Last Chance for Manifesto Defense

This event will provide one of the final opportunities for both sides to defend their manifesto pledges and present their platforms to the public.

Betting Scandal Unfolds

Rishi Sunak's hopes of the betting scandal dissipating were dashed when the Gambling Commission identified another top Tory allegedly involved in betting on the General Election timing.

The commission is broadening its investigation to look into potential involvement of party insiders using third parties to place bets, with more individuals of interest being identified.

Several Tory figures, including candidates and officials, are under scrutiny, with calls for intervention from various quarters.

Shadow Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson expressed voter disgust over the allegations, while the Liberal Democrats urged Mr. Sunak to initiate a Cabinet Office inquiry into the matter.

The Gambling Commission confirmed an ongoing investigation but refrained from providing further details at this time.
