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. That would indicate that the EU is not a reliable partner when it comes to confronting Russian aggression, weakened too much… -

Re: Will Bonnie Blue get the voters coming to support Reform? – politicalbetting.com
@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 -

Re: Trump admits his polling is very bad – politicalbetting.com
I don't either. I've tried (since it would be nice) but I can't get there. You can't think your way to it. That said, I'm not attracted to loud superrational 'hammer to crack an eggshell' atheism a la Hitchens and Dawkins. -

Re: Young Republicans drawn to Holocaust denial and racism – politicalbetting.com
Talk and more talk. That's what European leaders are good at, not so good at action though. They've been talking about giving all the confiscated Russian assets to Ukraine for over three years but never seem to do so. And if stopping Putin is existential why are we so ill prepared for war:… -

Re: Spot the outlier – politicalbetting.com
I wouldn't use GDP in a foreign currency to compare GDP growth differences, for the reasons you describe, namely the volatility in FX rates. Also it doesn't really measure what we are trying to compare, namely the comparative growth of the economy in real terms. First, it is a nominal measure. Second, much of what we… -
