Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Here's a good web site for punters to go mad and place a straight Election bet:

For instance, if you are absolutely certain, that Theresa May will still be the Prime Minister after the General Election, then a £1,000 bet on here will get you a profit of £150 to £160 (x 0.95) - as I type.

As I type, there is currently enough liquidity to place such a bet but I guess it won't necessarily last for ever.

cynic , Ladbrokes this no racist post . if you go in to Ladbrokes in my town centre after 11am you would not get in full of migrants . they do not course any trouble but some do pong a little

i think there were just a few diehards in there, but as i said, it reeked

EL - shows how little i understand about betting shops and odds .... couldn't make much sense of that betfair site

If you think UKIP will get at least one MP elected, you can currently get around 6 (or 7) to 1 at:

Care to bet UKIP will get at least one MP (or won't)?

Time to spent £100 to educate yourself then. Eh, Cynic?

'Beginners Luck' could well kick in.

I agree with Fred about the BBC or at least on TV as I don't listen to the radio. I always find them pretty balanced.

Anyone see Sturgeon the other night on Ask The Leader ? She got a right going over off a Scottish audience about calling for another referendum and her handling of things north of the border.

And what some socialist scum forget when they complain about who owns
the newspapers and the owners political views expressed in their outlook,
is the public have a choice whether to buy that publication or not...

Where as the public are forced to pay a licence fee and do not have a choice,
so the state subsidised bbc should not be run for the liberal lefties, by liberal
lefties...

Just like the Nazis burning Jewish books and literature in WWII, a number of Labour supporters are buying up shed loads of The Sun, The Mail and The Express and 'skipping', 'binning' or even burning them.

Q. Why?
A. These papers are so 'anti-Corbyn' today, so they think, that by doing this it will help keep potential Labour voters on side or at least not send them off to vote Tory.

the newsagents will be very happy indeed :-)

They are trying to keep warm in times of austerity.

Perhaps, they are wishing to martyr Mother Theresa.

Vicky, I am being serious!

diane abbott would sizzle a treat and for far longer than TM :-)

Just trying to manipulate unscrupulously.

Only had Lib , Lab , and Con on my sheet no Ukip , and Freda , lost me there .

Well if the exit poles are correct Theresa is a goner. Get the podium outside no 10 ready.

The fact, that the people prefer Diane Abbott to Theresa May, is sure to give Diane Abbott a rapid and miraculous recovery.

I am sure she will make a marvelous Home Secretary. :-)

'Struth! You can't make this up!

OMG!

So far the swing is not as large as the exit poll on the 3 seats won by the Labour party -

Labour held Newcastle Central with a smaller swing from the Tories, of 2%, than the exit poll suggested 7%

Well hung Parliament , will the knives be out , at least some good news Clegg and Salmond lose seats .

It's a major error when Labour were on it's knees .
