Nepalese politics comes to terms with the resignation of Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli; we look at a new report on foreign fighters in Syria and listen to the music from Calais 'jungle'.

Nepal's Prime Minister — KP Sharma Oli — stepped down this week just hours before he was due to face a vote of no confidence — what next for Nepal, and does it signal a tightening grip from neighbouring India?  We’re joined by the Editor of Republica, Subhash Ghimire.

A new report from the think-tank New America has helped to shed light on the diversity of foreign fighters in Syria. We speak to Phil Girsky in Canada, a specialist in radicalisation and “home-grown” Al Quaeda.

We also talk with Jay Burgess, musician involved in the Calais Sessions, an album of songs recorded in the Calais refugee and migrant camp known as the 'jungle'.
