This was obvious years ago. Labour are totally out of touch, incompetent and useless, just like their ardent brainwashed useless idiot supporters (we see on here). Labour are in denial and talk nonsense 95% of the time but resort to insulting, spitting and other disgraceful lawless acts to try and undermine opposition, but he good decent people of the Uk...

Saying that Mr Corbyn is 'an alternative to failed politics' is like saying that I can replace my torch with the bulb that has burned out by using one with flat batteries.

It is an 'alternative' - just not one that is actually any more use than the original.
the Fabian society have got that wrong, according to the corbynistas - the disillusionment with labour stemmed from the milliband years and now mr corbyn is in charge and returning the party to its left wing roots, the disillusioned will surge back and sweep the party to power.

allegedly.
Laugh all you want - but JC is still the bookies favourite to be the next Prime Minister ... and I trust bookies ...

^Gawd 'elp us!
so obvious that the obvious Labour leader is ....... ?


it is obvious to the Great and Good that leadus ( and others ) that we dont like the current crop - but who is in the wings to replace them ?

America has chosen Trump - whose rich frenz are buying up or paying out over his lesser known business failures - Trump University, Atlantic City.

But who do we choose considering The Nige has NOT been chosen by the electorate - is it six times ? [ stood for parliament but failed to get elected ]
oh er and the Nige isnt Labour .... forgot that rather blssding obvious fact

well Dave, that does look odd but all that means is they are loaded with bets on Labour.
sunny dave; I'm not a betting man (though I have all the other vices) but does your chart mean that if I sign up to Betfred I can have £60 on Corbyn to win at the odds of 9/2 for free?
I have no idea, khandro - I don't even know how to buy a lottery ticket - just found the odds through google.
Donald trump @ 500/1 (paddypower) I'm away tae the bookies the noo ;)
SUNNY-DAVE if you had gone all the way to the end of the names, David Davis has odds of 14/5 on Bet fair.
It does seem an odd 'pronouncement'. I wonder what they got paid for something any sane person can see a mile off (including many labour supporters).

If you look at the list in the link you will notice that it is a bit of a joke list to attract new accounts, (hence the free bet offers) The list includes Richard Branson, Alan Sugar and Ant and Dec. However the end column has a list of six, 14/5 joint favourites. That list includes Sadiq Khan and David Milliband.
I can see only the one offer of 14/5 which is the one I quoted earlier which is odd.
Sadiq Khan is showing odds of 50/1
Beware of the betting odds for two reasons:

Firstly if reflects what the bookies have in liabilities for the various options. If they have a load of money on option (a) they will shorten the price but offer a better price on option (b) in an attempt to balance their book.

But more importantly I think “The next PM” means the PM after Mrs May. If the Conservatives win the next election (with her still as leader) she will not be the next PM. She will be the same PM as we currently have. To demonstrate this, if you look at Coral’s prices for the next General Election they ask 4/5 for a Conservative majority and offer 11/2 for a Labour majority. (This is nothing to do with “free” bets to attract new business. These are simply their current ordinary odds). This ties in nicely with the 5/1 they offer for JC to be the next Premier. It seems when taking all the odds into consideration that the bookies believe a Conservative victory is the most likely outcome of the next GE with Mrs May at the helm. So much so that they offer longer odds on other Conservatives taking the reins than they do on Corbyn moving into No.10.

To illustrate that there is more than the simple binary choice that seems to be suggested, you could put £56 on a Conservative victory and draw over £100 if successful and you could put £16 on JC becoming the next Prime Minister and draw over £100 if successful. So if it was a simple choice between JC becoming PM or a Conservative victory you could lay out £72 and be sure of walking away with £100. Bookies, as you can imagine, don’t work like that!
Haha Sadiq Khan has gone 19/10. Have you had a big punt on him Corby? (^_*)
TOGO I am looking at the site in your link but can't see the same odds you are seeing, very strange!
N.J. Your post makes my head hurt :0) That's probably why I don't bet.
I'm confused.

is this about the Fabian Society, or BetFair?
