The Swedish diplomat that was arrested last week on suspicion of spying is dead. Questions are asked about the manner of his arrest and possible links to the resignation of the national security advisor.

And police have presented their investigation into the Örebro mass shooting. Their conclusion: his motive was to end his own life at the Risbergska school, due to an ”increasing frustration and hopelessness” about his life.

Also, we speak to the makers of a new documentary series about Sweden during the Second World War — why is the time right to tell the story now?

Plus from Basel, a report looking ahead to tomorrow's Eurovision Song Contest.

This week, we begin with the shocking triple murder in central Uppsala, where three young men were shot dead inside a barbershop. We bring you the latest updates.

We also look at the sudden resignation of Johan Pehrson, leader of the Liberal Party, and what it means for Sweden's political center. Political writers Annie Reutersköld and Torbjörn Nilsson weigh in on the party’s future—and the possibility of a merger with the Centre Party.

Then, we ask if Sweden could face a major blackout, like the one that hit Spain and Portugal this week. MSB's Jan-Olof Olsson explains how ready Sweden really is — and why having cash and a transistor radio might still matter.

Finally, we hear from Swedish Radio's Victor Jensen about Volvo Cars plan to cut SEK 18 billion in costs, a move that may lead to major layoffs in Gothenburg and beyond.

Anna Öhgren in Norrtälje first noticed something was wrong when a large number of lorries started passing by her house with truckloads of unsorted waste, offloading them onto the property down the road from her house. ”I don't bathe in the lake. I don't drink the tap water anymore,” she tells Radio Sweden.

It's been almost three months since the deadly shooting in Skärholmen in Stockholm's south west, where a father was killed in front of his 12-year-old son. We speak to the leaders of Blåuggla, a volunteer group that does night patrols in Skärholmen, to hear how the community's feeling.

And: 50 years ago, Sweden became the first country in the world to introduce paid parental leave for both mums and dads — and now even grandparents and family friends will be able to take time off work for caring duties. We hear about this change to the parental leave scheme.

Also: It's emerged that a fully-vaccinated child died after being infected with TBE last year, we speak to an expert on communicable diseases to find out more. And change is on the way for the Eurovision Song Contest following the controversies at this year's event in Malmö.

And a correction: In an earlier version of this podcast published on July 3rd we reported on a large increase in the number of young Swedes living with their parents, based on statistics from Eurostat. However the Swedish numbers from Statistics Sweden were incorrect, the agency now says, and have now been withdrawn. Therefore we can't say how the number of young people in Sweden living with their parents has changed, and we have removed the story from this podcast. The correction was made on July 11th 2024.
