Fast forward to September 2024. Suppose the polls haven't shifted; do you call an election for October, knowing you're set fair for a one way ticket to Obscurityville, CA? Or do you hang on, just in case something turns up?
Or worse than that- suppose the polls have started to shift in your favour?

My guess would be May next year. It will be cheaper, and there's no obvious good news that might help the party do better if they delay. About the only really seismic possible change would be a Russian collapse, and that's not really in their power.

He could do worse than setting up some sort of trading algorithm on this. A sell trigger once Tories rise above 30% for 5 polls in a row. Or once the gap to Labour hits 10%. With a backstop of next October.
Netanyahu says war will continue after hostages released
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that Israel will continue its war against Hamas "until we achieve all our goals".
In a video statement recorded before the cabinet met to discuss a possible hostage deal, he said "nonsense" was being spoken to the effect that the war would be stopped once the hostages were released.
Netanyahu described the hostages' return as a "sacred and top goal".
"In war there are phases and in returning the hostages there are phases but we will not stop until we have total victory, until we return all of them," he said. "That’s the holy duty of all of us."
The elimination of Hamas was also a goal, he said, "and that there won't be anything in Gaza that threatens Israel again".

It is argued it would look desperate, which it surely will, but going in Autumn 2024 really doesn't look any less desperate, so if they feel the need to wait until the Autumn then things are already going badly enough that it doesn't really matter.

I can't believe that I only recently have. He's now a hero of mine
He's the son of one of the founders of Hamas. He spent his formative years throwing stones at Israeli settlers. He was arrested many times by Israel as a young Hamas fighter and became so disgusted by the savagery of his fellow Hamas members in incarceration that he decided to work for the Jews
He spent a decade inside - near the top - of Hamas as an Israeli spy. He foiled numerous Hamas attacks and helped Israel arrest many Hamas fighters and leaders, including his father
He's now a Christian (converted by a Brit) living in the USA. He had to fight to get residency; they tried to deport him to Gaza for being a Hamas terrorist
He seems to support Israel's "genocide" of his people

The more interesting point is that the arguments Raz Segal puts forward for why what Israel is doing in Gaza is genocide (and, yes, I have read what he's written) apply equally to what Hamas has done and intends doing. So if, Owen Jones (and others) accepts Segal's arguments then he has to say that both Israel and Hamas are committing genocide.Or neither of them are. But that is not his position. Jones is of course too stupid to understand what he so readily accepts because it accords with his preconceived opinion.
FPT - the minimum wage is no gold mine but it's also not a free lunch.
Set it too high and there will be fewer jobs all round, and more in the black economy.
But clearly with more than a million vacancies, a very large proportion of those being in the very sectors that are most likely to be minimum wage such as hospitality, that point is still quite some way off.
Indeed one could claim that by forcing the hospitality industry to improve wages they are helping them to make the sector more attractive to prospective employees.

your obsession with Gary Lineker is quite disturbing
It was an incredibly stupid thing to tweet given the contentiousness of the term 'genocide' - for both current and historical reasons (It's a term many staunch critics of Israel would shy away from). And the fact that overheated rhetoric in any direction on Israel-Palestine is liable to have awful consequences here.
In the case of making grave accusations of Israel being irredeemably evil as opposed to we government being wrong, them being used to justify violence or intimidation towards British Jews (or politicians) who understandably take a less black and white view of the conflict. Obviously the same applies to those on the right who use Hamas' actions to demonise any support for Palestinians, as opposed to criticising it when it crosses the line.
Not the smartest thing to do when you've just agreed to a new set of BBC regulations, inspired by you talking about '1930s Germany', that promised high profile presenters would tone down interventions on politically contentious issues.

Netanyahu says war will continue after hostages released
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that Israel will continue its war against Hamas "until we achieve all our goals".
In a video statement recorded before the cabinet met to discuss a possible hostage deal, he said "nonsense" was being spoken to the effect that the war would be stopped once the hostages were released.

Traditionally it was supposed to be the IDF and Mossad but we live in a new paradigm.
How many Palestinian civilians do you think have been..er..collaterally damaged?
I’ve no idea. But I don’t see any reason to give any credence to what Hamas says.
The US State Department uses their data in their internal memos, also the US State Department Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs told a Congressional hearing on 9 November that the death toll was "very high, frankly, and it could be that they're even higher than are being cited."
The US state department may just be saying ‘Hamas reports x deaths’. That is not the same as agreeing with the number. I wouldn’t trust Hamas if they said the sky was blue.
The sky actually being blue means presumably you would reject the truth because it was being uttered by Hamas.

