Good News.

[gulliver1]

Labour opens up it's largest lead in the opinion polls since Boris became PM .
As Keir Starmer jumps way ahead of Boris ... after Boris told even more lies at PMQs Today.
......Oh dear not good news for the Cons though....is it.

Naomi// Gully. do you have any hobbies\\\\/
He has one main hobby, known as trolling.

[anneasquith]

Ttt. Are any of your post at all relevant to the OP ?

[gulliver1]

Was there a staff party at no 10...Yes or No ......
..No said Boris.... but they did obey covid rules...?????..Pinocchio at it again.

jim; "It's pretty clear at this point that gulliver isn't going to take the bet. Nor is he obliged to --not everyone wants to gamble, and there's no obligation to take any offered bet. I'd encourage you to drop the offer from now on, TTT. " - well it just indicates that he doesn't even support his own opinion Jim. Thanks for the advice but that's how you deal with paper tigers continually banging on about something that they won't even back themselves. So get used to me offering a bet.

[ToraToraTora]

anne: "Ttt. Are any of your post at all relevant to the OP ? " - THE most relevant, I am trying to determine if the OP backs his own opinions. It's very clear that he does not.

[ToraToraTora]

How can someone expect others to agree with a view if they don't even agree with their own view?

[bobbinwales]

Its gonna get very boring if its isnt allready if you keep asking for a bet, links etc when you know theres not gonna be one. Why not ask gulliver instead why he calls you TGT

[THECORBYLOON]

TORATORATORA, you have made your point more than once so why not drop it?

[jim360]

There are other ways to express support for your own opinions than by putting money on them.

You've had your answer (or, at the very least, we've established that gulliver has no interest in answering). There's no need to continually ask the same question.

[THECORBYLOON]

Will you be asking everyone you disagree with to accept bets?

[bobbinwales]

//but they did obey covid rules...?????.//
Not as odd as your suggesting though since it is a place of work where a 100 or so people gather everyday and people come and go.

bob: "Its gonna get very boring if its isnt allready if you keep asking for a bet, links etc when you know theres not gonna be one." - I won't get bored, That's how you expose paper tigers.
" Why not ask gulliver instead why he calls you TGT " - has anyone ever got anything in the way of clarification out of him? ever? I don't really care TBH he can call me what he likes.

If Gully really does have the utmost belief in his own opinion, then rather than take your bet, TTT, he would most likely avail himself of the 7/4 currently on offer from some firms.

[ladybirder]

Ha! Gully doesn't do that of course, day in day out.

[ladybirder]

That was to Jim.

[naomi24]

LB, odd how some can express their opinions in their own way .... and others are castigated for doing exactly the same thing.

[anneasquith]

Another thread ruined ,

[naomi24]

Anneasquith, considering gully says the same thing day in and day out, were you one of the few to take it seriously in the first place?

[ToraToraTora]

ken: "If Gully really does have the utmost belief in his own opinion, then rather than take your bet, TTT, he would most likely avail himself of the 7/4 currently on offer from some firms. " - well yes but this isn't primarily about the bet it's about gauging someone's confidence in their own view. Done it all my life with idiots shooting their mouth off. They go very quiet when asked to back their own view with their own money. It really just serves to expose their true feelings. Gully knows that Labour can't win but he chooses to post BS like this N times a day. When challenged it all goes very quiet.

[jim360]

There's a difference between repeatedly posting about someone/something not on AB, and repeatedly doing the same thing about a member of the site. Gulliver's continual posts about the Tories and Johnson may be seen as tedious, but they're manifestly not in the same category as someone constantly asking him a question that he's not obliged to answer, and then constantly getting criticised for not doing so.

There's no link between not placing a money bet and not believing your own opinion. So it's a completely manufactured criticism. Anyone wishing to take TTT's bet is free to do so, of course, but anyone who doesn't want to shouldn't have to in order to somehow "prove" their sincerity.
