Who’s going to win the general election?

A general election looms with Betway making it 2/7 that Brits will vote for a new PM before the UK leaves the EU.

Despite internal divisions, the Tories are available at 2/9 with Betway to win the most seats if an election is called.

Downing Street has indicated that Boris Johnson will push for an election if a Brexit delay is agreed, as MPs rejected the Prime Minister’s plans to rush through his Withdrawal Bill.

A December 2019 election is looking most likely and the leading online bookmaker has priced it at 11/10, whilst a Brexit date between January and June 2020 is now the favourite, at even money.

Betway’s Alan Alger said: “Boris Johnson has said he’d “rather be dead in a ditch” than agree to extend Brexit and promised Brits that the UK would leave the EU by the end of the month with or without a deal. With MPs on both sides opposed to crashing out on Halloween, it looks like the Prime Minister could be eating his words and a general election is on the cards.

“Brits are going to have to overcome their political fatigue and consider who they want to see leading Brexit negotiations moving forward.”
