    Channel 4 are putting giant blocks of ice on podiums to represent Johnson and Farage not turning up.



    Also, our Prime Minister sent his dad to cover for him.

    Can't watch it - on a train, but was surprised to see Caroline Lucas wasn't on it as she is on Question Time instead.

    Appropriate that Johnson was sending the Snowman to stand in for him ;)

    Bleating about it on Twitter that they wouldn't allow a stand in....it was for LEADERS !!!

    Whilst its quite funny on the face of it, C4 could have dropped themselves in bother.
    During the election period of 'purdah', bodies in the media have to be really careful to remain impartial and they may well have left themselves open to a charge.

    They were invited and expected....they are still welcome to appear on the channel and be asked the questions.....the Tories are trying it on for a change. Gove even turned up with a camera crew in tow for a quick edit and propaganda push.

    God help the BBC then. It has morphed into Tory Central.

    Gove is currently just a parliamentary candidate, so he was right to be denied access. He’s not a Minister, he’s not an MP. Simple as that.

    Impartial like the BBC favourably editing clips of Boris and Setting up agressive interviews with all party leaders except Johnson - that sort of impartial?
    Channel 4 have been the most impartial broadcaster in recent times and are paying for it because they arent following the pro Tory agenda.

    Had they put a tub of lard or a spitting image puppet on a pedestal there might be some merit in criticism but an Ice sculpture of the planet is fairly tame

    The mad thing is Boris can lie , not turn up for debates , not turn up for interviews and half the county just shrugs and votes for him. No doubt Channel 4 will suffer severely once the Tories are in and have a majority but a large part of the population wont care
