Marching Season Tension in Derry

Warfare for weirdos: patreon.com/popularfront Every year in Northern Ireland, both the Irish Republicans and the British Unionists build huge bonfires to celebrate their culture. Each side burns the other’s flag. We went to the Bogside in #Derry to talk with a group of young lads calling themselves the Bogside Republican Youth. They spent all summer building this year’s bonfire, which caused controversy due to its links to the IRA and the recent violence in the area. The biggest problem of the Bogside is not militancy though, it’s the poverty and complete lack of leadership. Derry has the highest rate of unemployment in Northern Ireland, more than twice the average. The city is also one of the most unemployed in the UK as a whole. The young lads of the Bogside have nothing to do and nowhere to go. We filmed with them over two days as they set the bonfire alight. - Popular Front is an entirely independent platform for conflict journalism.
