Re: Will Richard Burgon be our next Prime Minister? – politicalbetting.com
This is an odd story. From Robert Fripp. ‘ Robert Fripp still confused about why hospital “shaved my balls” after heart attack "The man shaving my balls didn’t tell me," he said, while sharing an update on his health’ https://x.com/nme/status/2058855199750619170?s=61 -
Re: Did Peter Murrell’s embezzling cost Yes the 2014 independence referendum? – politicalbetting.com
Unlike Westminster where the big grifting takes place and nobody knows anything. £200M for TAT please. Why are all those cabinet members who helped chums swindle billions in England still out and about and all their chums and themselves are still rich. -

Make absolutely no difference, as said many times rest of EU manage no problem. It is an English disease not a European one. -
Re: Restore set to hand Andy Burnham victory in Makerfield new poll shows – politicalbetting.com
It’s interesting how the Process State has jumped on the cause of enforcing this judgement. I suppose it is a combination of a Supreme Court judgement = unquestionable rules, cost of enforcement born by the organisations, not the regulators and the fact that it is small issue. Compared to removing all the rapists from the… -
Re: Restoring my faith in the betting markets – politicalbetting.com
I'd agree with most of that. I think the point of the 0.1% is to evidence the massive political exaggeration applied to the "threat" posed by women wearing burkas / niqabs. It's just a symbol of something "other" that is required as an anchor for the political campaign. There are cases coming through over the last year or… -

Re: Why abolishing the triple lock would be political suicide – politicalbetting.com
I often find it odd that so many Politicians sell feel big Infrastructure projects on; "How Much we are Investing in the Economy!" and "Creating Thousands of High Quality Jobs!" and get applauded by it on things like Question Time by audiences who don't seem to ask; Who's paying for this and is it value for monetary! If… -

Preserving a language can be difficult if there are too few to justify printing school books. The Sami are buying Finnish school textbooks and over labelling with Sami translations. So they get the structure but in their language. People can be very inventive in resisting outside influences. -

Re: Streeting fighting man? – politicalbetting.com
Good thread on what a Burnham premiership might actually do 1/ Thought experiment doing the rounds in my head this morning. Burnham replaces Starmer. He walks into Number 10 with the Manchester accent and the real Labour framing. He announces the renationalisation of water, energy, rail, and grid. All of it. Funded by,… -
