West Lancashire By-Election Betting Odds: Labour are MASSIVE 1/25 favourites to win the upcoming by-election in West Lancashire!

Labour are 1/25 to hold their West Lancashire seat at the upcoming by-election

The resignation of West Lancashire Labour MP Rosie Cooper means that a by-election in the constituency has been triggered.

Bookies make Labour 1/25 to continue to hold the seat which they have held since 1992. 

By-election betting has increased in popularity in recent years and Smarkets offer odds for this particular market.

Green and Liberal Democrats are both 50/1 in the betting market with bookies giving them a small chance of winning.

Conservatives are 20/1 to win the seat for the first time in 30 years

The Conservative Party haven't held the West Lancashire seat since 1992 and they're as big as 20/1 to do so again in the by-election.

According to the betting odds, that gives Conservatives just a 4.8% chance of winning the upcoming by-election.

The West Lancashire by-election is due to be an early test in Liz Truss's reign as Prime Minister.
