From the film Zulu, “Your all going to die”

An alternative view is that NATO is moving it's resources to demonstrate to Putin that we will respond to agression ie deterrence.

If Trump were president, war in Gaza and Ukraine would never have happened and we'd have peace all over the world. :lol:

This is not a bad way of trading, every time Trump loses a court case Back him, and then trade out with a profitable Lay bet a few days later. :roll:
I havent been watching too closely, but wouldn't you wanna go the other way around? Lay him before the inevitable court cases? Sell during? Pretty sure he was 2.08 the other day...Like we're not choosing an outcome here, just trying to take advantage of overruns or volatility?

Anyone about to participate in an election should be asked beforehand "Will you accept the result"?
If the answer is "It depends" then they should not be on the ballot.

I posted a low of 2.24 a few days ago but it since got down to 1.99.

The absolute pinnacle of human stupidity is Trump supporter saying "we'll accept the result if we win" and fail to see the irony. :lol:

Obama into 14.

Maybe Biden keels over/drops out.

I think / hope Obama would have a real shot.

Trump said, if he gets back in then 10% import tax across the board.

If true then the UK will be fucked regardless of PM.

Aren't you leaving the UK? So why do you care about the UK? Surely you would be more concerned with Canada's economic relationships.

Help screw the country over by consistently voting for morons and then chip off so you don’t have to deal with the consequences. What an awful specimen.
