You might have to lock your cash up for just over three years but you could at current prices go into the November 2024 White House election with bets on the two main contenders at odds of 20% each.

The Telegraph has found a GP practice that is temporarily closed because its public liability insurance has lapsed. The Telegraph is paywalled but here is the doctors' website:-
The Blandford Group Practice has had to make the difficult decision to temporarily postpone non-urgent routine appointments due to a lapse in public liability insurance.
Our team are working extremely hard to put measures in place to allow services to return to normal at the earliest opportunity, this includes the weekend vaccination clinics.
We would like to reassure patients that this is an insurance issue and not a clinical care issue.

I would have chosen Unloadstar.

Turns out that was an option after all - funny that.

But one UK forwarder said the prime minster was “deranged”.
“Bob the builder, I am not,” he added.
A few of the usual partisan jibes, and plenty of MSM trying to politisise it, but these enquiries really do need to be about understanding the processes that led to decisions, rather than trying to hold individuals accountable for anything other than egregious breaches of procedure.
Every country needs to learn their own lessons of the pandemic, in the same way as we learn from transport accident reports. Look globally at what worked (vaccines!) and what didn’t (PPE production and logistics, scale up of testing!), and invest now in planning for the next such event.
I suspect that those IMF projections reported in the FT today will look silly more quickly than normal.

It is important to analyse how we could have done better in the pandemic though, it’s clear with hindsight that a lot of assumptions, about human behaviour rather than the virus itself, turned out to be incorrect. The next national emergency will probably not be another pandemic, but there will be plans we could update significantly with what we’ve learned in the past 20 months. Let’s not forget that an awful lot of people died, many lives were turned upside-down, and something like £600bn of public money has been spent. A formal public enquiry is definitely required, with a wide remit to look at how things happened and what might have been done differently.
Is @Casino_Royale running Restore Trust?
Mr. Jonathan, to be fair, I find it hard to believe the country will suffer greatly by the absence of Boris Johnson. Indeed, if we add another 51 weeks of holiday to the one he's currently enjoying, it'd improve things substantially.
Is there a difference between medical malpractice insurance, and the sort of public liability insurance that covers someone tripping over a step and losing income because they’re off work for a month?
Falling consumer confidence and PMIs don't look great though for major growth, and we do have quite a bit of fiscal tightening being dished up shortly.
It does no harm to point out that Starmer is ffing useless and leading an utterly divided party. Didn't he have a real car crash recently as well as the political ones.
If we weren't growing, there'd be unemployment instead.
It's not as if PB is a hymn of praise for the LOTO!
Watching from afar, one gets the impression that a number of GP practices are taking the piss, and appear to be very difficult to hold to account.
Whether you get a 29th day off next year for the Jubilee would depend on the exact terms of your contract as it isn't automatic.
There will be some losses on ‘seasonal’ goods not arriving on time, and companies with manufacturing issues on things like cars and computers are going to recover more slowly (I still can’t get a PS5, grr!).
Once the pent-up demand has worked through, we could be looking at a couple of years of flat growth at best - which is why I’d be betting on a 2023 election rather than 2024. Likely late ‘23, once the new boundaries have gone through.
But my local GP is still closed
In one of our economic briefings (written by the female of the species) she wrote this very topic with the observation that 'we all know the dangers of when you have a massive load that you need to empty and nowhere and no one to help you unload it.'
That loathing will be quite some motivation to GOTV, and will be up against half heartedness at best about Starmer.
I don't see his lack of HGV skills particularly the issue. Didn't he knock over a cyclist a year or so ago too? The sooner he gets a government driver the better...
Simply "not being him" isn't enough.
Mercedes looked quite a bit ahead of the Red Bull in Istanbul.

ETA we talked the other day about the increasing number of doctors opting for part-time work, and gap years during training.
Though we are probably 2 years away from finding out. An autumn election in 2023 sounds increasingly likely.
Oh, and FPT - if you need to work with your personal laptop, and don’t fancy showing your colleagues your desktop or browsing history, then create a new user account you numpty!
Anyway, looking at wiki, I was surprised to see the cause of Jim Dobbin’s death - looks like he got extremely drunk at an official dinner in Poland, and choked on his food. I was very interested in the subsequent by election in Heywood & Middleton - backed UKIP at 14/1 I think, and they lost by 627 votes - but hadn’t noticed that
It was the same day as Douglas Carswell’s Clacton by election, and UKIP probably focussed too much on that one, which turned out to be an easy win, and didn’t take H&M seriously enough. The original price in Clacton was 4/6 UKIP which I couldn’t get a penny on, but was massive value

They have absolutely no-one to blame but themselves for its creation.
I work in IT, and there’s nothing worse than having to deal with the senior management looking over your shoulder as you try and work out why that server just crashed. I feel the same way about the fire service and army units that have to deal with floods, when half the top brass and a minister or two turn up to get in the way for their own benefit.
I think one common feature with the HGV issue is that a lot of folk have found out during lockdowns that they like more time at home, and the pleasures therein. No point in thrashing yourself to an early grave chasing a few consumer baubles, take it easy and cut your hours even at the expense of pay.
Labour polled 2% and 2.7% in the Newbury & Christchurch by elections in 1993, the latter where their vote fell by 9.4% didn't stop them winning a landslide in 1997.
Would your piece cover Airdrie and Shotts?
Flood or other disaster, natural or man-made, they need to turn up at the insistence of the media and vox-pops of idiots saying “why isn’t Boris here seeing the flooding, he doesn’t care about us”….. it’s ridiculous.
I seem to remember exactly this last time there was major flooding.
Would prefer a PM to say “I’m not turning up at future disasters in person because if I do I’m followed by fifty minders and journalists and get in the way of the police and emergency services who can actually do something about the situation on site whereas I can’t”….
I remember Tony Blair and David Cameron getting similar criticism, or taking the mick out of Theresa May for the modest Swiss walking trips.
I wasn't impressed by Gordon Brown always working either, and look what happened to him.
