🎙 New podcast episode

We talk to Vincent Doherty about his political development and background in Derry; joining the Official Republican movement in 1972; involvement with the International Marxist Group (IMG) and Troops Out Movement in England; his return to Ireland and work with People's Democracy (PD) and the National H-Block/Armagh Committee; joining Sinn Féin, and the influence of PD on that organisation; and his subsequent independent activism since and perspective on the contemporary left in Ireland.
