As a huge portion of the world's population is existing under lockdown conditions, many personal freedoms have been sacrificed for public health. But there is increasing concern in various countries about the impact of lockdown culture on civil liberties. This week, Andrea speaks with Liam Herrick, the executive director of the ICCL about Ireland's new rules, and Una talks to a leading anti-corruption campaigner in Hungary about how covid-19 is intersecting with Viktor Orbán's desire for power and control. Also the Corona Correction and urban wildlife, things to do virtually this week in Ireland (or anywhere), and the impact of covid-news-overload.
