Should I make this fold in the future ? It turned out to be a bad fold but, from what Ive read if there is a raise and reraise infront you should probably bail out ! any input would be great thanks

Ned_bg overplays his hand imo if you had some history with the guy and knew he was over agres pre you could think about it since you have him covered(you would still have over 10BB if you lost to him) but still a bad situation since you are covered by the UTG+2 opener that must have somekind of hand when he opens before so many players. I think in most cases you are lucky to get a 50/50 here and often you will be dominated by an overpair.
That's my thoughts but don't put too much into it im a cash player and im a pretty fishy tourney player
It's probably also important how far in the tourney you are and what is your goal get ITM or win the s**t

Depends on the opponents and the situation. Your M is around 20, you do not need to force things.
Here the chipleader raised it up and a small stack pushed all-in. If the chipleader was very active at the table, than both do not need to have very strong hands for this play and you may opt to push also.
If the chipleader was playing tight, than you have to fold.

I would insta call if I didn't have the chipleader behind me, but like shokaku mentioned this is a situation where your feel with the table is important.
