In an increasingly connected world, some are pushing back against being always on call. Joshua Fields Millburn co-founded The Minimalists, a collective which tries to help people de-clutter their technologically messy lives, and tells us how he managed to switch off. Dr Emma Russell is a senior lecturer in management at the University of Sussex Business School, and discusses France's so-called "right to disconnect" law. And we meet some London office workers who struggle to switch off from work email outside office hours. Also in the programme, Christine Lagarde has chaired her first monetary policy meeting of the European Central Bank. 大象传媒 economics correspondent Andrew Walker brings us the details. Plus we ask whether historic neighbourhoods should be protected from redevelopment when new homes are needed.
