So Betting Time On The Election.

[DTCwordfan]

At the DC election, I had a bet with Mikey, remember him?  A £10 note but rather than between us, I suggested down to the bookies and go for a spread bet on how many seats.

I went for the Tories by 10 to 15 and Mikey, naturally, for the Labour party but I can't remember what his spread was. Anyway, I came home and trousered £150

Now - time to commit yourselves - down to the bookies and place a fiver or tenner on your party of choice and by how many seats? Let us know....

My bet, a tenner on Labour by a majority of no more than 15-20. I don't know the odds on this yet.

Over to you.

I'm not placing a bet but wanted to say I do miss Mikey. We used to talk about the Archers a lot. Happy memories. 

[sandyRoe]

I'll go slightly higher.

20-25

 Can you get odds on a Labber win ?

[sandyRoe]

Labour to win most seats. 2/17.

Not great odds 

[Hymie]

Well, you can get odds of 7/2 on Labour wining between 300 – 349 seats.

Labour with a majority of 309 seats? Nah! That's garbage. 

[jourdain2]

Yes, hellywelly - I miss Mikey too.  Don't think I'll be betting on the result.... except I might have a fiver on Reform getting a seat, maybe 2?

[hellywelly4]

Jourdain - I don't really know what Reform is! I think it's something to do with NF, but not sure. I will vote as I always do - for the party. It's a shame it's so divisive, even on AB.  Hope your hip is improving.

[Ken4155]

Reform 1/4 NOT to win any seats, 7/2 to win 1 or 2.

[ToraToraTora]

I'll go Labour 11-20 seat majority.

[davebro3]

No overall majority 5-1

[sandyRoe]

What odds would you get if betting on Labour to have a majority of 20-25?
