WokeBet Odds on a Looming Labor Clean Sweep of Australia
Chris Minns ended a record 12 years in opposition for NSW Labor, opening up the WokeBet market to the prospect of a left-wing clean sweep of Australia.
SANDY: A quick cross now to Larry Fillmore over at WokeBet for the latest odds on the changing political landscape in Australia
LARRY: G’Day Sands
SANDY: Larry, I believe the long-awaited Labor sweep of Australia is odds on at the moment?
LARRY: Indeed Sands, Chris Minns ended a record 12 years in opposition for NSW Labor, opening up the betting market to the prospect of a left-wing takeover of the country, as Tasmania becomes the last Liberal hold-out letting the whole team down. But a few lucky WokeBetters are already celebrating their Multi-bet wins, guessing into the election win for Labor, and also picking the 47 seats they won – a landslide according to mainstream news networks in Australia, despite only being able to form a minority government Sandy.
SANDY: And while we’re on politics, I hear you can still get some very nice odds on Xi Jinping in China?
LARRY: Not sure who you’re talking to Sands, but Xi’s probably our shortest priced favourite in in market, perhaps after Putin to get up in his election this time next year, but if you’re keen, there’s some value in a Chinese President and Vice-president Quinelle, with a childhood friend of Xi looking likely at 8/1, or you could take a punt on Victorian premier Daniel Andrews for the job, a roughie for sure, but firming to 80/1 from over 100 a few weeks ago Sands.
SANDY: Definitely worth a flutter, given his history making deals with the Chinese behind our national government’s back? Anyway, thanks for the tips and look after yourself Larry
LARRY: Yeah/nah I’m alright at the moment, probably still gambling a little too much but it’s sure to pay out soon…
SANDY: Umm, yeah, take it easy mate…
