Radio 43 The rise in anti-migrant vigilantism

The far right have long framed hate as “protecting the community”. The spate of anti-migrant protests that commenced this summer is no exception, with organisers exploiting local safety concerns through racist scapegoating. Chants of “Save our kids” mingle with “Tell the nation, remigration” and “Send them home”. In this episode of Radio 43, we look at four of these groups: The East Belfast Nightwatch First Division, Safeguard Force, Aberdeen Against Illegal Migration and The Shield.
