Cameron not standing for reelection...

didn't realize Boris (3.65) was favorite to take his place, blimey.

he said it before last election, widely reported

it slipped out during the 2015 GE campaign so to speak.

Boris now available with me at 3.7 , any takers?

Yeah had heard something before last election, but he just said it out loud just now, a bit more definitive.  The blair-brown changeover took place in 2007, 3 years before 2010 election.  Only 4 years to go to 2020 election, wonder when the changeover will take place.

Boz wasnt fav unti lthis week and cameron announced he wasnt standing again, during last election campaign.

Osborne been as short as 7/4

Is it really going to be Johnson versus Corbyn in 2020. What a state this country has become a buffoon versus a nutcase.

Which is which ??

Doesn't the favourite for the leadership of the Tory party usually get beat when they vote?

Which is which ??

No difference. They both advocate working with Vladimir Putin, and in return he bigs them up on Russia Today.

if boris becomes our prime minister we will be the laughing stock of the world.

may as well have forrest gump leading us.

Cameron announced this yonks ago. There is a politics forum but I am scared to go in there.

The betting significance is in next Prime Minister markets -- check the terms as some are for PM after the 2020 election but if not, just draw a line through all the Labour names.

Keep up rob, said that yonks ago.

Yes, Tories have a track record of not going for the fav

David Davis was evens when Cameron beat him , who started at 10s.

Howard wasnt fav, nor Hague , nor John Major.

are you still knocking off ladycakes Howdi?

i've been looking at this market today to try and see if i could see any outsider worth backing as i agree those at the head of this market usually lose and it really is a most uninspiring field. could the boring phillip hammond be a player?

Tory rules are that the MPs narrow the field down to two, and ordinary party members then make the final choice.

Have I heard that right?  So when is he standing down?  are there some good prices to be had here, betfair has a market for his exit date.


As others have pointed out. This is hardly news.
Cameron publicly stated he would not stand as PM after this current term
