Congratulations to Mark Senior

July 16th, 2005

    Winner of our Cheadle prediction competition

There were no prizes for the winner of our by-election competition except something which is pricelsss - the recognition of fellow users of the site. This is Mark Senior our winner and these were his answers.

1 - Winning party - Lib Dems 10 points
2 - Percentage turnout - 60 % against actual of 55% giving 3 points
3 - Lib Dem Share - 52 % against actual of 52.15% giving the maximum of 15 points
4 - Tory share - 40 % against actual of 42.42% giving 13 points
5 - Labour share 4 % against actual of 4.63% giving maximum of 6 points
6 - Charles Kennedy’s future. No. Although tomorrow’s deadline has not yet passed we are giving Mark 10 points.

Well done to Mark for getting maximum points on both the Lib Dem and Labour shares - a real achievement. Thanks to everybody else who took part. Given the picture that Mark has provided perhaps we ought to have a caption competition.

  12. 11 - I have been offered a part time job assisting Eva Petulengro with her fortune telling on Brighton Pier


  13. Mark.

    Congratulations once again. I seriously think that Robert Waller should be tapping your encyclopaedic knowledge of local elction results for HIS Almanac!


  14. Yes Mark - comedy captions aside, well done indeed. An astonishing performance on the vote shares.


  15. 12 Is old Eva still there? How wierd is that. I was just having a clear out and found a card with her name on from nearly 15 years ago. She has a sister too I seem to recall.


  16. 15 - Old Eva retired some years ago to be replaced by her daughter who also tells the future under her mother’s name but I am not sure if that is her real Christian name - just checked on Google and it is Claire .


  17. I would like to say I knew that, but I have trouble seeing into the future, except I have a vision of a white-painted timber kiosk on Brighton Pier with “politicalbetting” written on the side and you taking some flutters during the conference season.


  18. re: 17: a veritable fortune-maker, if not teller….


  19. I notice that like me, Mark GROSSLY over-estimated the ‘pull’ of third parties, giving them 4 per cent in total!

    but “well played sir”!


  20. 19 - True , I thought that Veritas would actually put up some sort of campaign .
