Re: If Starmer goes Reeves is by far the best alternative – politicalbetting.com
Why do you think they will run out? "Reserves" are identified deposits that can be economically recovered using current technology. Resources are what exists. What happens is that the next slice of resources become economically viable, either through scarcity of reserves causing price rises, or techolnogy etc. Many rare… -
Re: Will the panickers stop panicking when their tanks are full? – politicalbetting.com
I went to university in 2010 on the £3k a year fees, have been consistently paid over the median salary, and am still nowhere near paying them off. No matter your opinions on whether 50% should be going to university or not, there is going to be a generation of young (some no longer so young) people who were told that… -

Re: LAB to get a poll lead before Oct 12th – new betting market – politicalbetting.com
Yep. There are some Tory policies that are simply morally wrong. But all parties do good and bad. Labour's BS on anti-semitism was also wrong. -
Re: Can anyone explain the weird politics of mask-wearing? – politicalbetting.com
Sorry to hear this, hope he’s OK. Weirdly, my school is so far more or less unaffected. But then we had it very badly last autumn (at one point lasting six weeks about a fifth of all children were off for six weeks - different fifths as we played whack a mole with new cases). I wonder if those schools that escaped lightly… -
Re: That YouGov LAB lead poll is increasingly looking like an outlier – politicalbetting.com
Of course I switched from daily to total; if one variable is switched from the input flow to the total stock, then so should be the other. Daily incidence of infection against daily incidence of infected hospitalisation is appropriate (N/day vs n/day); to switch to total prevalence of infected people, one should change the… -
Re: Watermelons or Green perennials: Are the Greens going anywhere? – politicalbetting.com
You know the economy has to be zero sum. However what matters is the activity in the economy. In the past a average person spent perhaps a couple of handfuls of wheat a day - now it's more like a couple of hundred kg. (Making these numbers up, but you get the point) -
Re: The front pages that should frighten ministers – politicalbetting.com
Yet more Remoaner bullshit. Desperately linking anything they can to Brexit no matter how stupid it makes them look. -
Re: BoJo would find it more challenging facing Angela Rayner – politicalbetting.com
I don't count myelf as a great reader of the tea leaves, but I'm pretty sure the Tories would rip both of your arms off now of you offered Anglea R as their opponent at the next election. -

Re: Biden’s heads towards getting negative ratings from the majority of Americans – politicalbetting.com
Were it not for habit, and the history of their rise to power making it unviable, they might be better off calling themselves the Chinese Nationalist Party instead. -

Hi I'm here. Watching figures with caution and neither pessimism nor optimism. -
Re: It looks as though Johnson will fail to get a US trade deal – politicalbetting.com
I will happily say something "Remainy" for a change: given the European continent shares many advanced Western economies that have similar-ish values and do a lot of trade with each other it makes sense to have an ambitious level of common market across them for agricultural produce, manufactured goods and some associated… -
Re: Pence for the 2024 nomination looks a good bet at 14/1 – politicalbetting.com
And if changing the leadership process needs doing, better to do it now than next year (when a general election is likely to be in the offing). And, let's be honest, the memberships of Labour and the Conservatives don't have a brilliant record of selecting leaders who are attractive to the general public. -
Re: One Current Leader. And One Future One? – politicalbetting.com
The Sea to Sky Highway is of course an iconic road in Canada linking Vancouver to Whistler and is a fantastic journey especially as on it you know you are heading for an amazing time in Whistler. Like calling a district wherein it runs the Route 66 District or similar. -
Re: Betting opportunities in the German election – politicalbetting.com
I'm not sure what incidence numbers you've used there. As far as I know, the ONS stopped reporting them for months while they reviewed their methodology, and when they started again the methodology was different. The ONS hedges the incidence estimate with a lot of caution by comparison with the "percentage testing… -

Re: All polls now have CON leads: LAB’s brief moment in the Sun is over – politicalbetting.com
The likely answer is a batsman retired hurt. He faced balls, scored runs but wasn’t out.
