Ryan Tubridy’s ‘excursion’ to Auschwitz


On his morning show on RTE Radio 1 today Ryan Tubridy spoke about his ‘excursion’ to Auschwitz.

In talking about his 48-hour ‘excursion’ he advised listeners to bring the Polish currency Zløty with them. He told us he flew to Cracow and his Ryanair flight departed and landed on time.

Just recently a survivor of the death camp spoke of how tourism can trivialise the evil of what the Germans did.

Ryan Tubridy’s account of his ‘excursion’ did that.
