Paddy Power have just slashed their price on a Jackie Baillie victory in the Labour Group leadership election, to 4/6 (from EVS). Concurrently, they have lengthened their prices on other key contenders, making PP pretty competitive if you fancy backing a "Stop Baillie" candidate. But the problem is: who is the "Stop Baillie" candidate going to be?
This makes Baillie the only MSP to have been odds-on with any bookie since prices were first published, just after the general election.
However, Ladbrokes and Hills still have longer than EVS odds on the Dumbarton MSP coming out on top.
