What we know about Sweden's worst ever mass shooting
Episode description
We're releasing the podcast earlier than usual this week to bring you up to date information on this week's horrific shooting in Örebro that left eleven people dead.
We also look at why Sweden’s government wants to make the new citizenship rules retroactive and how applicants are reacting.
In the longer version for Membership+ subscribers we give you the lowdown on sportlov, the annual Swedish school break that sees families leave the cities en masse for the northern slopes and, finally, we dig into why the government is planning to give foreign experts bigger tax cuts.
Host Paul O’Mahony is joined this week by regular panelists Becky Waterton and Richard Orange.
