A survivor of the massacre on Norway’s Utoeya island last July spoke in Tallaght Stadium in Dublin yesterday of how fresh the attacks still felt and how she thought every day of friends she lost.
Elin L’Estrange (24), whose father Ivan moved to Norway from Sutton, Dublin, almost three decades ago, was speaking to Irish secondary school students at the launch of the new programme of the anti-racism campaign Show Racism the Red Card.
Ms L’Estrange and her brother Erik survived by swimming into the sea after extremist Anders Behring Breivik started shooting on the island, where the Labour Youth Movement was holding its annual summer camp.
