Trinity students block Book of Kells exhibit - why?

Students blockaded the entrance to the Book of Kells exhibition in Trinity College Dublin yesterday in protest against a proposal to increase some programme costs. Trinity College Dublin Students’ Union warned that students will take actions that are 'seriously damaging to the reputation and finances of the university' if the increases go ahead. László Molnárfi, President of Trinity College Dublin Students’ Union, joins Andrea to discuss what the protest is about. She is also joined by listeners to hear their takes. Image: Trinity News
