My oner looks like...Win Win Lose Pending...for 30k. pending is a draw tonight, doesn't matter now. Very painful 3 hours of football last night. 600 to cash out before the game.

This always cheers me up. Al Murray too fat for an election publicity sky-dive standing against Farage last year. Facing the press, shunning metric for the standard british pie.

skin. And what's wrong with looking like Mr Bean?.

warbaby, any serious polling of the population would have shown that the betting market in no way reflected the likely voting intentions in my region. Indeed the national polls were showing a closer outcome than what the betting was indicating. Well done with backing your convictions with hard cash.
It amuses me that when an MP is questioned he or she will often trot out the line '...when I meet with my constituents on the doorstep they tell me...etc'. Really? Do the people that represent us really seek our opinions to the extent that they claim they do?

"a woman walked into a London betting shop and bet £100,000 on a Remain result"

Ah, the London groupthink factor - if everybody I know and everybody I speak to says Remain, then that's what it will be.

"The Long View" column on the back page of the FT yesterday headed "Red faced experts survey the wreckage of their forecasts" was interesting with one nugget therein providing an explanation of why the constantly cited bookmakers' odds (75% - 25% by the end) might have misled the political commentators. It was that while the weight of money determines the odds, in actual fact more bets were placed on Leave. Doubly satisfying, therefore, when Big London money gets it so wrong and the "shilling to win" provincial punters get it right.

Personally, when the polls at the end of May give Remain a double figure lead and Betfair has Leave at 4/1, I remember the Damon Runyon story "A Nice Price" and the wisdom of Sam the Gonoph "nothing between human beings is one to three. In fact, I long ago come to conclusion that all life is six to five against." More than enough a prompt for me to stick a hundred quid on Leave.

Am I losing the plot?
Are both Farage and Gove trying to look like Mr Bean?

[jacks13] 02/7/2016 13:38

Perhaps the bookmakers' odds compilers should also take note given the recent example of what turned out to be an even money chance being priced at 5/1 on or shorter. Punters were confidently handing over their pound coins in eager expectation of winning all of 20p or less. Apparently a woman walked into a London betting shop and bet £100,000 on a Remain result, the first bet of her entire life she later said. (What, no Grand National flutters?) It'll likely be her last. She believed, along with a lot of professional and amateur forecasters, that the bookies are never wrong and so thought it was a free hit. An example of the inefficient market hypothesis perhaps?

The dirt is the dire consequences he proffered as a result of "Brexit" PLUS, believe it or believe it not ............. HIGHER INTEREST RATES almost on the very Friday after the vote!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, yes I know it's only a week in so to early to tell maybe but remember a week is a long time in politics ......... Boris is testament to that mantra!

Try Youtube, Stefan Mo;lyneux's many vids on Brexit and other stuff!

Personally, I think Carney is doing a very good job.

[jacks13] 01/7/2016 15:13

In politics, and Carney is effectively part of the political machine, I don't think it is necessary to be a nice or a likeable person. Gove said something along those lines this morning; that being respected for one's ability trumps popularity. I know almost nothing about Carney's background other than he is Canadian and was the Canadian Bank Governor but I've been impressed by both his recent public interventions, yesterday's and last Friday's, although I acknowledge that neither were likely to have been entirely on his own initiative.

What's the dirt on him last throw?

[warbaby43] 01/7/2016 15:04

Who, in conjunction with that poisonous snide Osborne who appointed him, appears to be conducting a campaign to create as difficult a climate as possible with the predictable assistance of the BBC.

is the communist party headhunting at the moment, Joe? : )

Everybody headhunts highly skilled workers. It was ever thus and will remain so. Maybe somebody will headhunt Mark Carney.

[kevjones2] 01/7/2016 13:15

Word on the newspaper business sections street is that EU and USA companies will be head-hunting many of the best foreign UK workers. Someone tweeted last night about how it's a disgrace --- dem foreigners coming in and taking our..well..our foreigners.

[slepy] 01/7/2016 10:21

As a foreigner living in the UK for over 10 years, I am completely shocked of what happened, and what is happening now in the government. Tried not to listen to all of it but it is a hard task when it is affecting me so much. I think Boris should be ashamed of himself. Coward IMO. Yesterday I look at AEX and Sp is below 1p after the decent news about KN.
£53k down now. Simply fed up.

[jacks13] 01/7/2016 09:59

Heseltine is amusing. Laying into Boris for bringing the apocalypse down onto our heads. He might consider aiming is wrath at poor Dave, after all he did play a very strong hand remarkably ineptly. But then Dave might say it was actually George that was to blame. Safer to stick with Corbyn for being a pinko closet Leaver.

[blackgold00] 01/7/2016 09:48

yes, but the question is, what will the new norm look like?

[skinwalker] 01/7/2016 09:38

Jacks, yes I know. I could have saved us all this trouble. Poor Dave, decent enough but a little naive (and not too bright).
I'm longing for normal service to be resumed - it can't come quickly enough!

[jacks13] 01/7/2016 09:30

skin, you should have taken Dave to one side and given him some sound advice on the giving of a say to the great unwashed British public. The trick as we all know is to give the impression, but importantly only the impression, that they actually have a say. Indeed, they are not actually to have any say in what they are allowed to say.
I expect normal service to be resumed pretty damned sharpish.
