Andy Burnham Prime Minister Odds: 1/10 to Outlast Starmer’s Tenure

Andy Burham is odds-on to be UK Prime Minister for longer than Boris Johnson’s tenure of three years and 45 days.

The former Mayor of Manchester is a 1/10 chance to last longer in top office than Keir Starmer, while he is 10/1 to exceed Tony Blair’s 10-year tenure in 10 Downing Street.

Should there be a General Election in 2027, Burnham is 6/4 to win most seats for Labour, and 5/1 to secure a Labour majority, while he is 12/1 to secure two successive Labour majorities.
