Yes, but this is people all the way from the left to the centre, and they don't win without the centre. The tories don't care about the left, but they do try and play on the heart strings of the working class, with immigration etc. They also have it easier, as they have the older generations...

I think they're doing quite well, for the circumstances (which are extremely tough), and 100x better than the Tories. Just by winning (or not losing) the election they have done well enough in my book, stopping the further rapid decline and reversing it in a lot of instances. They've had no...

A long time to go yet. That's only 7 players, are any of them good enough for a promotion or play-off side? I've only really heard of Riis and Kesler-Hayden. Riss is not good enough (for what we need), he's gone backwards since his fairly good year in 2021. Kesler-Hayden was Preston's best...

Yeah, it would change the way some people vote, but a lot already vote tactically. I mostly look at those voter numbers for each party are basically voting for the opposite of who they like least. If PR came in those Tories and Reform lot aren't going to vote for a left leaning or left party...

Both won't hurt I imagine, that's what I would do. Night before, probably very last thing before sleep, should give more time to sort you out, and might make your sleep be of better quality (that will help no end, as boozed up sleeping for a normal duration ain't worth much).

Is their Nazi lot worse than Reform? I don't know much about them but they seem very rough/ bad. Thing is over here the Tories and Reform lot would almost certainly team up, if the alternative was a Labour centre left/ Greens/ New Corbyn Party. I would hope the lib dems would go against the...

You do realise the "black hole" existed before Labour arrived right? It's probably not £40bn a year, but I guess we'll see. It will depend on policy until the budget. The UK is about £2.8 trillion in debt though, roughly equivalent to a years GDP, and most of that time accruing that debt is...

Yeah, not being boozed or geared up will make a massive difference.

Can't get a better version of this (chart below) as the site is locked out, but it's from John Burn Murdoch of the FT, he's usually reliable and good with data. Effectively previous generations went more Tory as they got richer. Millennials haven't done that. Probably to do with house prices...

Yeah to be fair he was doing up to 20 songs with those, thought it would have been less. This is like ~40 dates though, and a rumoured 25 songs, but I suppose the shows are a lot more spread out than they would be for some others doing stadium tours, or how their tours would have been previous.

Aye, I'm hoping the millennials and generations after going left over time, rather than right, might finally start to change that, but it's going to take a while before those millennials are the largest voting generation. Also assumes they're not going to change course and start to go more...

Ok, not realistically doable. I'd give us maybe a 1 in 20 chance if we went for it, from here, but if we did that then I would say India's chance is ~15 in 20, if we went for it (at some point we're probably not going to want to give them that chance). A lot of our chance isn't even down to us...

Ah yeah I know, he does about 10-30 gigs a year, but what I'm getting at is does he do sets that long/ as many songs? I've not been keeping up with Liam much but have saw Noel a couple of times, think he did like an hour and a half. This might be more like 2.5 hours? All I mean is there's a...

If we can beat the follow on they will score too slow and not declare early enough I think. Not sure if we know how to defend with the bat, and play a game out mind. Should be interesting at least (for the last couple of days).

Haha, you mean putting yourself into a follow on, so you don't have to bat last? Very odd, but I like the idea.
