Sportsbet has opened betting on what’s next for Malcom Turnbull following his resignation today.
The former Prime Minister is touted a $4.00 chance to return to the legal profession and $5.00 to go on the public speaking circuit.
The online bookmaker has also opened betting on who will replace Turnbull in his seat of Wentworth, with the Liberals a $1.25 chance to retain the seat. Dave Sharma is tipped to win pre-selection at odds of $1.65.
“It’s the end of an era for Malcom Turnbull but we’re tipping that’s not the last we’ll be seeing of him. A memoir, radio show or his own spot on TV would certainly go down a treat following all that’s unfolded over the past few days,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Ella Zampatti.
