Re: Why you need an exorcist to deal with Boris Johnson – politicalbetting.com
My experience of Norway is that, as far as the clear blue skies go, that is not that dofferent from normal. Whenever I used to fly into Hammerfest from the Barents Sea in the summer I was always amazed at how cloudless the skies seemed. Not generally that warm though. -

Swapping people who arrive by boat with people who don't try to cross the channel illegally could distance people from wasting their time and money crossing the channel in small boats, reducing the number of people entering the country illegally. Asylum seekers make up a small part of net migration, the larger component is… -
Re: The Entente Cordiale – politicalbetting.com
Afternoon all :) As someone closing in on the state pension, I'm fairly ambivalent about the Triple Lock as, to be honest, many pensioners will see a chunk of that increase taken in tax by HMRC if they aren't wholly reliant on the state pension. The obvious answer, you'd think, would be to ensure the state pension remains… -

Re: Wholly Unacceptable Behaviour – politicalbetting.com
The appeals are partly self selecting because they will be done by those who know the system and what will succeed but that is still an astonishingly high rate. Two different things arise. First, the quality of decision making at the Home Office borders on the abysmal and that relates not only to their decisions but their… -
Re: How many Reform MPs on the 31st of December 2025? – politicalbetting.com

And of the 1930s we did not dance the American "austerity collapso", but relatively inflated our economy (helped by significant military expenditure re-inflation from quite early. Quite a lot of the stuff that reaches the news is fluff - whether… -

Re: Political authority is a lot like virginity, once it is gone it is very difficult to get back
IMO that's a fallacious argument for a number of reasons: 1 - It assumes the existence of reckless cyclists. Basically there aren't any in that area. That is one minor culture war I am fighting locally - against the folk myth about ASB created by poor police advice in the 1970s 1980s and 1990s when they believed in cutting…
