Cormac McQuinn and Pat Leahy join Hugh Linehan to discuss the fallout from a report on The Ditch news website that Meath West Fine Gael TD Damien English gave incorrect information on a planning application, allowing him to build a second house.

The news forced Deputy English to resign his post as a junior minister on Wednesday.

Inside Politics is a weekly podcast hosted by Hugh Linehan.
