Grattan and his Parliament

Surprise! While we continue to prepare Season 5, we’ve decided to make last month’s Halfpint episode freely available to all our listeners. In this edition, Tim builds on our recent Season 4 finale by delving deeper into the colonial Irish Parliament around the time of the Act of Union of 1801. If you haven’t heard that Season 4 finale yet, you can go back and listen to it here: Part 1: https://www.theirishpassport.com/podcast/destructive-unionism-part-1-the-history/ Part 2: https://www.theirishpassport.com/podcast/destructive-unionism-part-2-the-current-day/ We make Halfpint extra content as a thank you to our Patreon supporters, who keep the podcast running.
