What are those odds in old money?
Even money, more or less between tory and lib dem. This morning it was 6/4 lib dem 4/6 tories, roughly with some crappy maths mental arithmetic
I thought that this morning, not so sure now. By the time the polling booths shut I expect lib dems to be favourite
Maybe. A sudden bout of Shy Toryism might see them across the line.
It could be, as you say tories feel a bit shy about voicing there ballot paper. I know I would be.
probably, it's rare to get a 23k majority overturned.
I may be wrong but I believe exit polls can't be published until after the polling is closed.
I believe you are right, leaked maybe?
Wouldn't be the first time. I was checking out the rules and found this.
Labour didn't campaign to give the lib dems a free shot. I hope they all do this in the next ge.
Yes results tomorrow. Lib dems now at 1.82,tories 2.14 and heading in one direction.
I live in the constituency and the Lib Dems have been telling lies throughout. They have been in third place in every election for many years - sometimes by miles - but have been pretending they were continually second and that any other non tory vote is wasted. Naughty Lib Dems. They also get donors to place big bets so they can pretend they are the bookies favourites to feed that narrative. It will be interesting but it’s a hell of a majority to turn round. Where I live no one at all has a good word for Paterson, he did nothing for this area, yet he had a huge vote. Labour nearly took the seat in 97, lost by a handful I think. Boris and brexit were huge at the last GE.
Very interesting. If it is party money, they are spending a fair bit. The market has seen half a million+ wagered, nearly 300k of it on the lib dems. Tories still drifting massively, out to 2.56 with lib dems now on 1.63. That is some turn around if you are trying to manipulate the market that is that liquid.
