Monday 10 May 2010 at 18:26
Gordon Brown has announced his intent to step down as Labour leader which has led to a frenzy in the Next Labour Leader Betting Odds, for which David Miliband is a red hot favourite currently.
David Miliband Looks The Likely Choice According To Bookies
Next Labour Leader Betting Odds became extremely popular today as news broke about Gordon Browns resignation as Labour leader following their poor general election performance last week. It seem the popular choice to take over is David Miliband. The MP for South Shields was Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs under Gordon Brown and he was also a key figure in Tony Blair's days of Prime Minister. He is currently odds on in the Next Labour Leader Betting Odds and has been backed as short as 1/2 with William Hill but you can still get 5/6 with William Hill if you fancy a bet on this.
Brothers Go Head To Head In Leadership Battle
There are currently two strong second and third favourites in the Next Labour Leader Betting Odds but they are well behind the favourite David Miliband. Interestingly the main rival to David Miliband is his younger brother Ed Miliband, who is the MP for Doncaster North. He will be hoping he gets the vote over his brother to become the Next Labour Leader, he is the current second favourite and most likely to get in if David Miliband misses out, Ed Miliband is 8/1 with VC Bet and Sportingbet. He is just ahead of the third favourite, Hull West and Hessle MP Alan Johnson, who became the Home Secretary in June 2009, he is currently 10/1 with Ladbrokes to become the Next Labour Leader.
