SILLY ODDS ON STARMER

In recent days Keir Starmer's leadership odds have shortened by a whopping 100 per cent.  He was odds on at 1/10 six days ago, but is now odds on at 1/20 across all major bookmakers.  The bookies' certainty mirrors the desperation of the Long-Bailey/continuity Corbyn camp.  With voting already well underway it seems there is little that can be done to stop Starmer.  Barring some huge internal fraud it appears that the dullest man in Westminster is nailed on for victory.
