Cabinet Shake-Up Chances
Speculation rose on whether there is a planned Cabinet reshuffle about to take place when Boris Johnson chose to swerve questions on the subject at a press conference yesterday.
Those actions have spurned bookmakers into creating odds as to whether a reshuffle will take place in the next week or not.
Currently, bets are coming for a 'No' but it's not a clear decision, and punters are relatively evenly split.
Cabinet reshuffle before 13th September betting odds.
