Not least in dictating who can participate and who will be excluded!! One nation of the UK was completely excluded in this way (as per usual)!
it was channel 4 and it wasn't even an election debate, it was a leaders debate about climate change. farage and johnson refused to turn up (because they are both smarter than tens of thousands of scientists and don't believe in climate change) so channel 4 put ice sculptures on their empty podiums. that's it, that is all they did, nothing else. it was a slight dig at two no-shows, nothing more, and nothing political about it. then johnson/the tories had a strop and threatened to review channel 4's public service licence if they win and boris johnson's communications director complained to ofcom about it and ofcom have decided to not investigate because tories are dickheads, or some other reason.
