Re: LAB gets its best Westminster by-election performance for five years at Airdrie & Shotts – political
I’m willing to lay @Leon a sportman’s wager on both the British weather and the Indian variant. I say 1) it doesn’t snow in London until the winter. 2) the Indian variant is no more deadly in the UK than any other strain (within normal MOE). Leon? -

"Not United Kingdom voters who ignored Brexit’s consequences for its peace settlement." Please don't tar me with that brush. This is one of the reasons I voted Remain and will never support Brexit. -

Re: Should Some Groups Need to Pay to Vote? – politicalbetting.com
I agree with Robert Smithson about postal voting, where the real problem of voter fraud remains unaddressed. There should be voter registration days like they have in South Africa. So those who do want to vote by post, need to present photo ID and residential ID to register for this. The system works in a poor country. It… -

Re: Why the Tories have LESS than a 90% chance of winning the Chesham and Amersham by-election – politic
Thanks for reply. Standing up for "British workers." That's the key phrase here. Specifically the balance. Is it mainly because they're British or mainly because they're workers?, ie how much nationalism is in there, just a bit or an awful lot? - TBC one day. @isam -
Re: For the first time since GE2019 a CON overall majority is now favourite next general election outcom
I don't think so. Blair and Thatcher were well liked in the USA, where the money is really made. As it is Johnson isn't much noticed in The USA and isn't close to the current President. -

Re: These elections remind us that leader ratings and supplementaries are a better predictor of electora
A Tory majority of 100 was overturned in 1964. In 1945 a National Govt majority of circa 250 was easily overturned - admittedly after an almost 10 year Parliament and the exceptional post World War2 circumstances. In 1929 Baldwin's huge majority achieved in 1924 disappeared. -

Re: And for election day – The Uncultured Mr Maslow – politicalbetting.com
Just seen the graphics on the swings to Labour in various counties relative to 2017. Minimal. The subtitles I picked up seemed to be a ray of hope narrative for Labour, but I was just thinking 'Ouch'. I mean, I know none of Kent, Essex or Leicestershire constitute Greater Remainia, but still. The NEV is likely to be… -
Re: The Tories look set to take Hartlepool which has seen a huge turnout – politicalbetting.com
So Labour lefties think that the reason they lost Hartlepool was because they weren't loony lefty enough? And the response to the huge defeat there is to double down on Corbyn policies? If that is the case they are deluded beyond belief. Sorry, Jezziah, but your diagnosis is so, so wrong. In trying to hold both the metro… -
