NORTHERN PLANNER

British thinktank Demos is paid to come up with new ideas, some slightly ridiculous, some brilliant. That’s the nature of ideas, you need to have lots for some to be amazing. Here are three I like.

1. Libraries in airports
2. Hairdressers as advisors to local councils (who talks to more people about live issues?).
3. Politicians should write poetry – sounds crazy at first, but not only would it relieve the colossal pressure, it might make them stop and reflect more.
