Description

Broadcaster Paddy O’Gorman hears from the young Irish who left for London as Ireland was deep in recession. Making home in Britain wasn’t easy as accommodation, jobs & social welfare were difficult to secure. London brought hope to many but also the grim reality of those working in uncertain employment from building sites to Soho sex clubs (1984)
