Violence in the North and Dublin's illegal clamp cutters
Published 3 months, 1 week ago
Description
On today's Behind the Story, Paul and Fran examine the racist violence that erupted in Northern Ireland following a stabbing incident, exploring the scapegoating of migrants and economic insecurity in fuelling unrest, and how social media can amplify tensions and spread misinformation.
They also investigate why nearly one-in-ten Dublin City Council wheel clamps are being illegally removed or destroyed - and whether motorists are taking enforcement into their own hands.
