Re: If the Tories hold Tiverton & Honiton then Johnson will surely survive – politicalbetting.com
Rubbish, at both ends. The brightest need much more education because they Hoover up much more knowledge. Teaching really gifted children is a hundred times harder than teaching those with low attainment. And there are certainly large numbers of children in mainstream schools who for various medical reasons cannot possibly… -

Re: ECHR withdrawal in 2022? – politicalbetting.com
And neither did many other people. You also need to take the context of this into account. The rail system has had unprecedented amounts invested into it for the last couple of decades. Tens of billions of enhancements and renewals - and Crossrail and HS2 are only minority part of that. Passenger numbers increased… -
Re: A 75/1 and 80/1 tip for next PM – politicalbetting.com
An October General Election? Hard to know. I doubt it, but then I know several things: 1. Johnson wants to stay as Prime Minister longer than Cameron managed (so six years and two months). 2. He can't get to that length without winning another General Election (July 2019 to September 2025 is the six years and two months).… -

Re: The LDs edging back up in the Devon by-election betting – politicalbetting.com
No, for the simple reason that until we decide what we actually want our school system to do (one problem at the moment it’s trying to do too many things at once) there’s very little point in proposing solutions. -
Re: Sunak could be on the way back – politicalbetting.com
In America, the most common food cure-all is chicken soup. Partly because of the Jewish* influence, since many Jewish women were convinced that it had almost magical properties. (As I understand it, it's not a bad food for colds, and respiratory infections generally. It's warm, mostly liquid, and can help reduce… -
Re: Half of CON voters say Johnson behaves unerthically – politicalbetting.com
I pointed out before that the problem with Versailles was the *lack of humiliation*. It took marching into Berlin, dividing the country up like a pizza and forcing the Germans to reapply to join the human race to get real change, there. -
Re: The Tories still favorite to win most General Election seats – politicalbetting.com
Do you want to come and burn some notes in this doley’s face, just for laughs? That would be equally funny. -
Re: The LDs claim to be just 2% behind in Tiverton & Honiton – politicalbetting.com
Electric cars. I thought they were more reliable due to being simpler. I've had to cancel a meeting this morning because my visitor's nearly new electric car has gone phut. Apparently it has turned itself off and is refusing to play ball - like a lazy corgi. It is called a Cupra, which I had never heard of, despite driving… -

Re: Penny Mordaunt now favourite in next CON leader betting – politicalbetting.com
That's not the point, British law and due process is inconvenient for the government but its our due process not some unelected unaccountable body. High Court judgement of Justice Swift makes it clear this should be a matter of government policy. -
Re: The Yorkshire Party for 3rd place in Wakefield? – politicalbetting.com
The EU has continued to negotiate. They have continued putting forward new ideas. They aren’t breaking the terms of the agreement by introducing new legislation. The EU’s approach appears to have support from a majority of NI Assembly members. I find it hard to view calm negotiations as having failed. There are issues and… -
Re: The Tories edge up a touch in theTiverton and Honiton betting – politicalbetting.com
Tiverton. 1. The landscape is heavily Orange, posters and boards. The Lib dems have conducted the heaviest canvass and report good body language in response, (that is usually more important than what people say). 2. Based on the General Election vote fogures I estimate the Lib Dems would need a 16% swing to take the seat.… -
