In another development, Sunak aide Craig Williams is also under investigation by the Gambling Commission for placing a 100 pound ($128) bet on a July election before the date had been announced.

I don't know how much the other guy bet but this one is more concerning from the betting website point of view, he basically placed 100 bets on a 5:1 a few days before the announcement and it got flagged as suspicious, there should be a limit how "suspicious" works here. I don't think they will care about the bets that were placed at lower odds and with more money and lost but what was that out of the ordinary on a 5:1 bet, I would have also flagged it if it were a 250:1 and maybe this was the only guy that bet more than £1 but this is just nuts.
