The Future of Sustainable Farming in Tipperary - Tilage Farming The future of tillage farming is a balancing act between technological innovation, environmental sustainability, and economic volatility.

On this morning’s show... Today, we’re taking part in ‘One Day, Many Voices’ — giving a platform to different communities and experiences across Tipperary. “A Budget held together with Blue Tack will come unstuck and fail Ireland.” That’s the warning from Independent Ireland, and we’ll be putting that claim under the spotlight in just a few moments. Helen McGrath jumped out of a perfectly good aeroplane! We’ll find out why she decided to take the plunge — and what she was hoping to achieve.

Today’s One Day, Many Voices is about celebrating diversity, inclusion, and making sure that everybody gets the chance to have their voice heard. But of course, that’s not something that should happen just for one day. Right across Tipperary, there are people and groups doing great work all year round to make our communities more welcoming, more inclusive, and to make sure nobody feels left out. One of those groups is Clonmel Together, and joining me in studio now is their PRO, Dean Buckley.

Two years ago, our good friend of the show Michelle O’Shea challenged me to spend some time in a wheelchair and see for myself some of the everyday barriers wheelchair users face. So myself and Leanne headed off to the IWA in Tipperary Town, and believe me, it was an eye-opener. Things most of us take for granted — getting through a building or even using a cash machine — suddenly became a real challenge. Michelle spoke then about the barriers she faces every day and called on politicians to experience it for themselves and, more importantly, listen to wheelchair users.

Tipperary’s Indian community brings a huge amount of colour, culture and community spirit to the county. We see that at events like the Tipp Vinayaka Festival and Community Fair, but there’s so much more behind the celebrations — the traditions, customs and heritage. So today, as part of One Day, Many Voices, we’re finding out a little more about the Indian community here in Tipp. And joining me in studio is Kuldeep Joshi, Director Treasurer of the Federation of Indian Communities in Ireland, Vice Chair of the Ireland India Business Association and a board member of the Tipperary Public Participation Network.

Pat Mullaly from Cahir has been a familiar voice here on Tipp Today for many years.. You’ll usually hear Pat talking to us about everything from current affairs and technology to politics, and of course he’s a regular on our Friday Panel, where he’s never afraid to give his opinion!.. But what some listeners may not know is that, a few years ago, Pat underwent an amputation of his leg... It was a huge life change, but Pat has continued to join us, debate the issues and, thankfully, give us plenty of his views along the way... And Pat joins me in studio now...

“A Budget held together with Blue Tack will come unstuck and fail Ireland” — that’s according to Cllr Michael Sheehan, Independent Ireland’s Spokesman for Finance and Enterprise... In a statement this week, he said the ongoing back-and-forth between Government Ministers and the Government parties is undermining confidence among households, businesses and investors... And Michael Sheehan joins me on the line now...

On this morning’s show... “A Budget held together with Blue Tack will come unstuck and fail Ireland.” That’s the warning from Independent Ireland, and we’ll be putting that claim under the spotlight in just a few moments. Helen McGrath jumped out of a perfectly good aeroplane! We’ll find out why she decided to take the plunge — and what she was hoping to achieve. Today, we’re taking part in ‘One Day, Many Voices’ — giving a platform to different communities and experiences across Tipperary. We’ll be hearing from the disability community, the Traveler community, the Indian community and older people, among others. All of that, plenty of reaction, and much more coming up on Tipp Today.

Saturday from 10 am we go on a journey with Eamon as he meets with people across the Premier Country on Down Your Way.
