Re: The outcast in Anchorage: A senate storm brews in Alaska – politicalbetting.com
For the public, yes, but national agreements between governments are a bit more cold blooded. -
Re: Back home Rentoul thinks the betting markets are wrong on Sunak – politicalbetting.com
He won't go nuclear. He'll go chemical. He has a track record with using chemical and nucleotide agents, and it is much easier to do an Assad and blame the other side for using them. The apologists for Assad have contributed to this mess. -

Re: Protests mount in Russia against Putin’s Ukraine invasion – politicalbetting.com
. I think it's fairly clear that the strategy is to capture or kill all the Ukraine leadership and install puppets in their place. Zelensky is a very brave man to remain in the capital broadcasting to the world as it is under siege. Whether such a strategy is viable against a people prepared to resist is far from certain.… -
Re: Punters think the Ukraine invasion will help Johnson’s survival chances – politicalbetting.com
Well I have no voice or standing compared to Gauke but I am certainly not one of the usual suspects and I would agree that Farage is behaving like a fuckwit and what he is doing - or rather saying - is close to treasonous. You don't give succour to the enemy in a time of war and for better or worse that is where we are now. -
Re: So the war starts – Ukraine is being invaded – politicalbetting.com
Andrew Marr is some sort of comedy lickspittle. That 'great man' wank is embarrassing. Putin suffers from a fragile masculinity and is nothing special. The world has lots of men with toxic attitudes. The fact that Russia was ripe to be colonised by that sort of tosser is regrettable and partially our fault. We here in the… -
Re: It is now evens that Johnson will survive 2022 – politicalbetting.com
In all honesty, I think Johnson should resign. Today. He will not be up to this, at all. I really don't want him to be British Prime Minister. He needs replacing immediately. -
Re: The French election – the fight to be in the final two – politicalbetting.com
It is my eldest's 29th birthday today. Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined that at much the same age as I was when he came along, he would be looking at the obliteration of a nation state by an aggressive power in Europe. Awful. Truly awful. I have such happy memories of Kiev. It does feel, in the past few… -
Re: Time to bet that Le Pen won’t get on the ballot – politicalbetting.com
Why not? Handing your opponents publicity coup. I not thinking my tactic is too nice, only practical. I wouldn’t want my enemy to get any boost from wall to wall tv coverages of civilian suffering in wars zone, civilian deaths rising, images of refugees with screaming babies and small children - all that on news will… -

Re: The mood in former Soviet states – politicalbetting.com
Thanks for the response. From memory, his approval ratings - in Scotland! - are at Boris Johnson levels, and even his own lawyer had to concede he was a bit dodgy (I forget the exact quote). When I look at other RT “hosts” like Ken Livingstone and Jeremy Corbyn I do think Mr Salmond is badly advised to continue doing that… -

Sure, but he might not have the means to maintain an occupation against determined guerilla resistance. -
