My wife tells me every year she picked the National winner. She's never won a penny.
Mr Peterboat put his money where his mouth was, whether we agree or not.

I now wish I could leave the planet.... Unfortunately our narrowboat isn't equipped for interstellar travel. :-( I think they now need to give up. This two-hundred-and-forty-year experiment in self-rule began with the best of intentions, but I think we can all agree that it didnβt end well...

Yes but it's not really hard to predict important election results theses days. Is it? just go with the opposite of what opinion polls and the bookies are saying and you will be correct. Hell I even called this one correctly and actuall did say on CWDF months before Brexit that the remainers needed to be less cock sure about the outcome than lots were being. But Martin you have to put money on it. I wanted Brexit to happen, this result did bother me as I thought neither suitable for the job, although I disliked Clinton more, even though I like Bill her husband. As it happens Trump has said we will be at the front of line for trade deals and this result will be making sooooooo many MPs sick at what they had planned to do, so its a win win deal for me. Indeed i was referring to the notion of what you personally want to happen and what you would vote for compared to predicting what actually will happen. It's not rocket science to predict critical election/referendum results these days, just use the measure I suggested.

The usual course of events in an election is to pretend you're nice and turn out to be a wanker?
Here we have a man who surely can't fail to turn out to be more positive than his campaign would suggest.
Hat's off to a man who knows politicians are clever liars, realised he was ideally suited to be a politician and instead of creating subterfuge just went for it, seemingly trying really hard never to tell the truth. Beat them at their own game by being an honest liar? Lol
To make a vague comparison with forum life, it's better to be an arse on a forum and turn out to be OK in real life, than pretend to be nice and turn out to be an arse.

Seems some people have been voting after the event. At about 8:30 this morning (after the results were in) the poll showed 50% for each contestant. Now it is 44.44% and 55.56%.
I dunno, the things some people will do to be on the winning idea.

As for getting the Mexicans to build and pay for a wall along the border, my mind's eye is picturing an ornamental wall about 18" high.
