Kids give Design Council a creative minds lesson

Teenagers think balloon-flop Sir Richard Branson has better ideas than chainsaw-wielding Eminem and exploits those ideas more effectively than Sir Alex “the game’s not over until I say so” Ferguson, according to research by the Design Council for the launch of Design in Education Week.

And Tony “I’m in charge here” Blair is deemed most in need of good ideas, with two out of three youngsters believing he requires daily doses of fresh inspiration.

What about William “bogus asylum seekers” Hague?

We think he needs daily doses of something, but we are not convinced that fresh inspiration will do the trick.
