Re: Wes Streeting displays absolutely no subtlety as he goes on manoeuvres – politicalbetting.com
The thing of talking to a correspondent on the scene (who mostly repeats what the newsreader has already said, but out in the local weather) is very 1980s and has felt pointless for many years now. -

Re: Ed Miliband is 33/1 to be the next Chancellor – politicalbetting.com
The council tax surcharge on second homes is a deliberate and well thought out policy that is intended to fight the second home blight that is destroying local villages especially in Gwyned and Pembrokeshire.

Re: Even Reform voters support rejoining Erasmus – politicalbetting.com
Sorry I bothered. Johnson's Turing scheme was clearly fantastic. And I don't expect to rejoin with the spectre of Farage in the background. -

Re: Starmer once again displays his lawyerly brilliance – politicalbetting.com
I think Gardenwalker's idea of an Anglo-Canadian Union was the right sort of scale of response needed. It's very concerning that it looks like the EU will be unable to agree to seize Russian assets.

@jamesrball.com “No less an authority than the United Kingdom’s former Prime Minister, Liz Truss” That’s a real sentence that someone wrote, which made it into Trump’s legal filing. https://bsky.app/profile/jamesrball.com/post/3ma3s5k6rik26 -
