The Mick Clifford Podcast: The Northern Bank robbery — The heist and how they got away with it
The robbery of the Northern Bank in Belfast in December 2004 was both a criminal act and, most observers believe, a political act as it was carried out by the Provisional IRA at a time when Sinn Féin was negotiating on the basis that violent and criminal acts by the Provos were at an end. Acclaimed writer Glenn Patterson was in the city centre on the night it happened. His latest book The Northern Bank Job: The Heist and How They Got Away with It is both a cracking read and a historical document of note. Glenn is this week's guest on the podcast.
