For the past couple of weeks, and even months in some cases, canvassers have been working hard on either side of next week's referendum on the Eighth Amendment, going door to door in a bid to persuade the electorate of their side of the argument. We sent our co-producer Jennifer Ryan out with groups on either side to meet some of those people who have been giving up their evenings and weekends to do so. Later on, Roisin Ingle will be talking to former Sydney Rose Brianna Parkins who you might remember caused a national gasp during the Rose of Tralee festival, when she used her platform to call for a referendum on a repeal of the Eighth amendment. She has a piece in The Irish Times today where she explains why she has taken leave of absence from her job as a journalist in Australia to campaign for Yes.
