I thought the soviets betrayed spain because they wanted all their gold?

that would be a pretty stupid motive, financially

quote:

The total weapons bill is quite important in assessing whether or not the Spaniards received fair exchange for their gold. The value of the gold sent to Moscow was approximately $518 million. As we have seen, the gold was converted into hard currency and applied toward the purchase of weapons in Russia and other wartime financing in Paris. In 1937 alone, $256 million was transferred from Moscow to the Republic's Eurobank account. 31 Per our estimate above, at least an additional $250 million or more was spent on Soviet arms over the course of the war. If to that $506 million we add at least $70 million and possibly as much as $155 million in loans which were never repaid, it would appear that Moscow could not have turned a monetary profit on the Spanish Civil War. 32

According to electoral calculus, Labour would gain one seat, and the Tories would gain 7. Con majority 26.

I'm legit kind of confused because my assumptions about the electorate's intelligence have plummeted since I've started canvassing. I guess having to explain about ten times to the same woman that UKIP aren't standing does that.

A lot could happen in a few weeks, but, god. Maybe we can at least hope that this proves a left-wing vision for the country is workable and we can have serious left wing candidates instead of designated joke spots.

No, there were a lot of decent things Blair did. The problem was that he was a warmonger and, as a populist centrist didn't really do enough to combat the worst excesses of capitalism/the financial sector.

The flip side of this is that if Labour were polling well, May might have never called the election in the first place.

"Theresa May cut 19,000 police" is big, simple and easy to understand. Especially after an attack that didn't get prevented because a man reported by his own family and friends five time managed to slip through the cracks. Especially when May has staked her entire claim on the phrase "Strong and Stable".
