Rishi Sunak shook hands on a £1,000 bet with Piers Morgan earlier this week
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak was once again in the news this week following his interview on Talk TV with Piers Morgan when he shook hands on a £1,000 bet with the presenter.
The bet itself was on whether deportation flights to Rwanda would take off before the general election with Morgan saying that he bets £1,000 that Sunak doesn't get anybody on those planes.
PM Sunak then shook hands on the bet and said that he is “working incredibly hard to get the people on the planes” and OLBG have hypothetical odds around the bet being paid.
Currently Sunak is 2/1 to pay out on the bet with Morgan the favourite at 4/6 to be the one who has to pay £1,000 to a refugee charity.
| Who has to pay out £1,000 Rwanda Bet? | Odds* | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Piers Morgan | 4/6 | 60.0% |
| Rishi Sunak | 2/1 | 33.3% |
