Betting scandal engulfs UK election
Conservative figures are accused of betting on the timing of the snap election.
Rishi Sunak’s Tories are beleaguered by a mid-campaign scandal, as it emerged the party’s director of campaigning Tony Lee has taken a leave of absence amid reports both he and his would-be MP wife Laura Saunders are being investigated by the Gambling Commission.
So what’s it all about?
Four people have been embroiled so far: 2 candidates, the party’s campaign director and a police officer.
Craig Williams, Sunak’s parliamentary aide before the election was called and the Conservative candidate in Montgomeryshire, was being probed by the Gambling Commission.
He has admitted he had “a flutter” on the election date and says he “should have thought how it looks”.
The scandal intensified yesterday when the BBC revealed that one of the PM’s close protection officers had been suspended after also allegedly placing a similar bet.
It then emerged that a second Tory candidate, Laura Saunders, was also under investigation by the Gambling Commission, as was her husband, Tony Lee.
He just happens to be the party’s director of campaigns, a role he took a “leave of absence” from yesterday.
Those rumours have only intensified since we revealed that the Betfair exchange saw a huge spike in bets on the date of the election the day before Sunak announced it outside No.10.

Why does it matter?
Under the 2005 Gambling Act, the misuse of inside information when betting can lead to a prison sentence of up to two years.
‘Every Tory I know is angry’: Betting scandal sends election campaign into ‘freefall’
Rishi Sunak is facing severe criticism from within his party over his handling of the saga
Craig Williams, the Prime Minister’s parliamentary aide and Conservative candidate for Montgomeryshire and Glyndwr, last week admitted he had “put a flutter” on the date of the poll in the run up to it being called.
Scottish Conservative leader Douglas Ross has criticised those involved in the bets, telling reporters any candidates found to have used inside information to bet on the date of the General Election should be sacked.
It’s a huge headache for a Conservative Party that is already facing electoral annihilation — and an open goal for the opposition Labour Party that hopes to replace them.
More names expected to come out in betting scandal – as Tory candidate says she will ‘fully cooperate’
Two Tory candidates are already being investigated over alleged wagers placed on the date of the 4 July contest – including Laura Saunders, who is married to the head of Conservative campaigns.

All bets off on trust for the Tories as election gambling scandal engulfs campaign
A new poll has put Reform UK ahead as the Tories go into meltdown about the betting scandal linked to Rishi Sunak’s inner circle
The Conservatives are facing electoral meltdown after the scandal over betting on the election date engulfed the party’s top campaign team.
The party admitted its director of campaigning, Tony Lee, had “taken a leave of absence” hours after it was revealed that his wife, Laura Saunders, was being investigated by the Gambling Commission. Ms Saunders is the Tory candidate for Bristol North West and has worked for the party since 2015.
With the party’s electoral hopes in freefall, the forced departure of a senior campaign figure just two weeks before the polls open could not have come at a worse time for Rishi Sunak.
