A concert in support of Catherine Connolly’s campaign brought top musical artists and thousands of young people together in Dublin’s Vicar Street on Monday night.

The event also brought together Sinn Féin’s Mary Lou McDonald, the Social Democrats’ Holly Cairns, Paul Murphy and Ruth Coppinger of People Before Profit-Solidarity, Green leader Roderic O’Gorman and Labour leader Ivana Bacik, who were photographed hand-in-hand on stage. Could the left’s new-found unity be an image of the political future?

On today’s Election Daily podcast Harry McGee and Jack Horgan-Jones join Hugh Linehan to talk about how Connolly’s campaign united the left.

The panel also look at the ongoing fallout from ‘the video’ and ahead to tonight’s RTÉ debate.
