Net migration into the UK was a record 745,000 last year, figures show - far higher than originally thought. Increasing numbers of international students are among the new arrivals. We hear from one of them and a university vice chancellor who says students shouldn't count towards the net migration figures. Also on the programme: there's ongoing violence on the streets of Dublin after five are hurt in a knife attack, and we'll look at how the radical right has influenced mainstream politics in Europe.
