It’s been brought to my attention that Ladbrokes are offering odds on the General Election here in Lewisham East. Interestingly, they agree with the Lib Dems’ assertion that Lewisham East is now a two horse race between Labour and the Lib Dems.
- Labour 1/8 (fair enough in a seat they’ve held for 18 years)
- Lib Dem Pete Pattisson 5/1
- Conservative 12/1
- Green 100/1
Bookies obviously consider Pete best placed to challenge Labour on May 6th. Votes for the Greens or Conservatives just risk helping Labour scrape in again.
