Encourage Theresa May to participate in televised election debates
We want a commitment from Theresa May that she and other leaders will participate in such debates regardless of advice from election campaign advisors or current ratings in popularity polls.
Why is this important?
The previous two sets of leader debates on TV were interesting, informative and positive for the democratic process. We want everyone to have the option of potentially benefiting from such debates at this election and prior to all future general election polling days.
Not only would we like Theresa May to change her mind and participate in 3 live TV debates, we would also like her to help enshrine the process so all future general elections involve these televised debates.
We hear lots about media bias, 'fake news', 'out of touch' politicians and disengagement from the political process. The precedent has been set and Theresa May should endorse and support the process.
