General election: Liberal Democrats launch legal action over debate exclusion

The majority of Labour, Conservative, Lib Dem and Remain voters supported the move, while a slim majority of Leave voters - 40% to 38% - were against it.

"Politicians are obviously entitled to have a view on our decisions, but who is invited to take part in a programme is ultimately a matter for ITV," he added.'They're running scared': Swinson on debate format "It's time the Westminster establishment stopped running scared. The SNP are ready to take on the Tories and Labour anytime, anyplace."

But as there are now multiple proposals for double-headed debates, Sky News believes it is sensible to suggest an alternative approach that will allow the public to properly scrutinise a wider range of views.

joswinson Quite rightly so should not be included in any talks cause you and your pathetic party don't believe in our democracy no one with any sense would vote for such people pay back time

joswinson Legal action should be brought to ensure politicians honour the referendum.

joswinson Attention seeker! All joswinson would say is we are revoking article 50! 😡

joswinson She’s a lunatic with an annoying voice who does not understand democracy. I can’t wait till she looses and gets back in her box. Looks like they will let anyone in the House of Commons. Actually she puts the common in the Commons.

joswinson Good to see the priorities with a general election looming 🙄

joswinson ITV probably thinking that they've already got one Tory on.

joswinson This seems to be the attitude of all liberals now , that if they don’t have it their way they will take court action against you ....Parents to blame for never saying no to their little luvvies

joswinson It's not against women we know what she has to say like Ian black ford you could play a recording ! But I want the two leaders of main party only when there are too many it's not a debate it's just a furore and biased media let it get out of hand so just the two !

joswinson Let her take part. She will make a proper arse of herself.

joswinson Dummy pram and baby comes to mind

joswinson what is the legal basis for this can I take legal action against itv too as I hav'nt been included either.

joswinson She’s not involved because the Lib Dems are an irrelevant party!! They will get nowhere near any sort of power in GE2019 and the fact she thinks she can become PM is laughable 🤣🤣🤣

joswinson Minnow thinks itself a big fish😂.

joswinson Why didn't they do what we have to do ? Complain to Ofcom ,they are the people who set the rules . Or is that only for commoners? Beneath Swinson to associate with the low caste

joswinson Get all the party leaders on ITV, give them cream pies and buns each. Then... FIGHT.....!

joswinson Honestly, what difference does it make

joswinson I am launching my own court case against Manchester United. I have been a life long fan (I’m 65)and yet still they refuse to have me even on the subs bench.

joswinson ITV get enough whining in the soaps they show, they don’t need you on the channel to be fair.

joswinson 🙄🤡 This is what happens when you don't teach children the meaning of the word NO and everyone has to have a participation medal!

joswinson 😂 * off to fetch more popcorn! *

joswinson She's really desperate.

joswinson joswinson stop throwing your toys out of the pram just because your. It invited to the party Next I suppose you’re going to stamp your feet and make yourself sick until someone takes you seriously 😂😂
