Has Kemi Badenoch, done enough?

 The respective opinion polls suggest the following: Labour 27 per cent, Reform 22 per cent, Conservatives, 20 per cent, Lib/Dems 11 per cent and Greens 11 per cent. There has been a small Burnham - bounce for Labour following their party conference, but not sufficient to give them a majority in a general election - if it was called today. Labour would have the largest number of seats in the House of Commons, but not enough to form a government. So there would be a lot of negotiations and - horse trading. They need 326 seats to form a government. The most likely scenario would be a Labour and Lib/Dem coalition government, but it wouldn’t be very stable and the likelihood is another election within a year or so. We need a long period of stability as the - world is a very uncertain and unpredictable at present. God knows what will happen in the French presidential elections next spring and will Marine Le Pen, become president? The first extreme right wing candidate.
