Latest betting odds for Rishi Sunak, Penny Mordaunt and Liz Truss with one to lose seat

Several top Tories are forecasted to lose their seat at the general election on July 4 - but some are likely to be spared their jobs, according to bookmakers.

The bookies have had their say on whether Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and other top Tories's seats are in jeopardy as the General Election fast approaches.

Sunak has been in damage control mode this week after the outrage over him skipping D-Day commemorations in France. And though polling points to a likely defeat for his party at the ballot box, it looks as though he'll at least be spared the humiliation of losing his seat.

Betting firm SkyBet is currently offering 1/3 odds of Sunak retaining his Richmond and Northallerton seat, pointing to a likely victory in the uber-safe seat for the embattled PM.

Penny Mordaunt, an MP since 2010, served as a Cabinet member under three of the UK's last five Prime Ministers as has often been tipped as leadership material.

But the betting markets suggest her time in Westminster could be coming to an end for the time being, as she faces a shock defeat in her Portsmouth North seat.

Labour are 4/9 to strip the seat from the Conservatives, who are 13/8 to retain the constituency, indicating a long night for Mordaunt on July 4.

The bookies believe former PM Liz Truss's Norfolk South West constituents are willing to overlook her troubles during her short time as PM, offering 2/5 odds of the Tories winning the seat.

Meanwhile, Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has been tipped for a stomping win in Clacton with SkyBet putting the odds of a victory for his party at 2/9 as of Thursday.

It puts the probability of a win for Reform, which would make Nigel Farage an MP for the first time after seven failed attempts, at more than 81 percent.

Sir Keir Starmer has no worries about his own seat, with the odds of a Labour in Holborn and St Pancras at an overwhelming 1/500.

But he may have an eye on results in Islington North, where former Labour leader and ideological foe Jeremy Corbyn is odds on to win as an independent.

Corbyn was expelled from the parliamentary party over his reaction to a critical report on antisemitism under his leadership, which he insisted had been “dramatically overstated”.

But he retains loyal support and is 4/9 to win the seat.

A YouGov poll this week gave Labour a 20-point lead with 38 percent, but Sir Keir's party has dropped three points from the week before.

Meanwhile, Reform UK is now just one point behind the Tories, according to the survey, with Farage's party on 17 percent, up one from last week, with the Conservatives down one on 18 percent.

The Liberal Democrats are up four points in fourth place with 15 percent, with the Greens on 8 percent and the SNP taking 2 percent.

The poll of more than 2,000 British adults was carried out on Monday and Tuesday morning before Sunak unveiled his General Election manifesto.
