Rejected petition David Cameron and Nigel Farage to hold at least two televised one to one debates

The EU referendum is the most important referendum in the UK for generations, and will decide the future of this country. The Prime Minister has been advocating EU reform and the results of his work should be properly debated with the main focal point of the Brexit side, Nigel Farage.

More details

In order for the UK public to be properly informed about what the EU referendum means for this country, televised debates of the same or similar format to the debates between Nigel Farage and Nick Clegg would allow the public to see both sides of the argument. It would give David Cameron the opportunity to explain his suggested reforms for the EU.
