Thinking ahead

Jim Elve posts on the Next Great Prime Minister contest.

This does appear to be an upgrade on the former As Prime Minister essay contest, since we should all be aware that true potential leaders don't stoop to writing their own policy ideas. I just wonder whether there will be a parallel Next Great Prime Ministerial Advisor contest for whoever most helps out the winner.

While it's obviously going to have its circus-like elements, good on Magna for getting a start on evaluating a future generation of politicians. In a couple of decades, if the planning goes well enough, maybe we'll be able to avoid speculation about people like these becoming PM.
