Terrorists likely to be boosted by Brexit, says report

Brexit risks strengthening dissident republican groups and boosting organised crime, according to the first survey of links between terrorism and crime in the UK and Ireland.

The report highlights major discrepancies in Garda estimates on the number of organised crime groups in the country ranging from 25 to 620.

The report is titled The Crime-Terror Nexus in the United Kingdom and Ireland. It calls for greater information sharing and collaboration between security agencies in Ireland, the North, and Britain.
