Forecast Report: Anti-Migrant Unrest in Ireland
Citizens of Ireland are leading anti-migrant protests more frequently nationwide due to the steep increase in asylum applications over the past year. Many such protests have turned violent, with protestors setting fires and clashing with police. In the coming weeks, an increased security presence and travel disruptions near asylum sites due to unrest are likely. Although the government is working on a better approach to immigrant integration, it will take time to implement new policies.
