We couldn’t help ourselves, we bothered to look again at the ridiculous Muppet that is Brina’s Spotted Tamworth page on the offchance he fancied more attention. We are glad we did. This utter tool posted about Tory corruption and winning money illegally, and his linked page shows the headline ‘Labour suspends candidate who bet on Tories to win his seat’. As ever, the dumb troll rushes to put up yet another boring and half arsed post to try and make the Tories look bad, and is frothed at the mouth it must have covered his eyes.
Whatever you think about the various politicians and candidates taking bets on election dates, it’s not illegal. Maybe Ill advised, especially for those close to the Prime Minister, but not illegal. Those poor bookies who are crying foul of course didn’t have to take bets on such things that someone somewhere could possibly know the outcome of beforehand, but they did. Why’s that? Cos they made much more money out of the mugs who bet and lost on it. The house always wins. We actually doubt anyone but the PM and maybe a couple of other people actually knew the dates and everyone who betted took lucky punts. For many who got it right there would be lots more who got it wrong.
Of course the media aren’t going to let this one go, and the troll is lapping it up too. Despite the fact that the ‘corrupt’ Tories appear to be joined by the ‘corrupt’ Labour now who have also been having a flutter. Will Brina be taking the moral high ground and stop promoting Labour continuously on his various Facebook pages now? Of course not. Dumb trolls be dumb.
Debunking got a mention in the comments of his post though, which of course has already been removed, such is Brina’s butt hurt about this site. But we captured it for posterity. He just cannot have people see what an absolute tosspot he is by visiting this site. Despite a lot of our site traffic being from those searching for him! Spoiler for Brina: We think people already know. As for illegal Brina, we think stealing thousands of pounds of people’s dosh (according to our correspondence) is probably a little bit worse.
[Update: We need to clarify our point here, bets on the election are not illegal. Having insider information to make the bet and profit definitely are. If you were to take the frenzied media coverage on face value you’d think they had all immediately broken the law, including the politician who placed bets on it either being June or July. They are being investigated to see if they likely had insider information by the Gambling Commission. Those close to Government should really have stayed away from betting on it.]
