Liberals in crisis: Will Sweden soon have one less party in parliament?

In this week's episode we talk about strategies for coping with the long Swedish winter now that temperatures have taken a serious nosedive.

In politics, with several parties teetering on the brink of the parliamentary threshold, we examine what happens to their votes if they don’t quite make it.

For Membership+ subscribers, we discuss new figures from the Migration Agency confirming a major slowdown in citizenship and work permit approvals.

Finally, we look at what readers of The Local are telling us about items they miss from home and how they manage to get their hands on them in Sweden.

Host Paul O'Mahony is joined this week by regular panelists Becky Waterton and James Savage.
