If the bookies actually thought rationing or privatisation would be a possible outcome within the next three months they’d be offering odds on “nothing”. This is just standard paddy power viral marketing. Still funny though

This is just standard paddy power viral marketing. I don't think you understand how specials betting works. By definition a specials bet is long odds because it's something that's unlikely, but it has to be something that's within the realms of possibility or there'd be no market for it. Nobody's offering a market on whether the sun will rise in the west tomorrow. Also on broad non-exclusive markets like those two I posted there's no point in offering a lay because the odds will be way too short for anyone to be interested. If you absolutely must, I'm sure you could find an exchange that would let you lay that bet, but I'm pretty sure you'd need to put up several grand before your winnings round down to zero. Although you're right to say specials often used for marketing purposes, this pre-dates Paddy Power by decades if not centuries. Bookies were offering odds on the Loch Ness Monster being captured before WWI.

It’s good to promote the narrative that this poo poo is extremely unpopular with a lot of people.

So, um, the Italian newspaper site I follow is claiming that Boris has successfully prorogued your parliament. I'm assuming by the lack of hundred of pages of revolutionary organization in this thread that this didn't happen yet and the editor got it wrong. On a scale of 0 to , how bad prorogation would be?

TACD posted:I agree but it’s also totally meaningless when paired with the narrative that extremely unpopular poo poo has been happening for years, the media is complicit, and the public are totally cowed and submissive and will perform no physical actions in the real world that could possibly support their views If this was really true we would have Brexited already.
