Summary
It's Friday, so Ed Vaizey is back to unpack the politics of the day with Trevor Phillips and Miranda Green.
Could Labour plug the financial black hole with the return of PFI, why is there still no love lost between Alex Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon, and what did people make of Trevor's suggestion that Keir Starmer should send for Michael Gove? And why hasn't Miranda been given an honour?
