With a batch of phone polls on the way LEAVE punters might be wise to defer their bets

With a batch of phone polls on the way LEAVE punters might be wise to defer their bets

By the same token REMAIN backers should act now It’s becoming very apparent that the sequencing of polls by mode is having a a big impact on expectations about the outcome and, of course, the betting. When, like now, online surveys are coming out regularly but their are few phone ones then the prospects for OUT look better which is reflected in the betting. LEAVE us better value when phone polls predominate. We are currently in LEAVE high driven, I’d…

Cyclefree on What Do They Mean By That?

Embed from Getty Images “What did he mean by that?” Metternich is reported to have said on hearing of the death of Talleyrand, Napoleon’s wily diplomat. The same question will be asked in the Chancelleries of Europe and elsewhere should Britain vote to leave the EU. But perhaps it is a more pertinent question to ask if Britain votes to remain, especially if the winning margin is narrow – as seems likely – and certainly less than the winning margin…

For those inside the political bubble, whether as practitioners, supporters or lobbyists on the inside, or commentators and observers watching on, it’s easy to forget how little politics matters to an enormous number of people.

A proxy bet for a Leave victory

A proxy bet for a Leave victory

Comments 0 Comment

Brexit might kill Scottish nationalism stone dead the same way devolution did. Sometimes when you think the value on a particular bet has gone, and you have to look for a proxy bet elsewhere, with with the best price on Leave winning at 13/5 perhaps the backing the 5/1 on the next Scottish independence referendum happening before 2020 could be a good proxy bet. Alex Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon have been saying on several occasions, “Scottish independence would happen within two…
