This is asking for trouble. Ladbrokes has opened a book on the first question David Cameron will ask in PMQs. There will be at least a dozen Tories who will know the answer to this on Wednesday morning, and be sorely tempted to ask their cousin to place a large bet. As you can see from the high ranking of taxes – and the featuring of MPs expenses – these bookies don’t always get it right. So there’s money to be made. Mind you, someone had to put Frank Roy out of business…
Ladbrokes odds:-
What will be the topic of David Cameron’s first question at this week’s PMQs?
Childcare/Family Issues — 2/1
China/Tibet — 7/2
Budget/Taxes — 4/1
Economy — 4/1
Crime — 10/1
Iran — 10/1
Schools/Education — 10/1

MPs’ Pay/Allowances — 20/1
Gambling — 100/1
