Does Burnham Go Clear or Jog On?

Well, I mean, it has been a, a pretty, uh, seismic by-election from a, from a political betting point of view already.

Uh, we're some way out, 844,000, um, has been traded on the market, so amazing really.

Um, and one clever punter managed to get himself an even-money Labour quite early on.

Um, Labour sort of, uh, were pretty quickly moving to sort of eight to 11 for the first couple of days of betting, uh, with Reform, um, hovering around 11 to eight.

Then the fellow at Betfair decided, oh, he'd forgotten to put Restore Britain in.

Uh, they traded at a hundreds.

Uh, they came in to as low as 11 to one, uh, and they're now back out to 22 to one.

Uh, after the...

There was a poll that came out, that moved the market a fair bit.

Uh, Labour had been backed into one to three.

They drifted back to four to six for a couple of days after the poll.

But the prices have really settled down.

We're basically four to 11, seven to two, and 20.
