Punters U-Turn On Eighth Amendment

Following the Cabinet’s agreement to hold a referendum on repealing the Eighth Amendment on Monday night, we’ve seen further movement in the betting.

Having only reported on Monday afternoon, before the agreement, that punters had piled on a change to, or removal of, the Eighth Amendment, resulting in the odds shortening to 1/7 from 1/6, it seems some have now had a change of heart.

The odds have now drifted and a vote to change or remove Eighth Amendment has been eased out to 2/5 from 1/7.

A vote to leave the Eighth Amendment unchanged has been backed into 7/4 from 9/2 following a surge of support on Tuesday morning.
