Could Farage Lead the Conservatives?
Betting markets suggest that Nigel Farage is unlikely to become the leader of the Conservative Party with bookmakers offering odds of 1/12 that he does not take charge of the Tories.
The former UKIP and Brexit Party leader has long been a controversial figure in British politics but despite speculation surrounding his potential return to the Tory party in previous years, the odds indicate a leadership bid remains highly unlikely.

Farage on Strictly? Bookies Say It’s Unlikely
Outside of politics, Farage has never been one to shy away from the spotlight, but bookmakers don’t see a Strictly Come Dancing appearance as likely.
The odds of Farage featuring on the popular BBC show during the current Parliament stand at 20/1, which equates to just a 4.8% implied probability.
With past contestants including politicians like Ed Balls and Ann Widdecombe, it wouldn't be unprecedented, and Farage has previously appeared Down Under in the I'm A Celebrity jungle.
