Re: It’s the energy cap, stupid – politicalbetting.com
If we're refused to have a lockdown, allowed nature to take its course, then I suspect that current waiting lists would be a lot better not a lot worse. The waiting lists are a consequence of shutting down society to keep people alive. -
Re: How’s Truss going to do against Starmer and vice versa? – politicalbetting.com
Compared with a lingering death through debilitating illness and chronic pain, not being allowed to sit on a park bench for a couple of months during lockdown is of nothing. Check your privilege, as the Wokeists say. Remember David Cameron's remark, after Ivan's death, that he did not know if his son had ever been happy… -

I think a problem with the boat crossings is that it's not clear whether they are mixed civilian and military loads. I think that's why Ukraine haven't hit them yet. -
Re: Trump down in the WH2024 betting after the Mar-a Lago raid – politicalbetting.com
As Captain Rumm said, opinion is divided on the subject - he says that he got a 2:1, and the rest of his year say he got a third. Anyway, Oxford's history degree is a joke, they gave Dominic Cummings a first so quality is clearly not their watchword. -
Re: Today’s front pages with a taste of what the new PM will face – politicalbetting.com
It could also be that teachers have lower expectations for black students, and therefore don't push them as hard. What is needed is the system having faith in black students, expecting the very highest standards, and pushing them to achieve. Instead, we get the demonstrably racist notion that black students cannot perform… -
Re: Powerful from Beto O’Rourke – politicalbetting.com
Indeed. It speaks of ignorance and prejudice maintaining each other. The book "The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health" was written by RFK Junior, a Democrat and not at all a Trumpian. Similarly, believing the Crimean referendum to have been genuine doesn't make a… -
Re: Is it time for the Redwall Tory MPs to panic? – politicalbetting.com
@Leon I really want you to go and see this guy that I recommended to @MarqueeMark earlier, Dom Pipkin. If you can go to one of his gigs and not come away a convert to NOLA R&B, I'll be astonished that you've proven yourself such a heathen Unfortunately I missed an opportunity to promote his excellent live show to you… -

Re: The Dems now favourites for the US Senate – politicalbetting.com
I think it’s more to do with Russia being the largest country in the world and, thus, conveniently including some large gas fields. -
Re: YouGov has Truss 3% behind Starmer as “best PM” – politicalbetting.com
The most influential is a Canadian one from 20 years ago iirc. It is quite dense and algebraic though. Nobody said that company profits tax is the only, or indeed the major, factor in growth or innovation, merely that it is a significant one. -

Re: Starmer’s set to have a challenging September – politicalbetting.com
They can start with the real left-wingers, then get to work on dangerous centerists like myself, and finish up by getting HY to go through the Tory membership list crossing off all those who aren't proper Tories. That should throw up lots of people to dig a very long canal to somewhere. -
