

Colm O'GormanGUEST
Like, for instance, the government, there, there's, there's a, an interesting piece on page one of the Sunday Business Post, where they're talking about the general framing of the budget, and, and it's, it's back to the point you made earlier on about the minimum wage, or the commitment to move towards a living wage being deferred.

Okay, very, very briefly, I just want to touch on a story, a column that we covered on the station here, and I'm sure everybody at home listened to, and that was the failed execution of the death row inmate, um, Krista Pike, last week, and the debate that has reopened in America about the death penalty.
