Pat Leahy and Jennifer Bray join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:

Pat is in Brussels where the EU has agreed on a €50 billion package for Ukraine. He reports on how Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán was finally cajoled into supporting the move.

Ahead of the March referendums on care and the family, Jennifer has been looking at who’s who in the Yes and No campaigns.

And the panel discuss a significant shift in Government’s tone on immigration which became apparent this week.
