British Prime Minister, David Cameron, has offered a reward to anyone who can invent something so hugely significant that it rescues the economy and sparks a new phase in the history of mankind.
Cameron said: “With no evident solution for our economic woes and the environment set to implode, I am offering £73 out of my own pocket to the enterprising individual who can spark a new age for mankind and put Britain back on top once again!”
“We’re looking for a new industrial revolution, making all previous technologies redundant and reclaiming the empire for Her Majesty.

The initative is being launched ahead of the upcoming meeting of G8 nations. Lord Rees, Astronomer Royal, will chair a committee overseeing the initiative and awarding the prize. He said: “The winner might use a ‘ray-beam’ to create worm-holes to new universes to open trade with alien nations. Or he might make us all super-intelligent by buggering with our brains. Or immortal by buggering with our … Anyway, we need it by next Monday.”
