Re: More polls like this and a January 2025 election will be nailed on – politicalbetting.com
Her "mates" were continually talking about IR35 so that was the focus of personal tax reform rather than anything sensible. Now I don't like IR35 but it's required because I know removing it would push a lot of lower pay industries that compete on price into utterly false self-employment methods to save a few pennies.… -

Re: The second coming of John Swinney – politicalbetting.com
The common cold is not one virus, but a range of different viruses. Indeed, often when you have a cold, you are infected with more than one type of virus. Rhinoviruses are the most common cause, but coronaviruses are also involved. Indeed, as I omitted from my earlier post, other sorts of virus can also be involved,… -

Wouldn't Finchley see a larger than usual Tory to Labour swing in the next general election due to the removal of the Corbyn effect? Mike Freer only got 44% in 2019, he's not standing at the next election, even if there was no national swing to Labour, surely Finchley is nailed on Labour gain? -

Re: The pressure could be back on Sunak – politicalbetting.com
Given that just about everyone on a bike has on them a GPS equipped device (phone), they already have a speedometer. How many have a mounting bracket on the handlebars for their phone? It’s not hard to detect when you are doing more than the speed limit - it is quite noticeable when you are going faster than the cars. -

@Ghedebrav I am genuinely surprised you think bathing is the most important activity to do naked. I mean, it's not something that overly affects me as an asexual, but I understand shagging is considered marginally more important by most... -
Re: About that inevitable Labour landslide – politicalbetting.com
You're right to say the margin is with hindsight a key piece of evidence as to the value of a bet. Esp a bet struck close in time to the event. -

Re: A grim election night so far for the Tories – politicalbetting.com
@DougSeal In case nobody has answered, the last time we had four PMs in one Parliament was 1865-68 - Palmerston (died) Russell (voted out) Derby (retired) Disraeli (lost election). I think the record is five, from 1780-84 - North, Rockingham, Shelburne, Portland and Pitt. -
Re: MRP benchmarks and assorted thoughts – politicalbetting.com
Agree that the potential impact of tactical voting this time is significant. But Labour Centrists may be making the same mistake as the Tories about thinking they can piss off elements of their vote but that they will return when needed. Starmer will need the centre-left after the first term when the swing vote begins to… -

Re: Letting ‘I dare not” wait upon ‘I would,’Like the poor cat i’ the adage – politicalbetting.com
What people who say "the SNP may be falling apart, but support for independence is still strong" fail to accept is that there is no other real party of independence. The practical steps that lead to separation and the break up of the UK requires a clear majority to vote for it in both the Scottish Parliament and in… -
