Trying to understand why the Lib Dems aren’t doing better in the polls

23/11/2017 TSE Comments 0 Comment

The Lib Dems are still paying the price for being hollowed out in local government during the coalition years. One of the mysteries of current politics for me is how badly the Lib Dems are doing in the polls. Since the general election every opinion poll bar one has the Lib Dems polling in the single digits when the current political terrain should be fertile for them. With Brexit being so polarising I’d have thought the only staunchly GB wide…

#Budget2017 key points: ?Blue tie was odds-on, costs Ladbrokes money.?Chancellor uses loads of BuzzwordBingo phrases, costs Ladbrokes money.?Chancellor says "Economicky" at 16/1, costs Ladbrokes money.?Ladbrokes Political desk's Christmas Party cancelled. ?? — Ladbrokes Politics (@LadPolitics) November 22, 2017 Looking to recoup their losses from their disastrous buzzword bingo market Ladbrokes have put up a couple of new markets. The 6/4 on Philip Hammond looks good as budget seems to be received across the Tory party, but that includes praise from…

TELEGRAPH main story #tomorrowspaperstoday pic.twitter.com/lqkbGX0WUj — Helen Miller (@MsHelicat) November 21, 2017 Which will be in better shape this time tomorrow, Philip Hammond’s Budget or England’s Ashes defence? — James Forsyth (@JGForsyth) November 22, 2017 Is Hammond or McDonnell best for the country? Over two thirds don't know. With #Budget2017 just about to start, it's fair to say neither the Chancellor nor the Shadow Chancellor are winning the battle for public opinion – even among their own voters. pic.twitter.com/6X94JVnHn9 —…

Today’s budget buzzword bingo

22/11/2017 TSE Comments 0 Comment

Ladbrokes have put up their customary Budget buzzword bingo, I’m avoiding this market as nothing leaps out as value and I really don’t fancy contributing to the Ladbrokes Christmas bonus fund. Ladbrokes also have a market up on the colour of Philip Hammond’s tie, this is another market I’m going to avoid for the same reasons. There is one bet that does intrigue me and I think is worth a few pounds, 16/1 on Ken Clarke to fall asleep during…

Deal or no deal

21/11/2017 TSE Comments 0 Comment

Why I can’t see a deal being agreed before the 1st of April 2019 Ladbrokes have a market up on a few Brexit related markets, out of these three I’m quite keen to take the 6/4 on there being no Brexit deal being agreed before the 1st of April 2019. My logic behind this is that for a long time I’ve had the feeling that 2 years to do a deal is practically impossible even for a competent government with…
