Re: politicalbetting.com » Blog Archive » If Boris Johnson is putting the CTF band together the last tim
I wonder if anyone can advise me on a personal issue (I'd be grateful if any responses don't take up political implications, views on the NHS etc etc). I have a relative who for many years has suffered from acute anxiety and obsessions about certain common words and behaviour, especially loud noises. She lives quietly in a… -
Re: What’s this chart going to look like on Friday? – politicalbetting.com
Number 10 staff were involved in a "seven-hour drinking session", according to the Telegraph. Seven hours. Starmer and team had a drink with some food. These things do not seem similar to me. Another quote from the same article: "Another new claim is that some attendees went down the child slide belonging to Wilf Johnson,… -
Re: politicalbetting.com » Blog Archive » Beware the over-prompting of Mark Reckless and UKIP in Roch
I'll bite. EdM (from BBC report): A major theme will be the "zero-zero economy", which he said was about "people asking why they are on zero-hours contracts while those at the top get away with zero tax". Given the context, it's pretty clear he's talking about people, not corporations. Zero number 1: This government is… -

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-64836425 "Boris Johnson may have misled Parliament over Partygate, MPs investigating his conduct say. Evidence strongly suggests breaches of coronavirus rules would have been "obvious" to Mr Johnson, the privileges committee said in an update. The inquiry has found four examples where… -
Re: What do we think of the John Rentoul Dim Sum forecast? – politicalbetting.com
The misanthropy bit means me, I imagine, and what I am articulating is pro charity misanthropy. It is not a free market, a middle class guy knocking up a poor person's house is exerting social pressure, and you presumably don't dispute the evidence that almost every body is seriously pushed for money at the moment? Door to… -
Re: politicalbetting.com » Blog Archive » Your regular reminder that hypothetical polls can be as accura
Been travelling for 24 hours.... back in London, I am surprised to see the Tory pessimism on here. And I am prone to pressimism. Looks pretty clear to me that the Tory lead has stabilised and probably widened again. 10-11%? And Boris' popularity has bounced back but as Corbyn's has fallen away once more. This is surely a… -
Re: politicalbetting.com » Blog Archive » PB Nighthawks is now open
This is one of those days when I find myself thinking that maybe living in England isn't as bad as I remember.... After a nice weekend with temperatures of 80, my cell phone has been blowing up for the last hour or so with weather warnings - heavy rain, supercell thunderstorm wrapped tornadoes (sic), heavy downpour, large… -

Re: Oh dear… ODA… – politicalbetting.com
The latest outbreak of AZ paranoia has been reported from Bulgaria, where they've halted their immunisation program over a single case.

Re: Your regular reminder that the Tories & Reform are two discrete blocs not one homogenous bloc
Its complex isn't it? I see a lot of students claiming lots of things that will potentially game the system. The uni has a system of allowing students to get DAPs (disability access plans). Quite often these will get the student extra time in exams (typically 20 % longer) than students without a DAP. Or they might get rest… -
