<p><br /> It seems that David Cameron has secured the backing of former prime minister Tony Blair, or so a new video would have us believe.<br /> </p><p><br /> Mr Blair appears to place a £100 bet on the Tory leader to win the General Election, before knocking over a cardboard cut-out of Gordon Brown.<br /> </p><p><br /> But far from Mr Blair having switched allegiances from Labour, it is actually the latest lookalike spoof from photographer and director Alison Jackson.<br /> </p><p><br /> Jackson has been signed up by bookmakers Ladbrokes to produce a "What are the odds?" campaign around the General Election and World Cup.<br /> </p><p><br /> The video, released on the internet, sees Mr Blair's lookalike walking into a branch of Ladbrokes after considering posters of all three party leaders. He fills out a betting slip with the words "Cameron to win" before peeling off five £20 notes from a thick wad and placing his bet.<br /> </p><p><br /> On his way out of the shop, he pushes over a cut-out of Mr Brown which is placed between cardboard versions of Mr Cameron and Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg.<br /> </p>
