“Old_Labour” wins the PB-Ladbrokes by-election prize
How should he use his £200 worth of free bets?
Firstly thanks to Marf for her new wonderful cartoon which will become the logo for the year’s poster of the year contest – due to take place over the holiday period.
Secondly well done to Old_Labour who has won the PB Feltham by election competition

|---|---|---|
| 1 | old_labour | 3.72 |
| 2 | Harry Hayfield | 4.04 |

| 5= | Nick Palmer | 5.09 |

Interestingly only two of the entrants predicted a Labour lead over the Tories that was higher than it was. Joshue Dixon got this gap to within 0.1% but his LD/UKIP projection was way out.
Harry Hayfield would have been the overall winner if he had not put a minus sign before his projected 0.5% as the gap between the Lib Dems and UKIP.
Thanks to Ladbrokes for providing the prize of £200 of free bets. What should Old_Labour do with it?
