I think Johnson is a decent at interviews, far better than Corbyn

Really? I think he's only done two, one of which was widely regarded as a draw with JC (that rubbish first ITV one) and the other he was incompetent in. I think that's had a big bearing on why he's refusing the Andrew Neil and ITV ones. He doesn't debate, he blusters, sidetracks and makes the lines he's fed by advisors so obvious that they end up being met with groans rather than applause. Corbyn (and all other politicians) do it some degree but it's far more blatant with Johnson. 

As an aside, was there one on last night? I saw it was "leaders debate" trending on twitter with lots of pro-Corbyn comments but couldn't see anything in the listings.

A senior Conservative source has claimed the public are “fed up” with TV interviews that are “all about the interviewer”.

It comes after veteran broadcaster Andrew Neil called on Boris Johnson to face him in an interview. The Tory candidate for prime minister has refused to do an interview on Neil’s BBC show.

“The public are fed up with interviews that are all about the interviewer and endless interruptions,” said the source.

“The format is broken and needs to change if it is to start engaging and informing the public again."

Expect to see this being pushed by Johnson's apologists.

Not true. Johnson has been on the streets campaigning exactly the same. He was in Weston a few weeks ago where he visited a homeless shelter, the local hospital and walked the high street where he was met by left wing demonstrators. It might not make the press like Corbyn likes to highlight when he does these things but I think you will find all party leaders will be out on the campaign trail.

No. Johnson has not done what everyone else has done. Cummings won't let him because he knows he's a liability.

He's scuttled around safe seats  - like Weston and the south-west. He stage managed his boat interview the other day when no-one knew he was there. Blimey an ass with a blue rosette would win in Weston.

He's avoided ITV, Andrew Neil, Newsnight, Channel 4 and the climate change debate.

He's banned a journalist from his battle bus.

He's closed down questions and walked off stage when he can't cope.

He's refused to do his own hustings, not once but twice.

So, yeah, let's pretend he is available to scrutiny in the same way as everyone else, and he's a very honest and open man.

Actually he isn't.

I don't understand the fascination with television interviews, except it makes politicians squirm a little, a politicians out is lie and deflect which they all do so why does it matter they do it on camera.... or in the press..... or walking the streets.

It would be a refreshing change if one of them... any one.... stood up and stated that the manifesto is just a wish list. We don't have the money for 80% of it, we have no intention to fulfil 15% and the 5% we do try to accomplish we will probably fail miserably to complete or go so far over budget we will have to U turn in a way to suggest we didn't U turn, but we can always blame the opposition..... followed by what they really wanted to do and what they could realistically afford to do.
