Over half a million migrants applied for asylum within the European Union in the first half of this year. That's up nearly 30 percent compared to the year before, the highest for that time period since the migrant crisis of 2014 to 2016. The little Italian island of Lampedusa is on the front lines. It has a population of 6,000. Between September 12 and 13, 7,000 migrants arrived. Earthquakes, floods and coups will make the problem far worse. Europe is heading for a migrant crisis worse than the one that shook European politics in 2015. On today's show, guest host Richard Palmer examines how this new crisis threatens to overturn European democracy and the rule of law.
