Host Pat Leahy and political correspondents Jack Horgan-Jones and Harry McGee discuss the week in politics:


The critical shortage of accommodation for people arriving in Ireland to apply for International Protection was everywhere in the news this week, as was the row between the UK and Ireland over returning migrants. The Government desperately needs to build a system that can process asylum seekers quickly and efficiently, and provide accommodation in the meantime.


The outcome of local elections in the UK points to a potentially catastrophic general election for the Tories


In Scotland, the SNP's diminished status means independence seems further away than any point since before the 2015 referendum


They also pick their favourite Irish Times articles of the week.
