Clegg’s Farage TV challenge
NICK CLEGG challenged Ukip leader Nigel Farage to a televised debate about membership of the European Union during his LBC radio show yesterday.
A Liberal Democrat spokesman confirmed the challenge, adding: “While we completely disagree, both parties have a very clear position – Nick Clegg leads the party of in and Nigel Farage leads the party of out. There’s really not very much point debating the other two – neither of them have a clear position.”
Ukip remained tight-lipped about whether it would join the debate ahead of Farage’s appearance on today’s LBC show.
