Re: Sunak sees huge “Next PM” betting boost after his budget – politicalbetting.com
My sense is that masking has been one of the more marginal interventions in the whole COVID affair, neither the catastrophe of @NerysHughes imagination not the cure all of the do-more brigade who I still hear calling for outdoor masking. Why? The whole horses for courses nature of masks was lost in the usual woeful… -

Even so I expect even Debenhams now employs more people in its warehouses processing online deliveries and in its vans delivering them than in its actual stores nowadays, Amazon of course now has just warehouses and deliverers with no store at all and a few techies to manage its online service Amazon will soon be virtually… -
Re: Rishi should have touched on climate change – politicalbetting.com
It was annoyingly cagey yesterday. Not on naughty opinions but on its abilities to say anything about statistical trends in demographics and taxation. Even when I pointed it to world bank, OECD and UN data it wasn't having any of it. Kept saying it only has data up to 2021 and I kept reminding it I didn't need anything… -

The new Navy lark: The Royal Navy is proud to announce its new fleet of Type 45 destroyers. Having initially named the first two ships HMS Daring and HMS Dauntless,the Naming Committee has, after intensive pressure from Brussels, renamed them HMS Cautious and HMS Prudence. The next five ships are to be HMS Empathy, HMS… -

You would think that, but the growth rates for those countries at the top of the list - the Baltics in particular - has actually been very quick. If you give me 10 minutes I'll produce you a scatter chart. There are two reasons why this might be the case. Firstly, a lot of the migrants from Poland, Estonia and the like,… -

Good account in the FT of Jim Murphy's seat and the peril that he's in: http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/2b9dcf04-e8d5-11e4-87fe-00144feab7de.html#axzz3XxoAtHW1 The whole thing is worth reading but here's some vox pop: "At a bus stop, Frank Curke, a former docker who took part in the “Red Clyde” strikes of the 1970s, says he will… -

Evening all. Simply superb news about Dylan and the Nobel. Ok his books aren't much cop, and his metal art is just weird - but he must be the most influential lyricist in English in the last 50 years. A true genius. Even if you don't like his music, everyone on this board can probably rattle off a few Dylan quotes without… -

Sort of agree about the clothes washing, but this stuff doesn't seem that potent for a superweapon, does it? Spy thrillers used to go on about stuff of which 1 tsp in a reservoir would kill most of Greater London. Let's tell Putin his poisons are a metaphor for his penis. If senior Russian personnel hadn't been so twattish… -
Re: Who will the GE2019 Tory don’t knows end up voting for? – politicalbetting.com
PB really just boils down to a few kilobytes of text. The decades of technological advancement hasn’t really made informed, in-depth political discussion any better, has it? Perhaps there’s been some advancements in polling (MRP?) which have taken advantage of increased computing power, but basically the big advancement… -
Re: politicalbetting.com » Blog Archive » Betfair voids its London Mayoral 2020 market following the ele
I thought posters may be interested in my experience of the Wales NHS last night. I saw my doctor last thursday about an abcess and it was agreed that as I had had two courses of antibiotics over another matter, the abcess would be treated with cream. However by last night it had become very 'angry' so I went at 8.30pm to… -
Re: politicalbetting.com » Blog Archive » Why on earth did LAB select a candidate for the Stoke by-elect
My father was born just to the East of the City of London and when he and his new wife were re-housed after the war (having been bombed out) it was to Battersea and then Wandsworth. In his later years he told me that moving South of the River was the hardest thing he had ever done. To his dying day he maintained that the… -
