Re: Trump as Corbyn, Biden as May, and Harris as Johnson? – politicalbetting.com
She was supposed to be a good speaker, but - as you point out - she's either terrible at explaining her position or has crazy radical positions that she's too weak to actually defend when challenged. So she loses support from the centre for the radical views and, presumably, from the frothing edges because she seems to… -
Re: Why you shouldn’t rely on Rasmussen polls – politicalbetting.com
Traitor's apron? Old boy, this isn't the Daily Mail here. Also a very large number of people are now pro EU, having learned who the Leavers actually are. A large majority of the under 50s for one. You may be fighting a losing battle, and anyway, being in the same trench with Farage may look pretty foolish, at best, before… -

No I'm not. My point was that those with a GRC can (at least presumptively) access the other toilet. I didn't mention self-id. -

They could divert some of the gazillions they spend on London up north and improve things no end -
Re: Will Ed Miliband’s time finally arrive? – politicalbetting.com
But they are not the rules for politicians. The Telegraph et al were certainly not suggesting they should be the rules over the last 14 years. I would like a cap on political donations but Starmer et al taking some football tickets or a room in a flat for a couple of weeks is nothing different to what PMs have done over my… -

Why? Please detail your thoughts, especially in context of the Twitter purchase. -
Re: Love’s Labour’s Lost – politicalbetting.com
Many will get far more on dole rather than working. Rent paid, council tax paid and a tax free wedge on top with likely lots of other things, especially if a few children -
Re: Sausage Party Conference – politicalbetting.com
Prefab housing, built in factories and trucked to site for final assembly. 3-bed house costs £100k, plus the land and site works. The obstacles are that they need to be either mortgageable, or buyable by housing associations or public sector on the basis of a 50-year lifespan. -

Re: The State of the Union, Week 4 – politicalbetting.com
Sure - Bull was firing rocket assisted projectiles into space in the 50s. The problem is that by the time you are looking at an orbital capable projectile, most of your payload is rocket motor. And then the payload has to be resistant to the forces. The Babylon Gun was going to have payload to LEO of maybe 50kg -
Re: Jenrick remains the strong favourite – politicalbetting.com
Bollocks we would learn by ourselves indeed many do, the thing holding many back from studying by ourselves to get a better job is the banhammers who hoarde certification unless you fall for the uni scam -
Re: Donald Trump and knocking up the voters – politicalbetting.com
I was pretty much a lone voice on here in pointing out the absurdity of the media demanding, and politicians promising, all the RAAC schools to be rebuilt or buildings closed immediately and indefinitely, when it has led to zero deaths, and we only had the capacity to refurb 50 schools per year. It is clearly an unwelcome… -

Re: This should cause Jenrick problems but will it? – politicalbetting.com
Speaking as a non-English person (though of about 50% English descent), I like think about an everyday Englishness which encompasses a real variety of experience that is perhaps mostly unified by a sense of character or temperament - and a “deep” Englishness, which I find is best summoned by staring at the faded flag of… -

Thanks for the report. Do I take it from your phrasing that you are against moving away from Net Zero to protect (what's left of) our industrial base? Why? -

Re: A basket of unfavourables – politicalbetting.com
I think he is a worthless unattractive self-promoter but to be scrupulously fair to him, I think he is getting a lot of undeserved hate as a result of the English class system. Posho hate because he is an oik and oik hate because he has pulled himself up into an apparently posho position in the legal system. The paradigm…
