Summary

The group discusses the victim of a stabbing, a Scottish man named Steve or Stephen, and the attacker, a Sudanese refugee. They describe graphic details from a video: the attacker stabs the victim in the eyes and neck before neighbours intervene with a stick. Behnam says the aftermath is beginning, with race riots and immigrants' houses being set on fire. This leads to a detailed explanation of the Northern Ireland Troubles: the Catholic/Protestant divide, the IRA, British army patrols, IRA bombs, the 1997 peace agreement, and the sensitive Irish border after Brexit. They also share personal memories, including armed police at a primary school and an IRA bomb in Manchester.
