About this episode
With ex-mayor Andy Burnham now officially Labour's main man, and London mayor Sadiq Khan heading to the Lords and then who knows where, are we seeing the rise of a new mayoral political class that uses devolution to bypass the Westminster greasy pole?
Naomi and Kenny look at the pros and cons of a mayoral stop on the political line, and have a gander at Burnham's big speech too.
And, with people and animals all struggling in the heat, what of our food crops? New figures show how climate change could hurt crop yield in many parts of the country ... and benefit farmers elsewhere.
Plus, what simple gadget that solves an infuriating problem do you wish had been invented? We'll be collecting the patents for the best ideas...
