Re: Why don’t old people like dinosaurs? – politicalbetting.com
And the US elected Trump, who appointed Gaetz. Sadly, this is the world we now live in. -
Re: The end of the enlightenment – politicalbetting.com
From both of your links, and in the absence of further evidence, I'm with darkage on this. Particularly worrying is the claim that this individual needed to be jailed to deter others. It may well be that the individual concerned was filmed attacking police etc but if he was just chanting offensive things there's no way he… -
Re: There is bad news for the forces of antidisestablishmentarianism – politicalbetting.com
I'm sort of with Gamaliel the Elder on this one, whilst wishing devastation on Musk. This morning I saw the first of the major Ukraine focused Youtuber I follow switching to BlueSky - that is Ukraine Matters. The Special Kherson Cat is still on twitter. -
Re: Voters rate Badenoch as worse than Truss – politicalbetting.com
On the RFK appointment quite a lot of the saner young right wing YouTubers my other half likes are very keen on him. They don't mention vaccines but they like his public health focus (fitness etc) and his antipathy to what they cal big pharma. In a country where very hairy prescription meds are advertised on TV you can see… -

Re: That’s Life? – politicalbetting.com
There is a narrow band of public sector roles in the regions (e.g. Newcastle and particularly NI) where pay is very favourable vs the market. But that’s a policy choice made by successive Governments to transfer wealth. In general, public sector salaries are at least 20-25% less than private sector ones, representing the… -
Re: Just one in sixteen have a favourable opinion on Welby – politicalbetting.com
Our thermostat was set to 17, but when I checked it with a thermometer it turned out the thermostat was poorly calibrated, and it was actually about 20. -
Re: Sauce for the goose – politicalbetting.com
Tale care with that. Our media are fishing for juicy nuggets without giving a complete picture, and their concern is named people hanging on media gibbets, plus sensational stories. It always is. Concern for victims, and prevention of future repeat events, which should be first, always comes second. "Church leaders" in… -
Re: Politics is back – politicalbetting.com
I believe you're somewhat overestimating the support those countries can offer. Iran has almost nothing other than some limited capacity to make drones. NK can manufacture low-tech stuff like artillery shells but they have basically a backwards 1950s level economy. They'll take food and technology in return for ammo, which… -

Re: The (lack of) incumbency bonus – politicalbetting.com
That's a good point, the wet market and lab theories are not mutually exclusive. It's quite possible a lab worker went shopping with a snotty nose and it spread from there -
Re: Split ticketing is still real – politicalbetting.com
In the case of Kamala, as a centre left man, I found she did her best to tell people like me not to vote for her. I can totally see why people stayed at home. -

The UK is one of the few countries where young people are still mostly left-voting, as they were in the 1960s/70s in most places.
