With yet more shocking attacks on the streets of Dublin, Paul Healy and Ciaran Bradley discuss what can be done.

Paul speaks to a local shop owner about the atmosphere of violence and intimidation in Temple Bar, while the Lord Mayor of Dublin gives his take on why he feels safe in the city. Mannix Flynn also speaks to us.
