    The Conservative Party has become very good at atracting self-interested riff-raff. Everything has a best-before date.

    Sunak bettered Starmer if you think they were brawling. Starmer was trying to raise the level of debate above the gutter, with no support from a very ineffective moderator who, typical BBC at the moment, was petrified of saying even a gentle 'boo' to the Tory goose.

    Constantly talking over someone and interrupting them doesn’t exactly make that half pant tosser “bettering Starmer (as woeful as he was at the debate).

    If the bookies are stupid enough to lay these types of bets then that is their problem.

    The bookies hate to pay out winning bets and complain to the Gambling Commission over their own incompetence.

    They are just another company that want to protect their bottom line and there is no doubt individuals are profiting from leaking this information as well.

    The only reason the PM did so well in his debate with Keir Starmer is because the BBC debate host did which a terrible job.

    They lie in desperation because they have not got the guts to admit that they have all been caught out as distrustful liars, spreading far and wide from the PM to the weakest of MPs. We shall soon rejoice and count the record number of seats that have been lost in the Conservative Party when figures are released, and personally I could not give a hoot as who may win this election, but will be in great joy to hear of the demise of Conservatism for years to come with record losses which will go down in history as the most corrupt party ever to govern our country.

    Are you watching the debates on a Valve set with the sound off? Sunak Lied and is a laughable debater.
    They are not cashing in on the Election they are cashing in on limited access to information, that is the abuse of Power and Position.
    The Cloud of deceit is over EVERY Tory candidate and spreads out to their families.
    Sunak is a Disaster Capitalist, a Digital Mugger and he taints everything he touches, same as Johnson.
    Observe the nation past and present and compare the results, in the future you will see this last 15 years taught in political science classes.

    Sigh, another day another crime. It's pointless to think in terms of morality, ethics or standards when talking about this foul crew; as far as they're concerned, they're only for little people. They have only two priorities: grabbing as much cash as they can by any means they see fit and not paying any taxes which again, are only for little people.
    We've had pirates in charge for 14 years and the saddest thing is that we've become so used to crime being the accepted order of the day, it no longer looks like we can do any better.

    I'm surprised it's not illegal to bet against yourself in a competition. After all if you can in anyway influence the outcome of a competition you shouldn't be allowed to bet on it. By the way I can't agree Sunak won the debate yesterday, he was rude, arrogant and told provable lies a number of times.

    Wrong. It is illegall and immoral. If Sunak did any better than Keir it was because it was fixed. Sunak was reading his answe prepped by the BBC or leaked. That the audience had to Read their questions from a card is at best dubious. The BBC rather than going to the format of audience and interviewer only each in turn that produced a far better debate chose to repeat their failed first debate format. A professor of journalism elucidated how Johnson had put his Tory people in to take over the BBC's Politics division two years ago. With other such takeovers in the country. 'Rob' was a Reform Plant. But yes Starmer 'is the best the country has' while Sunak 'is the worst.' See "Led By Donkeys' reveal of his and his wife's multiple corruptions. On Reform see ByLine Times '4 Questions for Farage' and their examination and Led by Donkeys exam of Farage's history. Absolutely sure this 'Profossor' is a Tory prerending to be even handed–he is not. Also give his game away in the vile Far Right, racist, homo-phobic trans-phobic people he respects even admires. His pretence of no longer supporting these figures–when he does–of Brexit is false to the back-teeth. .

    Davies' bet, whether it was to win or lose, is obviously not illegal, nor is there any question of it not being ethical or moral. He was not privy to privileged information.
    Such bets are private, so had there not been the bets placed on the date of the election and investigations, no one would have known or cared about Davies.
    One can certainly make a judgement about the wisdom of doing such a thing, given that his action might have come out eventually and been judged adversely.
    There is always a strong likelihood of individuals, politicians, the media, etc taking a pompous, hypocritical, self-righteous stance where it suits them and/or their employer, but it is risible for politicians to be held to subjective standards that the ordinary citizen isn't.
    The ordinary citizen conveniently "forgets" about his own misdemeanors, such as continuously raiding the stationery cupboard, padding expenses for all they are worth, taking "sickies" to suit, driving "slightly" over limit, "inadvertently" speeding to suit, accepting overpayments in change, overclaiming on insurance cover, lying whenever it is expedient – the list is endless!

    Professor, further thoughts on the gambling scandal. I suppose we should be greatful that instead of trying to enrich themselves by wagering on the outcome of a race for poor dumb animals. Whereas they are wagering on the outcome of well paid/rich dumb wannabe mp's

    Surely it is the same as insider dealing which I thought it was illegal. £8k bet is also laughing at the British Public who often do not even have that to live on for a year. Not fit to hold their jobs sack them all – and prevent them from being involved in anything really.

    Sunak and his cohorts are mired in the stink and the stench of scandal and corruption, This Government has behaved as if they're in the movie "Wall St" where "greed is good". A week from now they will be gone, a footnote in the history of British politics. Phillip Davies is another non entity who next week will hopefully will be gone, his snout no longer in the trough and hopefully so will his wife.
