Wonder if Starmer is worth a punt. The Tories might not be able to get their act together and we have a GE

The next PM market has obviously been quite active the past few hours, just seen some poor soul back best part of £1k at 4.0 on Jacob Rees-Mogg. I'm guessing they meant odds of 400.

No, I reckon it was meant to be £4 at 1000. :lol: I've actually placed £1000 on Twice Over for the Derby at 2.0 when I got the figures the wrong way around but fortunately I didn't have a grand in my account. :)

Just show's what useless bunch they've been that Tree-Frogg is anywhere near the discussion.

And the bad news is the membership gets to vote if there are 2 candidates in the race off.

And the good news is I eligible to vote this time as just got me email from Tory head office.

Are MPs limited to one candidate or can they endorse several?

I'm disappointed she didn't begin her speech with, what I have done today, acting in the best interest of the nation.......I have decided to do three things; resign, resign, resign. :D
