LABOUR are demanding that the SNP and other smaller parties are cut from televised leadership debates during the General Election campaign,…
Broadcasters are reportedly focusing on two head-to-head contests between Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer before July 4.A head-to-head debate could benefit Labour given smaller leftwing parties are more likely to attack Starmer on his party's stance on green issues and Gaza.
Sunak, meanwhile, has accused Starmer of ducking TV debates because he lacked courage and “doesn’t have a plan” for the country.Writing for The Telegraph, Sunak said: “There are big issues at stake in this election. Do we continue cutting taxes or raise taxes on working households as Labour would do?
“I want to debate these issues with Sir Keir Starmer. But he doesn’t want to because he doesn’t have a plan and doesn’t have the courage to say what he wants to do.”We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
