Hi brother Iām going to get that coffee maker you recommend but forget which model? Any help please 
This is ours - itās lasted 6 years without fault so far and is great. Also available in black. Only downside is the grinderās a bit noisy. But at the price itās incredible value.

If it wasnāt available Iād get the nearest equivalent De Longhi. Let me know what you do.

Not the most liquid market just yet, but this seems worth posting for the record.
Hereās the Sporting Index spread on election seats:
Tories projected to get around 320, Labour around 210. FYI a majority would be 326 (though with Sinn Fein not taking seats, 322 would be an effective majority). Hereās the fun part: Labourās total seats on Betfair.
Again this market in particular has very little liquidity, but even with reasonable adjustments the numbers are clearly all over the place.
Worth pointing out the results from 2017:
Con: 317
Lab: 262
SNP: 35
Lib: 12
DUP: 10
Sinn Fein: 7
Plaid: 4
Green: 1
Ind: 1
Speaker: 1
UKIP: 0
Nick Clegg - canāt think of many people Iāve been more disappointed with over the last few years. I thought he was one of the good guys.
Dominic Cummings brother-in-law was the Director of the Firtash Foundation. You know that Dimitri Firtash ā the mafia chieftain linked to Manafort, Giuliani, Parnas, Fruman, Putin & Semion Mogliviech.

Donāt like the weird cut to a mid-shot in the middle of it, otherwise solid, imo. Donāt remember a Labour leader ever talking about the press like that, only just about old enough to remember Smith/the end of Kinnock, though.

This would have been better in the 2+2 forum where more of the brexit ****heads run around.

Just that when an extreme regime wins power itās a natural reaction to want the opposition to combat it from the opposite side of the political horse shoe, but because whatās happened is the Overton window has shifted towards the bad end of things you should be prepared to make more compromises in your choice of political leaders than are ideal.
Our American friends here are almost unanimously supporting Sanders or Warren for the Dem candidacy (as am I policy-wise) and seem resolutely against moderate candidates like Buttigieg or Bloomberg because they seem like washouts (which they largely are) and arenāt a strong enough antidote to Trump, when really the situation there is so dire that they should probably get behind whichever candidate they think offers the greatest chance of getting rid of Trump.
cf Thatcher. In hindsight weād have been better off in 1983 with a centrist Labour leader like Healey/Shore/Jenkins/Owen than the idealistic and popular with party loyalists but low electoral-appeal Foot.
If this all sounds a bit Blairite thatās because it probably is, and thereās not much else I agreed with him about other than the pressing need to bin the Tories.

Implementing Thatcherite policies to own the Tories. Classic Tone.
