Re: politicalbetting.com » Blog Archive » How it could go wrong for LAB in South Shields: 1. The man
"Fenster's post is just typical anecdotal made up fiction but every pbtory will nod sagely and believe it as gospel." In areas where the local industry was all off-shored or closed down in one go so whole communities went into long-term unemployment all at the same time the old shame culture held together by peer pressure… -
Re: WTF? – politicalbetting.com
Twix is giving me lots of subtle and not-so-subtle anti-black racist stuff. There seems to be a distinct split between UK and US online racism: US's seems to be often about blacks and how poorly they behave; the UK's about Muslims. But the commonality seems to be an insinuation that not only are those groups dangerously… -
Re: politicalbetting.com » Blog Archive » The Republican dilemma: Would dumping Trump be worth the ha
I suspect that if I'd said there was an overlap, you'd have said of course there's an overlap and insulted me in the same way. Most or all of the offshore magic circle firms boast of operating not just in one of the big money-laundering jurisdictions in the British sphere, but in several. It's obvious they need connections… -
Re: The Met has got this very wrong and something has to change to make women feel the streets are safe
A perceptive pair of comments. The Precautionary Principle is now a rhetorical construct used when an evidenced-based case cannot be made, but where irrational doubt needs to be made to sound respectable. That is a Green (and green) speciality. @NickPalmer , I think the EU process is more than over-cautionary reactions.… -
Re: PB Predictions Competition 2025 – The Entries – politicalbetting.com
This is a needless argument. Atheroma is caused by high cholesterol and fatty matter in the arteries. It is hardened by calcium, which precipitates out in the same way it does around blockages in drains. It’s one of the more directly fat-caused conditions out there but is still different from the build up of subcutaneous… -

Re: Something does not add up – politicalbetting.com
Because society is risk averse and science lessons are "dangerous". Chemistry labs used to be full of acids, alkalis, carcinogens and toxic substances. Physics labs deal with high voltage electricity, radioactive substances, lasers, etc. Biology might have toxins or animal diseases or animals that bite, sting or attack. So… -
Re: politicalbetting.com » Blog Archive » Will the polling on air strikes against ISIS persuade Dave
Maybe it should. Some people do indeed inhabit what I would regard as a perverse version of this religion but then again I would suggest so do mormons. Mormons do not reflect the general outlook of Christians. One sect of one religion does not equate to the entire group or ethnic grouping. Many Moslem women in Turkey do… -
Re: Some harsh realities on the Monarchy from Prof John Curtice – politicalbetting.com
Yep. You got it, @kyf_100 A fantastic ad taking the form of possibly the biggest parade of capdoffing ever, all presented as if it's dignified. There's no respect at the top towards the proles here. Proles are essentially seen as oxygen thieves. There's not even any respect from the uneducated petty bourgeoisie either… -
Re: politicalbetting.com » Blog Archive » Will Jim Murphy arrest Labour’s slide in the Scottish pol
There is no difference at all. With both words it is the context in which the word is used. If its a sarcastic comment about rich former working class people in a comfortable suburban enclave that is one thing. If it is used to insult an individual public servant of lower status than the person saying it, it is quite… -

They define what's prohibited for inmates in the law: (a) Surgical procedures that sterilize, including, but not limited to, castration, vasectomy, hysterectomy, oophorectomy, orchiectomy, or penectomy; (b) Surgical procedures that artificially construct tissue with the appearance of genitalia that differs from the… -

Re: Hopefully, we’ll see some Lineker polling this weekend – politicalbetting.com
Indeed. The sight of a British prime minister standing behind a lectern with the slogan "Stop the Boats" on it - a deliberate hommage to the style used by Boris Johnson when he urged people to get with the national effort in the fight against an invasive killer virus, but this time it's supposedly undesirable people who… -

Re: Betting on a Tory poll lead in September – politicalbetting.com
It's not amazing. It's psychological warfare. You won't deepen your understanding of it if you stay amazed. I have not watched the video and I will not watch it either. But the use of the hat and the use of colour in the form of the gloves suggests that someone has learnt from the recent use of PW by Daesh in the conflict… -
