I have done two events over the last 24 hours here in Manchester – one a ‘cafe politique’ organised by IPPR North which basically means gathering in the best cafe in town and talking about a better world, the second an innovation camp with a great array of people from across sectors and across the city.
The ideas for new coops included a herb garden (‘herb and farming’ if you get the pun) on a disused viaduct, a travelling media resource bus and a pledgebank model for community owned windfarms.
Paul was doing the illustrations. I am the one in the middle with the hair – nice one.

Great to see you’ve grown some hair on top since the weekend, Ed. What brand of snake oil do you use? I could do with a bottle meself.
