Rishi backers – take Plan B.

If you were looking for a bounce in Rishi Sunak’s fortunes after my announcement yesterday, look away! Yesterday I told you would get more money from backing the best horse in the world than from betting on Liz Truss to be our next Prime Minister.

Today I can tell you that Rishi Sunak is now over 8-1 against to beat Truss after drifting like a barge throughout yesterday and this morning. A Liz win will net you 12p for every pound bet ,not much more than were you to keep  your money in the bank (especially if Sunak’s predictions of 7% interest rates in her wake – come true!)

Compare these odds with yesterday’s and you can see Sunak is out from 6 – 8.4-1. Maybe the barge will be over the weir soon!

Thursday morning’s odds

If you are an MP who’s got behind Rishi Sunak, look at Plan B!
