On today’s Afternoon Empire with Ian Collins, we start with Orla Minihane, who discusses the local and national impact of migration, from the plans to house hundreds of small-boat arrivals at a nearby Army Camp to the council’s CCTV upgrades and the wider fallout from a secret Afghan asylum scheme. 

Then Rear Admiral Chris Parry joins the conversation to unpack the international tensions sparked by Donald Trump’s renewed talk of Greenland, exploring the implications for NATO, Denmark, and global security. 

Finally, Mike Neville takes us through a series of stories at the intersection of law, policing, and justice from bereaved Manchester Arena families demanding accountability from MI5, to extremism and travel bans, controversial policing decisions in football, and the government’s stance on terrorism charge limits. It’s a gripping episode covering migration, geopolitics, and the challenges facing law and order today.
