The Morning Poll: What would you do if you won the lottery?

A lot of us fantasise about one day getting lucky and winning the lottery.

But for Paul Davy that dream came true when he won the National Lottery jackpot of  £1,000,002.40 and became a millionaire. 

Since 2018, Davy and 15 colleagues have clubbed together to play the lottery as a syndicate, and finally hit the big time.

‘I was a millionaire for the weekend, but on Monday I went to the bank and transferred everyone in the group their money,’ he says. ‘You would think seeing the money go would be heartbreaking, but there is a real joy in sharing the win.’ 

Each member of the syndicate has ended up with £66,666.82. 

It’s hard not to imagine how life might change with a winning ticket – even more so if you had the full £1,000,000 to yourself. So what would you do if you hit the jackpot?
