It's A Simple Question, PM Did You Tell Your Aide The Election Date Before He Put A Bet On It?

It came after the Prime Minister finally removed support from Craig Williams' candidacy in the Welsh seat of Montgomeryshire and Glyndwr two weeks after Mr Williams admitted having a "flutter" on the election date.

Mr Williams, right, is currently under investigation by the Gambling Commission, along with four other Tory politicians and officials.

During a campaign visit yesterday the Tory leader was repeatedly asked whether he had confided in Mr Williams ahead of his surprise announcement of a July election.

The PM swerved the question, saying: "I've been clear about this. I'm furious to have learnt about these allegations."
