Rejected petition Force the party leaders to a T.V debate for the general election.

With Teresa May calling a snap general election on June 8th,
the Country deserves to hear a full debate by all the leaders.
As a precedent has been set over the past two elections for T.V debates,
let's put it into statute to hold public debate prior to a general election.

More details

Teresa May believes that she can take control of the country without being challenged on brexit, the NHS, social care, the economy, immigration.
It is our democratic right to hear the debate!
David Cameron did not want to take part in T.V debates however conceded under pressure from the public brodcasters.
