You should use dict.items().
Here is a one liner solution for your problem:
[(k,v) for k,v in dict.items()]
and result:
[('Food', 'Fish&Chips'), ('2012', 'Olympics'), ('Capital', 'London')]
or you can do
l=[]
[l.extend([k,v]) for k,v in dict.items()]
for:
['Food', 'Fish&Chips', '2012', 'Olympics', 'Capital', 'London']
