Washington's choice for the new head of the World Bank has been announced: David Malpass. He's a man who isn't very keen on the World Bank - we ask if he will he get the job. And 鈥渁 special place in hell鈥 awaits Brexit voters, says Donald Tusk, president of the European Council.

Plus, having a hobby that makes you money is often called a 鈥榮ide hustle鈥 鈥 and those in Sweden are getting government funding to turn theirs in to a business, as the 成人快手鈥檚 Maddy Savage reports from Stockholm.
