LONDON (AP) — The U.K. general election on July 4 is just days away now no doubt to the relief of the party leaders who have crisscrossed the country in a grueling month of campaigning. Another week has ended and it doesn’t seem that the campaign has shifted the political dial much if at all. The left-of-center Labour Party still clear favorite to defeat Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s Conservatives and return to power for the first time in 14 years. Labour leader Starmer is about 40 to 1 on to be prime minister come Friday. That’s not much of a bet. One would need to put on 40 pounds to get one pound in return!
