Hmm, yes I've just now looked and odds of that are about even money, so that explains the other Brexit related odds. A scary situation as these elections can be unpredictable, but at least it's another shot at getting some kind of unassailable majority instead of this endless deadlock sh!te. Boris vs Corbyn is at least a contest somewhat reflective of the parties they represent, whereas May vs Corbyn wasn't.

Saw the tail end of the Newsnight interview with Dominic Grief last night. He said that the problems that we are in at the moment are because of the Article 50 being triggered too early. He may actually have a point here but the Government having started it and him being a Conservative MP surely he should have done everything possible, given his considerable experience (ex Attorney General and QC) to assist in getting the best negotiated deal in line with the democratic vote. Instead he has seemingly used this experience to run a separate agenda intent on blocking Brexit ("BB" and as I can see be the leader of it.

If anyone else saw the interview was he asked what he has done to help the agreement get done, if so what was his answer?

I doubt given that it was a BBC (Brexit Blocking Corporation) programme he would have been asked this.

Also, when he was asked would he vote for the Conservative party in a General Election he said it "depended what the manifesto said" ....there's loyalty for you and a defector about to spring off the blocks!

Bring back Brolin

I'm sure they do, but I well understand that even money means a 50% chance. The stated odd from the 'money where your mouth is' crowd, is that an election this year is certainly not an unlikely scenario in any sense of the word.

I'm saying that the looming possibility of a GE is impacting odds of other events such as the withdrawal of article 50, which outside of a GE context would surely be very unlikely to take place.

Yep.....it's the establishment punishing its opponents using criteria which could be subjectively applied to many other situations.

The word is cheques and the fat scruffy cvnt can barely support his own trousers.

Yes Corbyn is a c**t and scruffy but not fat.
How can you run a country when you're a morbidly obese chancer like Johnson ? What a low point in our history.

Have to say I judge people by their weight. Pretty decent barometer. Winston Churchill did quite well mind.

Poor old Father Christmas isn't welcome down your chimney then.

Jimmy Carr had that good joke about fat people:

A women said 'you're fattest'.....so I said, 'no I'm not you're fattest'.

Sycophantic bender.

Totally agree. Interestingly though, in Border Force they can recruit but not retain. This is mainly due to awful shift patterns, p*** poor management and lack of any wage rises. It really is a false economy as they spend thousands on training but fail to address the retention issues
