When's Gordon Leaving - There is money to be made.
Betfair.com has the options for when Gordon is leaving and a chart of how the punters have been seeing it:
I know I have said I think he will hang on but as I supped my ale last night I had a blinding epiphany why he would leave at Michaelmas, but I am no longer sure the conference season will provide it, or exactly what my reasoning was. So this morning I hover between expecting Gordon suddenly discovering he has a heart murmur and has to step down reluctantly or that there is a sudden nation uniting terrorist threat which means now is not the time to change the helmsman....

I have hypothesised, on more than one occasion, that El Gordo will cancel the next election in the name of national security.
