In this episode of the Economist Intelligence podcast, three key topics are explored: Donald Trump's cabinet appointments after the election, the dependence of European agriculture on migrant workers amid rising anti-immigration sentiments, and the trend of increasingly lengthy place names in India. Trump's selections appear more organized than during his first term, yet they include a mix of qualified candidates and some controversial figures, especially in the Department of Defense. Meanwhile, European farmers rely heavily on migrant labor, creating a clash between those who support immigration and governments that oppose it. Lastly, the podcast critiques the trend of overly long place names in India, arguing that it reflects inefficiency and a lack of seriousness in governance.
