        So the Tory position is that it's Channel 4's fault that Boris is maintaining his cowardice in the face of questioning and not turning up to a scheduled debate to which he has been invited?

        Exactly. Boris has been invited. Therefore, like anyone of us he has a right to decline an invitation.

        'Support us or we'll shut you down or replace your staff with people who will'. Is that how they did it with the BBC?
