My Predictions

Will a grandmother's application for the demolition of Tesco CEO Sir Terry Leahy's home be granted?

Current forecast: 6% chance
Combining all predictions, the current forecast is that this is 6% likely to happen (unchanged in last 1 day)

From BBC News:
A grandmother from Merseyside has applied for planning permission to demolish the home of Tesco chief executive Sir Terry Leahy.

Dot Reid is retaliating against plans to bulldoze her home and 71 others in Kirkby, to make way for Everton's new stadium and a Tesco supermarket.

The 58-year-old said Sir Terry, who lives in a mansion in Hertfordshire, deserved a taste of his own medicine.

She plans to turn the site of the Tesco boss's house into a community garden.

She IS going to put flowers in her garden, and the little people ARE going to win! At least, that's how it grows in Hubdubland.

Should we get Nigel, tish, or Ryan to settle early since the odds are so high? It seems to be all the rage... (see this question's comments for next STRIKE discussion: http://www.hubdub.com/e/Market/Will_Patrick_Swayze_die_before_April_15_2008_3689/view
