When it was put to Sir Keir that his party was “well ahead” in the polls, he told the BBC: “Every single vote has to be earned, no seat has been won and polls do not predict the future.
“What we’re doing is taking our positive message to as many doorsteps as we can, saying this is a chance for change.”
When asked if any doubts “creep into his mind” on the campaign trail, he said: “In the end you have to focus on the general election itself and the day people go into the ballot box and make their choice.
“If you want an end to this chaos and division then vote for it; then we can start the journey of rebuilding the country.”
Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey was also in Yorkshire earlier, visiting Whinfell Quarry Gardens in Sheffield.
