Re: A closer look at the local elections – politicalbetting.com
... Of course you can tax physical wealth and buildings, and then such people can decide to have their buildings elsewhere. I didn't approve of the actions taken against Russian oligarchs - I don't see how it helps Putin if Russians take their wealth away from Russia and put it in London - if anything forcing them back to… -

Re: Starmer is expected to be better than Johnson et al – politicalbetting.com
Yes, you have a lot of Palestinians and supporters very het up about Gaza etc. and you have a person wearing a Jewish head cap wanting to walk through them. It is almost inevitably going to cause a breach of the peace and very likely result in someone being hurt, most likely the Jewish chap. The general principle is that… -
Re: Street’s ahead – politicalbetting.com
Yes it benefitted you. However when we are paying in a lot which falls on every tax payer then you have to ask the question how many is it benefitting that the rest are paying for. Now from figures I have seen we had about 300,000 went to work in the eu. When 65 million are being charged for their privelege then sorry… -
Re: This could be suboptimal for the SNP in an election year – politicalbetting.com
If Stock is desperate for evidence of that the leftists, educationalists, environmentalists, Tory wets, the legal establishment, the Westminster blob are wrong, perhaps she should leave the house. We are dealing with the economic and social consequences of an unbroken social democrat ascendancy as we speak. -

Re: Understanding Scottish voters – politicalbetting.com
I enjoy old films, but this did absolutely nothing for me. Ok my expectations were high, but I saw nothing special in it whatsoever. I just don't know what all the fuss was about. As I said, the Godfather, on the other hand, didn't fail to impress, as far as I was concerned. I really enjoyed it. I then watched the… -

Re: Floaters and voters – politicalbetting.com
No, Israel respect hard power and we have none. There might be a little bit of being playing to the gallery here too - I suspect in certain parts of his coalition there are decidedly ambivalent attitudes to the British given our "split the difference" attitude of the 1930s and 1940s, and he probably has Irgun sympathisers… -

Re: What are the key races in this round of local elections? – politicalbetting.com
The Ludendorff Offensive might have broken the lines, but the Germans didn’t have the reserves or the logistics to actually win. What it did manage, rather splendidly, was to use up the lions share of what Germany had left. Setting up for the Hundred Days offensive the other way… Some argue that the Ludendorff Offensive… -

Re: What’s this going to do to the May results? – politicalbetting.com
I wonder if the media and many senior politicians somewhat underrate Reform because Reform is so weak in London, and that's where the pundits mostly live? That said, we're now coming across a sprinkling in canvassing but certainly less than 5%. -
