    UK intelligence services have warned of a potential influx of radical migrants from Ireland due to plans by the New Irish Republican Army (New IRA) to drive out illegal immigrants through a campaign of violence. The group, which still seeks a united Ireland, is reportedly exploiting growing anti-migrant sentiment on both sides of the border. Security sources fear that competing factions within dissident republicanism may escalate tensions, potentially reigniting political violence.
