Re: Michelle Obama moving up in the WH2024 betting – politicalbetting.com
The charges of timidity laid against Starmer and Reeves are exactly the same ones levelled at Blair and Brown in the mid-90s. Mandelson was fairly influential then as well and the analogy used by Roy Jenkins at the time was that of Blair trying to walk down a corridor holding an expensive vase. He didn't dare look left or… -
Re: New R&W poll: Just 19% support local fracking – politicalbetting.com
I have been busy for the last couple of hours but delighted Hunt has sacked Braverman as he moves the party towards a one nation conservative party I hope there are a good number of conservatives voting with labour on fracking and bring Truss down -

He touched 3-1 on Betfair during the 13th hole half-hour farce, I nearly hedged to back him then but was distracted by the cricket..... his response in the holes since that one has been hugely impressive. -

Morning all – and welcome Mr JacobD. Following the European Leaders debate on Guardian live – nothing of substance has been reported over the past half hour other than some very odd comments by Juckers. Was that it? -

Re: We need more bureaucracy – politicalbetting.com
Which brings us right back to the problem you mention in the threader - that the public sector actively resists building capability in-house because it's filled with Assistant Directors and Under Secretaries who can't countenance hiring a junior technical oik who expects to be paid the same as them. GDS was probably the… -
Re: Will Gavin Williamson still be in the cabinet on 31/12/2021? – politicalbetting.com
That's not quite true. My paternal grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in 1992. The council told my dad to sell her home and to stick her in one of their homes. My parents decided to look after her themselves. We sold her house and bought another house with a decent downstairs and moved in with her*. It was hard… -
Re: SKS looks out of step with his party on renationisation – politicalbetting.com
The best advice is never go to court on a point of principle. You don't really win the principle, and people seldom apologise. If you win you essentially get some cash (or cash equivalent). If you lose you lose some cash. So make a judgment based on expected quantum and probabilities. Yet people go to court on principle… -
Re: This is the “spin”. Now for some questions. – politicalbetting.com
Publishing Lord Pannick's advice would be interesting constitutionally, if ministers intend by doing so to criticise the Privileges Committee and its procedure. How would that not be government impeaching or questioning proceedings in Parliament, contrary to the Bill of Rights? If it's published via the House of Commons… -

If you had of course taken their first mid term results as a guide Obama, Reagan and Clinton would have been one term Presidents. The Democrats won the popular vote by 12% in 1982 - two years later Reagan won 49 out of 50 states in the electoral college. The Dems lost the popular vote by 7% in 2010, lost 63 House seats and… -

Re: politicalbetting.com » Blog Archive » Surely an Article 50 extension should be used to allow a prope
These process focused arguments are not getting anywhere. If you are going to argue against the result of the referendum from a liberal democratic perspective you have to focus on the “liberal” bit as the “democratic” bit was lost. Most liberal democracies have rules protecting the majority from depriving the rights of the… -

No if Dave and George had been right they would have built more houses in which case we'd be using bricks. It's that they didn't give a shit about it that they have lost the referendum and their careers are dust.