Leicester defender Harry Souttar scored the only goal as Australia beat Palestine in front of thousands of fans in a World Cup qualifier in Kuwait.
The match was Palestine's second since the start of the Israel-Gaza conflict.

[Aussie] Coach Graham Arnold said preparations had been "quite stressful" as the game had [to be] moved from the West Bank to Kuwait.
Palestine were without defender Ibrahim Abuimeir, Ahmed Kullab and Khaled Al-Nabris, with all three stuck in Gaza.
Ranked 96th in the world, they are currently third in their World Cup qualifying group, while Australia are top after successive wins.

The evidence suggests otherwise.
I suspect the question is, after 7th October can the Israeli Government justify the wholesale slaughter of Gazan civilians in order to remove Hamas from the face of the earth? If you agree that the wholesale slaughter of Gazan civilians in order to remove Hamas from the face of the earth is legitimate, fair enough. Claiming " I do not believe IDF is deliberately killing Gazans" is either naive or disingenuous.

All deaths for the past 7 weeks can be laid at the door of Hamas. Israelis, Palestinians, members of Hamas, members of the IDF.
They knew what they were provoking. They have built a defence network that depends on the IDF not attacking military facilities under mosques, schools, universities, hospitals. No-one on either side expected them to hold off.

But national leaders need to rise above - understandable - emotion and focus on facts. That’s their job.
Hamas raped, tortured and murdered over a thousand innocent Israelis (and others). The IDF is fighting a war. I believe they are trying to minimise civilian casualties within the limits of their battlefield instructions. Other armies might sacrifice operational effectiveness to reduce the number of casualties. I am sure the Russians would not be as careful.

Other people's lives seems cheap to a certain type of right wing ideologue, hence Johnson's "let the bodies pile high" and Sunak's similar statement quoted by Vallance yesterday.
Likewise some of the generally rightward leaning armchair Generals on here, suggesting that collateral casualties (irrespective of number) are an acceptable feature of conflict, and justifying it by a "well their boys did it to our team on October 7th". It is the heartless language of Hamas. Aren't we, purporting to be from a civilized nation, better than that? I don't know, pick a side.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that Israel will continue its war against Hamas "until we achieve all our goals".
In a video statement recorded before the cabinet met to discuss a possible hostage deal, he said "nonsense" was being spoken to the effect that the war would be stopped once the hostages were released.
Netanyahu described the hostages' return as a "sacred and top goal".
"In war there are phases and in returning the hostages there are phases but we will not stop until we have total victory, until we return all of them," he said. "That’s the holy duty of all of us."
The elimination of Hamas was also a goal, he said, "and that there won't be anything in Gaza that threatens Israel again".
Test:
You continue to equate the murder of innocent men, women and children with unfortunate innocent casualties of war.
You are despicable
Excel's telling me that 91% of the victims of this war are Gazans.
It is not a war it is a slaughter.
Typically, under such circumstances, the side that's losing surrenders. You don't seem very keen on that, for some reason.

I'm not sure those killed or their relatives would recognise your subtle distinction
But national leaders need to rise above - understandable - emotion and focus on facts. That’s their job.
Hamas raped, tortured and murdered over a thousand innocent Israelis (and others). The IDF is fighting a war. I believe they are trying to minimise civilian casualties within the limits of their battlefield instructions. Other armies might sacrifice operational effectiveness to reduce the number of casualties. I am sure the Russians would not be as careful.
Not sure the IDF would want to be compared with Russia . We should expect better from Israel and shouldn’t allow them to avoid questions because they might not be as bad as others . No one looking at the devastation can say that they were all really Hamas targets . Northern Gaza is close to being uninhabitable, all infrastructure is gone , its a wasteland . It’s like a nuclear bomb went off .

Fast forward to September 2024. Suppose the polls haven't shifted; do you call an election for October, knowing you're set fair for a one way ticket to Obscurityville, CA? Or do you hang on, just in case something turns up?
Or worse than that- suppose the polls have started to shift in your favour?

Is this really a problem that needs fixing? Its a huge draw for tourists.
But, I have been wrong many times before.
Gary Lineker has endorsed a video by journalist Owen Jones in which an academic accuses Israel of “genocide” and dismisses comparisons between Hamas and the Nazis.
The Match of the Day presenter shared a tweet by Mr Jones, a columnist with the Guardian, of his interview with Raz Segal, an Israeli-American historian, and he added the caption: “Worth 13 minutes of anyone’s time.”

