Gavin Grey: UK Correspondent on the gambling scandals in the lead up to the election
Manage episode 425638747 series 2098280
A gambling scandal is causing a rocky run up to next week's UK election.
Six police officers, including a member of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's protection team, are in hot water after allegedly placing bets on the election date.
UK correspondent Gavin Grey told Mike Hosking that it's an extraordinary saga, with two Conservative MPs now suspended after also facing accusations.
But he says because they're already on the ticket, they can still be voted on and will have to stand as independents if they win a seat.
The Gambling Commission has also launched an investigation into a now suspended Labour candidate.
