According to today’s Herald, the betting markets are continuing to move towards Labour:
“The bookmakers are making it an increasingly close contest. William Hill said yesterday that they had not taken any bets on the SNP winning the seat since Prime Minister Gordon Brown campaigned there at the weekend. The bookmakers have the SNP as narrow favourites, with Labour rapidly closing the gap.”
Of course, we shouldn’t be surprised that Labour are in the running for a seat where they currently enjoy a 10,644 majority. But, should they triumph, expect it to be milked for all its “Brown bounce” worth.
