Rishi tried the same thing, but the bookies didn't offer very good odds for some reason...?

I did actually check the odds, if I bet £100 on a labour majority I stand to win... £100.50 back

You’d get £104 at Ladbrokes.

Still, in this case doing so means you're technically a winner no matter what the outcome, elected or quids in!

I could just imagine what he thought when the accusation of bookies fraud came out within the Tories. "Oh shit, now they've all done something horribly immoral and illegal to do with political betting they're going to pretend the legal and fine thing I did is the same."

Pretty much, there now seems to be a moral outrage about any betting by politicians at all

I never in my life expected that Pinocchio 3000 would be used in a meme format

come to say the same. This is the first time outside of watching the film have I seen it 😂😂

I did a similar thing in the last election and bet on the party I didn't want in. Win win for me

I mean, I personally would have viewed this as a 'If I win, I win. But if I lose, at least I get a little win, which is nice'. [Insert the Bill Murray meme here]

He tweeted that his winnings would've gone to charity.

Why lol ? It’s obviously untrue

"Well, we're fucked. Might as well make a quick quid "

Is that the dude from Pinocchio 2000?

I tried to copy but yet that was more practical

He should have betted that he wouldn't win.

Reread the newsline

He was suspended so he didn't run and therefore *didn't* lose. He still didn't win. He should have betted that he wouldn't win.

Ngl I don't want to vote for any of them, they all suck ass
