With the LAB leadership nomination stage coming to an end punters are getting a tad nervous about Starmer
Today marks the end of the second stage of LAB’s leadership election – the period when CLPs and affiliated organisations have made their nominations.
As can be seen from the betting chart everything appeared to be going right for ex-DPP and Shadow BrexSec, Keir Starmer. Four days ago he reached his peak in the betting a 90% chance. That’s now started to edge down and as can be seen he’s now at 84%. It is hard to say what’s driving this because he has done so well with constituency parties and affiliated organisations.
For RLB this has most been a downhill battle from being a 50% betting chance just after the general election.
The next stage is the postal ballot with that closing on April 2nd and the result being announced on April 4th.
