Very shallow market, but Juppe appears to be tightening again on BF?
Decent turnout, maybe not as much as the polls were predicting but still relatively good. In theory that is good for Juppe, though does depend where exactly is turning out.
Can a boro player please wind up Costa asap... he is on 4 yellows
I'm officially fearful for West Ham's chances this season
Could be worse. I have backed Leicester for relegation. We are looking woeful. Zieler is hopeless in goal and our only decent midfielder is knackered. We are not going to be attractive to signings in Jan, and Mahrez and Slimani are off to the AFCON.
The highs and lows of following Citeh!
What's the record for winning the league and then getting relegated? Blackburn did it in 4 years.

Without checking, the Marseille must be close to holding that title. One year from winning the title to relegation.
I think France is ripe for a revolt against the establishment. However, that revolt will not be Le Pen. Apart from the Far-Right stuff, she and her party are just another part of the establishment. Though the establishment tries to to pretend (as does she) that this is not so.
She cannot win unless an utter, utter hopeless fool makes it to the last round with her.
A genuine surprise candidate could easily pop up, though.
Interesting thought : Obama was the rebellion candidate once - stormed the heights of the Democratic party to take the crown from Hillary.... As was Bill Clinton, back in his day (to a certain extent). Note that both candidates got there by *talking* about those left behind...

Though that was due to a bribery scandal.
Man City achieved this by being relegated after winning the top flight in the 1930's I believe
So in France, Socialists would prefer a Republican to Le Pen, but Republicans would prefer Le Pen to a Socialist. Says it all.
I don't think that's true at all. Les Republicans supporters just hate Hollande.
....and would prefer a Fascist to Hollande.
Hollande vs Le Pen would be the same as Hillary vs Donald. Shit vs shit.
Hollande is currently polling behind (1) Le Pen, (2) the Les Republicains candidate, (3) Macron, (4) Melenchon, and (5) Bayrou.
He's sixth. He has about as much chance in facing Le Pen in the second round as I have of dating Emma Watson*.
* She's not my type.
You mean you don't like self-righteous lefties?
Is Emma Watson left-wing? I've not paid much attention but a quick check of Twitter finds a lot of stuff on feminism, but the Prime Minister might agree with most of that.

Standard sleb stuff. Not particularly deep, but even more irritating for that. I don't really care what position people adopt so long as it is internally consistent and derived from first principles.
I love the way that right wingers attack well-off lefty actors for their incoherently expressed beliefs, but stay silent about the views espoused by privileged white supremacists appointed to senior positions by Donald Trump.
First numbers are beginning to filter through from individual French provinces, confirm Juppe and Fillon on c. 30% apiece, and Sarkozy in the low to mid 20s.
Perhaps and judging by another tweet it looks like a small sample; but if it's true then it's a significantly higher Left vote and lower Centre-Right than polling was showing.
I would like to think under those circumstances British voters would opt for Jezza.
Sorry, Sandy, but who or what is this "Nick Griffin"?
Nick Griffin is a virulent racist, and coincidentally a strong supporter of Leave
And? Plenty of nasties have allied themselves with both sides. I see Blair is aligning himself as the de facto leader of Team Remain. How unpalatable is that.
Perhaps, and juging by another tweet it looks like a small sample; if it's true then it's a significantly higher Left vote and lower Centre-Right than polling was showing.
If the Odexa numbers are true, and it's a respected polling company, then it's Fillon vs Juppe next week. You have to reckon Fillon is the favourite here.

I think that part of the problem is that a lot of the time with 'lefty' celebrities they're not saying what they think, but what they think will sound good to their chosen demographic at the next party. Therefore, they sometimes give the impression of being incoherent.
Meanwhile, Pence's views (for example) may be repellent but are hardly incoherent. They clearly are his views, and he doesn't care what anyone thinks of him apart apparently from the cast of Hamilton.

This ATP final certainly living up to its billing so far.
And win or lose, how nice to see Djokovic hold his hand up for that fluke on the net. What a gentleman.
I'm with Fighting Talk's Greg Brady; why would you apologise for net cords ? "You're not sorry ! "
Because he thinks he can win without benefit of luck? Or wants to, at least? Or perhaps because he and the man leading 1-0 and 2-0 is an old friend and he genuinely felt a bit guilty about it?

Just imagine how the avalanche of posts on PB if Jeremy Corbyn had appointed someone with the history of Steve Bannon.
I did not realise M. Fillon's wife is Welsh. I wonder if her family voted Leave.
Balance of probabilities is in favour, given where she's from.
I did my teaching training round there and there was lots of unhappiness at the closure of a local steelworks. People (wrongly, as it happens) blamed Europe and Westminster for it.

He gets more Sarko switchers, presumably?
Yes, albeit the gap is relatively small. Thursday's poll, which had 31% Juppe, 30% Fillon, 28% Sarkozy for the first round, had 50/50 for the second. Fillon is outperforming, so I'd expect him to win 53-47 or so. Still, while he's definitely favourite, it's by no means a cert.

Not sure about that. Plenty of tight wingers on here, on Guido and elsewhere have - quite rightly - called out Corbyn over anti-semitism. But on the white supremacists who surround Trump there has been silence.

Just to think in parts of the UK homosexuality was illegal a little over thirty years ago.

Clearly there are some posters on here who positively enjoy and sympathise with the white supremacist racebaiters, but I don't think most do. Yet as far as I can tell only MaxPB has unequivocally condemned Trump's embrace of racism (apologies to others who have). The silence of others is baffling and, quite frankly, rather shameful.

Pence doesn't seem to care about what the cast of Hamilton thinks of him, incidentally. That was Trump. The people whose opinion he cares about are on the (very) right wing of the Republican party.

No, the fact that Margaret Thatcher actually decriminalised homosexuality in Scotland and Northern Ireland is true (I seem to recall).

FPT - Tony Blair and his ilk are responsible for the UK voting to leave the EU.
In Tim Shipman's excellent definitive new book on Brexit, he argues that Tony Blair is the Godfather of Brexit.
Letting rip on immigration in 2004 was one factor, but, if he'd allowed a vote on the Lisbon Treaty, we'd have likely voted "no", and the EU and our relationship with it would have taken a different direction.

The Scottish attitude to homosexuality went through a spectacularly rapid change. When the age of consent was lowered to 18 across mainland UK in 1994 the Scottish police forces said they were going to treat it as 16.

It usually is. In a little over 20 years the Tory party went from being the party of Section 28 to the party of same sex marriage.
