Ben Wallace has become the new favourite to take over after Boris Johnson resigned today, who else do the bookmakers think is the likeliest to become the next Prime Minister?
With Boris Johnson resigning today it has left an opening for the current Secretary of State for Defence Ben Wallace to take over as the next Prime Minister.
Wallace is currently the best price of 33/10 to become the new leader of the UK and is also the favourite in the next Conservative leader market at the best price of 11/4 but can be found as short as 2/1 in places as well.
At the start of the day Wallace was the best price of 10/1 to be the next Prime Minister but since then has taken a total of 21% of oddschecker punters bets in the last 12 hours and this has led to the Secretary of State for Defence odds shortening.

Rishi Sunak is the best price of 5/1 to take over the Conservative party and is currently sitting behind Wallace at 28/5 to be the next Prime Minister.
A name that has drifted in both markets is Portsmouth North MP Penny Mordaunt who was as short as 5/1 to be the next Prime Minister but has now moved to 6/1 in the market and at the close of the day yesterday was 4/1 to be the next Conservative party leader but now sees herself drifting to a best price of 7/1.
