Well, that's unfortunate timing....

[davidgillon]

The Tories' head of campaigns has had to take a leave of absence in the middle of the election, because his wife's the latest Tory found to have placed a bet on the election date. I wonder how she could have guessed what it would be....

So far that's two Tory candidates and one of Sunak's close protection officers found betting on the date. It's like the Tories corrupt everything they touch.

And the fact the cop has been arrested and suspended, while the other two are still Tory candidates really doesn't look good.
