‘Triple-lock’ policy that guarantees increase in basic state pension each year could be ditched for weaker ‘double lock’ and money used for social care instead
“It’s a sign of weakness, not of strength, and we are continuing to press to have those debates, and to have a head-to-head with Theresa May, and we are confident that if the British public gets to see that debate,
with Theresa May having to face Jeremy Corbyn in a direct debate, they would respond to Labour’s message, and that’s one of the reasons they’re running scared.”
The televised debates were a key part of the 2010 campaign, when Nick Clegg caught the public’s attention and both David Cameron and Gordon Brown found themselves admitting “I agree with Nick”.
In 2015 the Conservatives pressed for more parties, including the Greens and the SNP, to be involved, and David Cameron and Ed Miliband also faced separate television grillings.

若首相不出席辯論會 那柯賓也不會參加「首相覺得自己無法與另一個可能成為政府領導者的人面對面辯論,真是奇觀。」
