The former Co-Directors of Together for Yes have been included on the ‘TIME 100’ list.

This is TIME Magazine’s annual list of the 100 most influential people in the world.

Grainne Griffin, a founding member of the Abortion Rights Campaign; Orla O’Connor, Co-Director of Together for Yes and Director of the National Women’s Council of Ireland; and Ailbhe Smyth, Convenor of the Coalition to Repeal the Eighth Amendment appear on the list in recognition of their work leading the ‘Together for Yes’ campaign last year.

Smyth joined Ivan on the show to give her reaction to being recognised in this way.
