There are several reasons - seven million to be more precise - as to why the outcome of this general election is not a foregone conclusion.
Yes, Labour are way ahead in the polls, consistently so, by 20 plus points in most cases.

And yes, Reform UK are snapping at Tory heels following Nigel Farage’s dramatic comeback that has seen support for the insurgent party rocket.
But with a week to go until polling day, there is still a huge chunk of voters who are yet to make up their minds.
According to Tory and Labour sources as many seven million “undecideds” an “uncertains” are still up for grabs.

That is why last night’s Wednesday night’s BBC showdown between Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer was so important.
Some 3.2 million people tuned in to watch the final debate of the campaign - albeit, fewer than the 4.2 million who watched Georgia’s surprise Euro 2024 win over Portugal on ITV - a decent chunk of the electorate.
It was no wonder that Sunak put in a man-of-the-match performance which left Starmer floundering.
This was backed up by an exclusive Express poll which showed 70% of people thought the Prime Minister “won” the debate.
Sir Keir was left trailing in his wake on 11% with another 11% of viewers saying neither leader won and 8% said “don’t know”.
Labour certainly aren’t taking anything for granted despite their seemingly unassailable poll lead.
Candidates are urging voters not to stay at home on polling day.
Don’t assume anything about the result.

The same is true for the Conservatives with their warnings of a Labour “supermajority” and that a vote for Reform will see Keir Starmer in No 10.
There might be only 7-days left in the campaign but there's plenty still to play for.
