    Betting odds reflect where the money is going and where people see value. They are a useful tool, but simply a tool, alongside the polls. Personally, I think there's little value in Remain at these odds. The latest Survation phone poll (just released) has Leave climbing to 49.5, with Remain only 1% ahead. Very close indeed. The value is skewed towards Leave, as a risk/reward calculation, although I think the betting odds have the result correct (just not the probability).
    I agree it's worth a punt on Leave at those odds.

    Paddy Power

    Remain: 2/9
    Leave: 10/3

    Cue much anger and complaining how it's not fair from our Leave-inclined friends.

    After Brexit should see the pound worth 1 cent. Our exports will be flying over the pond.

    I pity those running 5.5L V8's mind, petrol will be £1000 a litre.

    Isn't that what the central banks everywhere are desperate for?
