The betting on the 2015 general election continues to heat up and savvy punters are starting to favour David Cameron in the ‘next Prime Minister’ market.

Experts and shrewd political players appear to have correctly predicted a swing-back to the Tories in recent weeks and Cameron has become a popular choice in the betting.  The polls have been neck-and-neck since parliament was dissolved in March but punters have backed the Conservative leader into a best-priced 10/11 with Ladbrokes and his popularity has surged in recent days.  

For many, support for Cameron has seen Ed Miliband (EVENS, bet365) drift to a tantalising price and his followers will be keen to make the most of the generous odds available.

Leading bookmaker William Hill are expecting the 'next Prime Minister' market to heat up on the eve of the election and the firm's spokesman, Graham Sharpe, told BetOnPolitics.co.uk: "With this General Election the toughest to predict of any we have ever taken bets on, we've always believed that many shrewd political punters would wait until almost the last minute to place their bets so that they would be in possession of as much information about the parties and candidates.

"We expect to see a great betting surge as the campaign comes to an end. This will be the first eight figure betting turnover General Election and some £25million is likely to be at stake on the outcome."
