In Tunisia, galloping inflation, the pressures of trans-Saharan migration, and an increasingly repressive government, are straining social cohesion.
There are similarities to the situation that led to the country's Jasmine Revolution in 2010, which in turn triggered the wider Arab Spring protests.

Mike Thompson reports from Tunis for Newsnight.
