UK Conservative Party Faces Betting Scandal, Suspends Craig Williams and Laura Saunders
Jun 25, 2024, 09:46 AM
The UK Conservative Party is embroiled in a widening betting scandal involving bets placed on the date of the upcoming general election. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has initiated an internal investigation parallel to the Gambling Commission's inquiry. The scandal has led to the suspension of two parliamentary candidates, Craig Williams and Laura Saunders, after they admitted to placing bets. The controversy has intensified with calls for Sunak to suspend all implicated party members. Additionally, a Labour candidate, Kevin Craig, has been suspended for betting against himself in his constituency. The scandal threatens to further damage the Conservative Party's prospects in the July 4 election, with Sunak's leadership under scrutiny. Five people with links to Sunak are under investigation, including Russel George.
