Ed Balls and George Osborne recall stars who have previously made the switch – does anybody ever really pull it off? And, our hosts have got Paris 2024 fever as they look back on their favourite Olympic moments from London 2012. As athletes prepare to compete on the world stage, what are the best lessons or policies the UK has learnt from overseas?  Plus, will inflation go down? And how should we pick our party leaders?
