拢70 million slashed from our health service

拢70 million slashed from our health service. Are you worried? Are you angry?

拢70 million of planned cuts to the health service; members of the public being asked where they would wield the axe; no Assembly; no Executive; no health minister. The word 'crisis' is overused, but if this isn't a crisis in our health service, what is? Doctors say we need a minister, now. So what are our politicians going to do about it? Tara asks Sinn Fein's John O'Dowd, SDLP's Mark H Durkan, Alliance's Stephen Farry, UUP's Roy Beggs and we took your calls.

Also on the programme, The company that owns the troubled Ashbrooke care home in Enniskillen has told the Nolan Show that it's going to appeal the court order to close the home. Ashbrooke, owned by Runwood 成人快手s, lost its licence to operate after a snap inspection by the RQIA revealed serious concerns for the health of elderly residents. Tara spoke to their group operations director Gavin O'Hare Connolly in his first interview.

Plus, Mayweather v McGregor - fight of the century or a farce on an epic scale? Tara gets the views of mixed martial arts coach Jonny Burrows and former IBF flyweight world champion boxer Dave 'Boy' McAuley.

And, Sheree Atcheson talks to Tara about adoption and her quest to find her birth mother in Sri Lanka.
