Priti Patel cut to 3/1 for Cabinet exit as Theresa May faces crisis
Published:Priti Patel is now the second-favourite to be the next Cabinet Minister to leave, according to our odds.
The MP for Witham is in trouble with the Prime Minister following her jam-packed holiday to Israel.
As a result we’ve seen the money pour in on her being the next Cabinet Minister to leave their role, and her odds have been cut into 3/1 as a consequence.
Damian Green remains the favourite for the axe at 2/1, with Conservative Party Chairman Patrick McLoughlin at 5/1. Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson is next at 6/1.
You can also get 10/1 on Theresa May exiting the Cabinet first.
Jessica Bridge of Ladbrokes said: “Patel’s family holiday doesn’t sound like something you’d pick out of a brochure, and punters reckon the consequences of her vacation could see her as the next Cabinet Minister out of a job.”
