In this week's episode we talk about why Sweden is paying Somalia to accept citizens deported from Sweden and whether the political scandal is helping or hurting the government.

We also explain why a lot of Swedes will be eating goose blood soup to celebrate St Martin’s Day.

For Membership+ subscribers we discuss why a growing number of Swedish towns are refusing to help the government with its plan to encourage more people who came to Sweden as refugees to leave the country.

Finally, we’ lift the lid on some of the biggest taboos in Swedish politics.
