“It’s turned into a kip” – Prime Time special tonight shows how Dublin’s O’Connell street has turned into a no-go-area




It’s without question one of the nicest streets in the world, never mind Ireland or even Europe.

Dublin’s O’Connell Street has beautiful architecture, a lovely long vista and nice shop fronts.

However, as of late, it’s become what has been described as a “no-go-area” where violence, thuggery and general anti-social behaviour such as fist fighting and drinking takes place on a daily basis.

Tourists are now advised by many people to steer clear of the area for fear of being harassed or attacked.

RTE’s Prime Time will air a documentary about it tonight at 9:30pm to show just how truly bad the street has gotten.
