James O'Brien reacts to some of the latest developments in Gamblegate - deeming the wagers as 'emotional hedges' and 'small fry'.

James states that if we want to 'restore respect' for politicians, we can't presume that they are 'all corrupt'.

The Gamblegate scandal includes police officers and politicians from multiple parties - and largely centres around predictions on the date of the upcoming election.

One member of Rishi Sunak's close protection team was arrested over an alleged bet made on the date of the election, and has since been bailed.

Six more police officers are now being investigated by the Gambling Commission.

Meanwhile, as many as fifteen Conservatives could be under investigation by the Gambling Commission over alleged bets made on the date of the election, reports suggest.

One Labour candidate, Kevin Craig, bet on himself to lose in the upcoming election. He was immediately suspended by the Labour Party.
