It can be enough but only if the sample is representative and I think often these are done by calling people on landline and the people who still have a landline and would be willing to take a survey are a very specific subset of our population so probably that sample is not representative but it’s not due to the sample size.

YouGov has published a page about its polling methodology. Polling groups abandoned the random telephone survey decades ago, at this point.

Cool, in my country they still do that unfortunately.

that sample size is still way too small

But the headline creates clicks and engagement and that's what matters most.