The whole industry looks like nesting sets of ponzi schemes overlayed with hyperbolic shysters taking advantage of the people who really do believe in the future of decentralised finance.
I think much depends on the locals in May; if they’re bad, then January it is.
People did also say people wouldn't want to campaign or turnout in December, yet 2019 went just fine.
How many Palestinian civilians do you think have been..er..collaterally damaged?
On that same reasoning, 2025 remains a possibility - PM from 2022-2025 looks a lot better than PM 2022-2024.
Oh, crap. Better brace myself for an Xmas/New Year campaign in thirteen months time, then.
Set it too high and there will be fewer jobs all round, and more in the black economy.
I can't believe that I only recently have. He's now a hero of mine
He's the son of one of the founders of Hamas. He spent his formative years throwing stones at Israeli settlers. He was arrested many times by Israel as a young Hamas fighter and became so disgusted by the savagery of his fellow Hamas members in incarceration that he decided to work for the Jews
He spent a decade inside - near the top - of Hamas as an Israeli spy. He foiled numerous Hamas attacks and helped Israel arrest many Hamas fighters and leaders, including his father
He's now a Christian (converted by a Brit) living in the USA. He had to fight to get residency; they tried to deport him to Gaza for being a Hamas terrorist
He seems to support Israel's "genocide" of his people

Having said that, given his latest posts, maybe the two outcomes are not that far off.
Incidentally, it's not always representative of the individual - no matter how annoying they are online.

Hamas's cowardly murderers are as responsible for the deaths of the innocent Palestinians that they hide behind as they are for the deaths of the Israelis that they slaughtered
That's why human shields and military bases under hospitals, schools and mosques are war crimes
Hamas are the cause of all this.
Indeed one could claim that by forcing the hospitality industry to improve wages they are helping them to make the sector more attractive to prospective employees.
In the case of making grave accusations of Israel being irredeemably evil as opposed to we government being wrong, them being used to justify violence or intimidation towards British Jews (or politicians) who understandably take a less black and white view of the conflict. Obviously the same applies to those on the right who use Hamas' actions to demonise any support for Palestinians, as opposed to criticising it when it crosses the line.
Not the smartest thing to do when you've just agreed to a new set of BBC regulations, inspired by you talking about '1930s Germany', that promised high profile presenters would tone down interventions on politically contentious issues.
I have no doubt many, many Palestinians have died. You know why? Hamas.
Hamas chose this path for Gaza. They don’t care for Gazans. At all. They are scum.
You are despicable
The match was Palestine's second since the start of the Israel-Gaza conflict.
Australia's players are making a five-figure donation from their match fees to humanitarian efforts in Gaza, which will be matched by Football Australia.
[Aussie] Coach Graham Arnold said preparations had been "quite stressful" as the game had [to be] moved from the West Bank to Kuwait.
Palestine were without defender Ibrahim Abuimeir, Ahmed Kullab and Khaled Al-Nabris, with all three stuck in Gaza.
Ranked 96th in the world, they are currently third in their World Cup qualifying group, while Australia are top after successive wins.

Doesn't look like the Red Wall liked the reshuffle.
I suspect the question is, after 7th October can the Israeli Government justify the wholesale slaughter of Gazan civilians in order to remove Hamas from the face of the earth? If you agree that the wholesale slaughter of Gazan civilians in order to remove Hamas from the face of the earth is legitimate, fair enough. Claiming " I do not believe IDF is deliberately killing Gazans" is either naive or disingenuous.
It is the Tory majority, and clearly toast, burnt toast.
I can't see these MPs being keen on an early election.
All deaths for the past 7 weeks can be laid at the door of Hamas. Israelis, Palestinians, members of Hamas, members of the IDF.
They knew what they were provoking. They have built a defence network that depends on the IDF not attacking military facilities under mosques, schools, universities, hospitals. No-one on either side expected them to hold off.
Without it, the UK would be in recession already.
Motive matters.
So it equates roughly to a Lab 45, Con 24 full poll.
Yes.
Hamas raped, tortured and murdered over a thousand innocent Israelis (and others). The IDF is fighting a war. I believe they are trying to minimise civilian casualties within the limits of their battlefield instructions. Other armies might sacrifice operational effectiveness to reduce the number of casualties. I am sure the Russians would not be as careful.
Likewise some of the generally rightward leaning armchair Generals on here, suggesting that collateral casualties (irrespective of number) are an acceptable feature of conflict, and justifying it by a "well their boys did it to our team on October 7th". It is the heartless language of Hamas. Aren't we, purporting to be from a civilized nation, better than that? I don't know, pick a side.
