Description:

Right-wing historian Karol Nawrocki has narrowly won Poland's presidential election, in what is a blow to the governing centrist coalition.

Mr Nawrocki - who is backed by the main opposition Law and Justice party - will wield a powerful veto over policy - so what does it mean for the pro-EU government led by former European Council president Donald Tusk?

Also in the programme: What exactly caused the "mass casualty" event at an aid station in Gaza?; and positive news on colon cancer recovery, as research shows survival rates are boosted by a third - just by regular exercise.
