Re: A 33% return in just under two and a half years? – politicalbetting.com
AFAIK, the Scottish Government pays for the expense of conducting the Referendum. As it is a legal duty under the Referendums (Scotland) Act 2020 for LAs to raise awareness and encourage people to vote, councillors refusing to cooperate could probably be suspended if they refuse to do so. -
Re: Truss dominates Sunak in the polling except the key one? – politicalbetting.com
If the Loch Ness monster existed there would need to be at least 50 of them. Air breathing plesiosaurs or whatever. One surfacing every minute or so. Think we might have noticed. -

In "Earthlight", Arthur C. Clarke wrote: "Man could not do without the Moon. It had been his first bridgehead in space and was still the key to the planets. The liners that plied from world to world got all their propellant mass here, filling their great tanks with the finely divided dust which the ionic rockets would spit… -
Re: The real winner of tonight’s debate was Starmer & Labour – politicalbetting.com
I agree, I believe selection at 11 is fundamentally evil. My point was if secondary education except for selective Grammar Schools is to be criminally underfunded by the Conservatives at least one or two smart poor people out of a nation of 67m getting a good education is better than none. -
Re: Is the British public the new Édith Piaf? – politicalbetting.com
It's a real shame the Tories elected a lazy clown who had no interest in anything other than soundbites. Don Bradman played in Aberdeen once. -
Re: Truss continues to be a 65% chance in the next PM betting – politicalbetting.com
I managed 5: Spelthorne, Hartlepool, Brentford and Isleworth, Huddersfield and East Yorkshire. I then fell down at Aldridge-Brownhills (knew it was somewhere in the West Midlands but was stuck at throwing darts at the conurbation). I was lucky to have avoided the Scottish seats which all merge into one for me and is my… -

Re: Sunak leads by 9% as appearing a PM in waiting – politicalbetting.com
We should do a mix of things because predicting the future is hard and diversity in supply provides an additional bonus in responding to changing circumstances. -
Re: What do the “Turnip Taliban” think of their MP now? – politicalbetting.com
Appreciate the reply. I'll go a little way with that, but this is not really specialist, except perhaps for the wrinkles of the price cap - they have been running Public Information films on most of this for 40 years. And every house sale by law has an EPC certificate with estimates of energy and bills for about 15 years… -

Re: YouGov CON members poll has Truss 24% ahead – politicalbetting.com
It's certainly a departure from the home-owning dream. The Tory dream nowadays appears to be live with your parents and eat deliveroo pizza? -
Re: Sunak edging closer in the CON leader betting – politicalbetting.com
I note it has already been said, but could it be there is a big difference between activists and members. I have certainly experienced that in the LDs, particularly when Charles Kennedy was elected leader. -
Re: Johnson could face by-election in his Uxbridge seat – politicalbetting.com
I would go for the 800 calorie eight week approach. Typically shed 2 stone and is great for blood parameters, and seems to reset the metabolic thermostat. https://thebloodsugardiet.com/800-calorie-diet-study/ 800 calories is pretty tough. I found 1200 quite sustainable -

I would have thought learning about how a lot of Cocks randomly and wantonly screw absolutely everything would have been an excellent preparation for working at Northern Rock. -
Re: Opinium finds double-digit LAB leads whoever becomes PM – politicalbetting.com
I don’t quite get your point, but the most productive bits of NZ are the plains. Bay of Plenty pre-eminently, also Canterbury and Taranaki. Dairy is king now, not sheep-farming. Sheep farming had (has) a slightly different geographic pattern. -
