        If that’s true. Current odds are at 11/2. So may be worth you risking a few quid. Good luck

            Same situ. Never actually made a bet

            It did surprise me they had the same odds on hung par.iment as tory win.

            1/9 for a labour win.

            So please campaign they seem pretty confident in labour majority.

              I’m not the campaign type especially as I only trust Labour ever so slightly more than tory.

              Besides you don’t want me on your side I haven’t picked a winning horse since I was 18 and that was a mistake

                Not to different here.

                Its not so much about trust. Its more a case of if I have to suffer a dick in my arse. I d like some variety, And a rapest who at least still thinks he should try to convince me I asked for it.
