Outgoing Tory MP Alister Jack, who has oodles of money, has announced (I will not use the term admitted) that he bet on the GE election date. More than once. And lost more than once.
But stood to win £120.

They already hold this one. Took that up wrong, assumed it was another notional. Given past history bar 97 SNP victory and then SNP landslide victory would assume safe Tory territory here.

Presumably a Con/SNP recount?

Presumably a Con/SNP recount? The seat is reportedly close between the Conservatives and the SNP, but the recount is due to errors at the counting centre in Dumfries. There is also a recount in Dumfriesshire, Clydesdale and Tweeddale where David Mundell is supposedly ahead.

Conservatives have held on here with a majority just short of 1,000.

Which means but for Douglas Ross’s dastardly deeds the Tories ought to have held their six Scottish seats.
