MANCHESTER — The first televised debate of the 2017 UK general election takes place in Manchester tonight, where the main opposition leaders will do battle on ITV from 20:00 GMT.
The prime minister Theresa May has refused to take part in any debate with Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn and Corbyn has refused to take part in any debate that doesn’t include May. This means that only the smaller parties will be taking part.
The following party leaders will be on stage tonight:
- Tim Farron: Liberal Democrats
- Nicola Sturgeon: SNP
- Paul Nuttall: UKIP
- Caroline Lucas: Green Party
- Leanne Wood: Plaid Cymru.
19:38 — “It feels like GCSE results day”
The absence of Prime Minister May and Labour leader Corbyn presents a golden opportunity for the rest of Britain’s party leaders to impress — perhaps none more so than Lib Dem leader Tim Farron.
There has been lots of talk of a Lib Dem resurgence heading into this election but so far there has been no sign of a revival in the opinion polls. The Business Insider / GfK poll published this week put the anti-Brexit party on 7%.
The Lib Dem spinners in the room are nervous. “It feels like GCSE results day,” one tells me.

19:30 — Kick off is 30 minutes away
Business Insider Political Reporter Adam Payne here. I’ve arrived in Media City, Salford ahead of the leaders’ debate.
19:25 — What can we expect?
The debate is due to start at 20:00 GMT and will last a whopping two hours. The five leaders will get just one break during that time for adverts. Otherwise, it will be a non-stop battle which will be hosted by ITV’s Julie Etchingham. Will they last the distance? Will the audience? We’ll be live blogging the whole event and the aftermath live from Media City in Manchester.
