Just looking through the entries the prediction of foxinsoxuk was impressive. Very well done. I will be contacting you about the prize which is one of the nicest, if expensive, political books that I’ve ever seen. It is totally comprehensive and beautifully presented. It contains a mine of information and really is a prize worth winning.

Wrong twice
But Arsenal will screw up even if Spurs do as well. It is in their nature.
LibDem winning here ....

lyon Maugham.
Today he recounted a conversation he’d had with one of the custodians of the library, where MPs go to source information for their debates and papers. It holds 350,000 items on history, politics and policy.
“Chatted to Labour-friendly House of Commons librarian over the weekend,” Maugham tweeted this morning, “who said requests from Labour MPs had gone down by about 90 per cent.”
“Listening to some Labour performances on the floor of the Commons,” his acquaintance added, was “awful — many shadow ministers [are] making no effort to get on top of their briefs”.

Congrats to foxinsoxuk! Prognosticator of prognosticators, at least in terms of mayoral elections...
A 'credible' 72nd for me!
What will make their mind up ?
Osborne on the new Peston show said that the treasury would be putting out advice, that leaving the EU , would put mortgages up in the short term and house prices would fall.
That made me laugh.
At least you had a shot, unlike muggins here.
Tidy yourself up you scruffy little git, get a shave and a scrub and don't lounge in your seat when asking a question. You are on the BBC National news after all.
Congrats to Dr Fox - impressive stuff!
Agree entirely on the need to tidy up.

Evidence of a split personality?
Congrats to Mr Foxinsox.
Oh, and good evening, all.
Well done Dr Fox.
1) The site is expanding all conversations so all nesting is viable making threads huge.
2) To correct edit function now only opens a very small window so difficult to see what you are editing( one line visible)
3) Once the selection of the position of the cursor in edit window is made you can't change it to somewhere else without cancelling and reentering edit mode
This started over the weekend on Chrome. Never been an issue up to this moment. It makes using the site very difficult and also to read and to use.
I use chrome as I cannot log in on any other engine. Not sure why only chrome allows the log in.
First the Prem title and now this.! My cup runneth over.

Those Leavers wanting to look at the NoJam of Feb 29th on Brexit for my prediction may well want to be sitting down with a large brandy for medicinal purposes.
Lots of sharing of tales of kids in tears, not being able to finish, etc etc etc. Putting aside the rights and wrongs of making standards more rigorous, doesn't go down well when their precious little ones are upset.
Could something be done about this per chance oh mighty and most exalted ones of the OGH dynasty?
Ta in advance.....
one minute you're telling us alcohol is bad for us next minute it's sink a bottle for your health :-)
As an outsider it was a remarkable sight, most impressive for seeing the incumbent President sitting in a plastic chair at his local elementary school patiently waiting for over an hour for his turn to vote it seems the when people here to go vote pretty much everyone is a plain citizen. In the busy areas people waited for 4 or 5 hours in temperatures well into the 40s for their turn to vote, and seems to cope with remarkable good humour with the inevitable breakdowns in voting machines.
How do you handle 40+ million voters selecting 30 or more candidates off several different lists, open schools all over the country and have voters sitting in the classrooms with their folder of voting slips poring over the options, and then eventually feeding them into an electronic vote counting machine for transmission to Manila.
There are some great pictures in today's Straits Times that give you a taste of the whole event

There have been so many now that the only ones left to use are death by black hole in the universe or build an arc coz by the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes.
Normal precautions advised as the specific polls are not identified so could be voodoo.
Average of 6 polls Shows 50/50 vote split for remain / leave conducted between 25/04/16 and 03/05/16.
"This is why the fear factor was being ramped up by Cameron this morning. Nothing is working. The script had it that by this stage every official authority, foreign government, non-governmental organisation and international organisation backing the status quo would convince a fearful British public that poor old Blighty could not cope in the big bad world on her own. The Great British public seem to think “sod ’em all”…
Remain aren't panicking. They have set out a position, with clarity, about their satisfaction with the new relationship Dave has negotiated between the UK and the EU.
Remainers cannot of course promise that at some point in the future, the leaders of "The 27", from deep within their volcanic lair, won't authorise an airstrike on Hull. Or get the ECJ to forbid all future referendums in the UK on the subject of the EU. Or...or...
LOL
Of course it is a new relationship. No ECU, no EZ/non-EZ discrimination and some other fluff also. No ECU codified by the 28 leaders in an EU document (yes, yes, I know it is not yet in a treaty dear god give me strength), is about as much a new relationship as it can get.
Yes, from 1970 it was Bikini. The state was always BLACK ALPHA for all the years I was at RNH Haslar. By the time they closed that place I think the wooden boards had rotted and fused into place! Ten years after the system was abolished the gates of the old HMS Rooke, Gibraltar, still show BLACK.
I believe that the lowest status, WHITE, was never actually used anywhere in all its 35 years.
I'm marooned in fourth place in the Fantasy Football - the same as Jezza will be if he stays on until 2020.
For those of us who live here, we deal with the pragmatism of the situation.
Edit: sorry, that was unnecessarily rude.
I always start from here, it's just I wouldn't go in the direction of the Osbornites.
