We ask if anything could have been done to prevent the destruction wrought by the storm. And China's leadership is deciding on the economic policy for the next decade. We also look at how Ireland is holding up after five years of austerity. Also in the programme: our regular commentator Lucy Kellaway tells us what made Ryanair's boss decide to be a nice guy.
