Does anyone fancy their hand at being PM? Call me maverick, but I think next time we should take a break from the norm and have one who isn't a sociopath that exploits the role as a get-rich(er)-quicker scheme while the rest of the world burns.

@Richard_Littler My father felt that democracy had a flaw - that the people who /wanted/ to run the country had already demonstrated thereby their complete unsuitability to do so.

His idea was to find succesful business people (or academics) and /sentance/ them to government, a bit like jury duty. The better at it they were, the sooner they got back to what they actually wanted to do.

@BobHarvey @Richard_Littler Douglas Adan's said it best: "Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job."
