Bullshit. How can a referee referee a game without ever drawing the attention of the players?

Tories forced out a Tory speaker because he wasn't Brexity enough and got a Labour speaker as replacement. lol

Johnson lying again. Sending out letters with edited quotes, and claiming the NHS will not be used as a bargaining chip for a US trade deal. Nobody can trust a word he says. Possibly why he’s been kept from public appearances and difficult interviews - because his minders suspect he’ll just blurt o...

Amazing really that they had the nerve to base their campaign in such bullshit. And then and then accuse others of project fear. Accuse the other side of what you're doing and then when they accuse you of it it just looks like mud-slinging. It's a pretty simple tactic used to undermine political di...

Perhaps the report implies that Russia had been able to manipulate the vote (hacking), regardless of how people voted in this country. I doubt it's as direct as something like changing the vote.

Correct, if you simply divide 100 by 15% And then times the result by 15% you will not get 100. You mean subtract 15% and then add 15%, i assume. And you're correct, subtracting 15% from 100 gives you 85 but adding 15% to 85 only gives you 97.75 A workaround to this that i find easier to understand...

I tested your method by using really easy numbers like 'Imagine the Burnley electorate was 100, and imagine there was only two parties...

I think perhaps the dictionary definition of "lie" should be redefined as "does not agree with imploding turtle's opinion". My opinion is that Labour's suggested referendum is rigged. You disagree.

No proof so far of him asking for any favor in exchange for military aid unlike Biden who was stupid enough to admit it in front of the cameras. A lot more to come on Ukraine yet.

Burnley voted 66.6% leave, which is 28.35% higher than the 51.89% national average. So take the 30% Labour leave vote, increase it by 28.35%, and you get 38.5% of Labour voters in Burnley voted leave. Turtle calculated that one. Similarly: Burnley voted 33.4% remain, which is 30.58% lower than the ...

Yes, but Labour's vote is rigged so that you can't vote against the EU.

Thanks for the mention. The more you explain it in detail, the more glaring the error is. Never mind, you threw in "bias" and "weighted" to make it look learned. That will convince most people.
