Quite a bit of interest in the UK and US elections and any political bets can be discussed here

To get us started bringing a couple of posts over from this weeks rugby thread

Slightly off topic here, but I feel I must advise of my latest master-stroke

Nigel Farage's Reform UK party to win most seats in the UK General election 4th july 2024
3 units @ 34.00 Pokerbet (Labour @ 1.02 / and Tories @ 26.00).

This has never ever been done before by a new political party. And it means that in this event, Nigel will be the new PM.
But the current Torie PM is a liar and a failure, and the Labour Leader is absolutely gormless.

Reform is generating so much that is positive, that the British public have gone from the depths of despair a few months ago to almost jubilation now, and the pollsters are slow to recognize it.

I believe that Nigel is going to win with a landslide.
Here's to Reform UK

LOL - if that is your firm opinion, this price will blow your mind - Reform to win 7 (SEVEN) seats or more is 15/10
and in the market "most seats without labour" they are 3rd fav's at 12/1

Classic!

I honestly don't believe the Democrats ever intended Sleep Joe to stand

South you could be in trouble here, Biden has named Vice President Putin to be on his ticket - a masterful tactic taking his biggest rival out of the race

The worst kept secret has been confirmed - Sleepy Joe is out of the race
