News and conversation about the big stories of the week with Paddy O'Connell.

On the programme this week, we looked at the international response to the disaster in Haiti. Dr Agostino Miozzo, who led the relief operation after last year's earthquake in L'Aquila in Italy, said that clear strategies for how to react such events should be pre-planned and ready to put into operation. The ballot for tickets to see Tony Blair at the Iraq Inquiry is about to take place... Paddy went to talk to people who've applied and who've been watching the inquiry. Are they the Tricoteuses de nos jours? We delved further into the BBC's archives and Norman Smith lamented the apparent demise of great political oratory.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
