The Green Party has accused David Cameron of 'further damaging trust' in British Politics after he proposed cutting the number of television debates from three to one.
The Greens will take part in the debates, with or without the Prime Minister.
A spokesperson for the party said:
'This swerve by Cameron will further damage trust in our political system. Not only is Cameron's announcement cowardly but it also shows his contempt for the electorate. People want to see a set of debates between all major party leaders, yet the Prime Minister is clearly scared of scrutiny.
Natalie is very much looking forward to debating with the other 6 party leaders. David Cameron must not be allowed to scupper these plans.'
