like many cities in sweden, eskilstuna has an impressive recycling record.ste many years ago. but almost everyone who lives here follows a strict recycling policy at home. people are expected to sort their household waste into seven separate categories, including food, textiles, cartons and metal. this is time—consuming and requires a bit of space in the kitchen. but what really makes this system a standout is the bright colour code. households are given a supply of rainbow coloured bags to collect waste. they also get recycled as part of the process. the reason for this becomes clear at the city's recycling plant. the bags arrive alljumbled up because they are collected all together once a fortnight from outside people's houses. but thanks to those bright colours, the bags can be selected and separated efficiently — though even these scanners can make some mistakes. the food waste in green bags is processed on site into slurry to make biogas, to power the city's buses. one of the benefits of this method of recycling is that there is less cross contamination

reached an impasse so that the swedish laura has desisted from continuing now i have no doubt that in sweden there will be a big debate as to whether that disses sitting from continuing means that it's simply gone into a balance and now can be revived or whether having desisted then that's an end of the matter that's a matter of a swedish law and i'm sure will be hotly debated and contested in swedish courts ok time to bring in clear finkelstein in philadelphia for the u.s. perspective i like what we're doing here actually which is laying out all the facts without getting into the subject of stuff just yet clear let's talk about the indictment which the u.s. has got and i note that it is very carefully written he has not been charged with publishing government secrets which would be usually the big headline he has been charged with quote committing unlawful computer intrusion explain this one to us both that's correct so it's not quite espionage and it's not house of lee just receiving stolen government documents and classified documents and disseminating them which would be a problem if you

the home secretary didn't mention sweden and the fact that the proceedings in sweden which led to the warrants being issued originally is the case. swedish proceedings will be continuing. is there any competitive aspect between the swedish prosecution and the united states prosecution? how will that be resolved? i can tell the honorable gentleman that the original extradition request was a swedish extradition request. but then at a later date, the swedish authorities troth -- chose driven throttle -- chose to withdraw. should there be for any individual more than one of tradition request, that will be dealt in the usual way by the courts. speaker understands the extradition to the u.s. is in relation to the half-million leaked documents in the chelsea manning case. would you agree is more serious and disturbing cases against julian assange for his role in the kremlin's 2016 attempt to interfere and manipulate the u.s. presidential election? wikileaks was used by russian military intelligence as the primary vehicle to disseminate the stolen documents stolen from the democratic party. o

and might sweden come back into all this and say, actually, we want him extradited to sweden to faceome of the charges that we originally levelled against him over i think some of them have expired, but could that potentially cause the uk government a problem? it could do, i think originally there were four allegations, three of them ran out of time but there is one remaining until mid—2020. so, it's conceivable that the swedish prosecuting authority could make a fresh european arrest warrant. i suppose that would depend on what they think the position is in swedish law. if that happens, well, then there would be competing extradition requests and that could mean a role for the home secretary in deciding which should have priority. really interesting to hear your thoughts on this, thanks so much for coming in. now, it's one of the world's most famous works of art and today, a rare lithograph of edward monk's goes on display at the british museum. it is part of the largest uk exhibition of the norwegian artist's work, which opens to the public today. david sillito has been along. it's
