General Election betting

[Ironside]

Just need Labour to get over 250 seats and turnout to stick betweem 65.01-70.00% and clean up... (If £50 is a clean up!)

you should clean up with the 250 seats and you will be very close with the 65% but should be safe

Turnout bet not settled on Betfair. ARe they waiting for Thirsk and Malton which was postponed until 27 May?

I think so......sporting index doing a similar thing with seats spread

After last night I just can't see how Cameron is now going to achieve a bigger swing than Maggie coming to power in 1979,to get to the magic 326  (another 117 seats)....so a hung parliament it is I reckon.

Hung parliament was 7/4 the day before the Nick, the king maker, Clegg had his moment in the spotlight. Now its 5/4.

However you can get 5/2 on  "David Cameron (or any other Tory politician) to be Prime Minister in Hung Parliament in 2010" with William Hill.


"The party which has the strongest mandate from the British people will have the first right to seek to govern," Clegg said......surely the Tories.

A real slow roll waiting for this to pay out

you can get 1.26 on betfair if you want to buy some money IMHO.

Greened out at cost of £3 compared to letting it ride. A low turn out in Thirsk could just slip it under 65.01 as it might be treated like a by election and lots of voters might be pee'd off with last few days?

I'm on this. Am i right in thinking that it is a Hung parlimant so that as long as Cameron is the next Prime Minister whether it is in a minority or ConLib coalition i get paid?
If that is right then is it also true that i can green out by backing LabLib as the next government?
