As anti-migrant sentiment sweeps across Europe, is the continent turning against Angela Merkel for her open-door policy, and is this the end of the Merkel project (1:40)? Meanwhile, Donald Trump announced his new mission – to establish a sixth branch of the US military, the Space Force. Is this such a bad idea (14:20)? And last, while it may be greedy and corrupt, should Fifa be celebrated for making the World Cup truly global (25:40)?

With Fredrik Erixon, Stefan Kornelius, Christopher Buckley, Jacqueline Klimas, Tim Wigmore, and Freddy Gray.

Presented by Lara Prendergast.
