The Brexit Murder?

The Corrections

Available for over a year

The Corrections re-visits four news stories which left the public with an incomplete picture of what really happened. In August 2016 Arkadiuz Joswik - known to his friends as Arek - was attacked and killed in a shopping precinct in Harlow where he’d stopped for a late night snack. Arek was Polish and the idea took hold that he had been killed by racists who were somehow empowered by the Brexit referendum earlier that summer. But was this really an anti-immigrant hate crime? Produced and presented by Jo Fidgen and Chloe Hadjimatheou
