Episode 859: Could the IRA wing in Portlaoise Prison finally close?

Description

2025 looks likely to be the year that the IRA wing in Portlaoise high-security prison is closed for good marking the end of an era and leaving a handful of dissident prisoners with no more privileges or empty cells to call their own.


Nicola speaks with Niall Donald about Portlaoise, the army withdrawal, and the 70 empty beds that have made E wing a place of ghosts.
