Glad to see that public order thuggery in Dublin Central is finally getting the news coverage it deserves.

Some of us have been banging on about it for years.

Far too many people have their head in the sand about it. 2/5)

When I moved back to Dublin in 2014, I seen more violence in the city centre in 48 hours than I did in 4 years living in 3 different European countries.

When you get used to public order safety, it's debilitating to move back to a city where thuggery and violence is rife.
