Bold mine. - Could the big map outside NBH be coming back? They must have it stored away somewhere surely...
Might make up for the rather tight cramp squeeze of Studio B vs Elstree D.

Yet there he was in 2010 standing alongside David Cameron and Gordon Brown. On ITV.
I do not know what reality the Lib Dem leader is living in, but it is not our reality. Even Nick Clegg knew he was never going to be Prime Minister.

But that’s all subjective though and electoral broadcasting regulations can’t be subjective. By the way I’m not commenting on whether this decision is in line with the regulations or not, just making the point it’s not a case of the broadcaster basing the decision on what they see as the likely outcome.
I don't think its a deliberate snub to Jo Swinson. In all honesty Corbyn and Johnson are the only reasonable candidates for Prime Minister and its received wisdom to have a debate between the two.

Not if it rains, otherwise we'll end up with a Sophie Raworth rendition of Singing in the Rain.

Hmm, yes its a good point but as this quote points out they broadcasters are erring on the side of caution:

Quote:
Jo Swinson says she wants to be prime minister - but how credible is that?
The Lib Dems are not at the moment even the third largest party in the UK.
Ms Swinson cites the example of the SNP surge in 2015, when the party won almost every seat in Scotland - and she personally lost her seat to the SNP candidate.
She argues that politics is volatile, it is in flux, and things have changed because of Brexit - people are voting for very different reasons. Therefore, there is no reason why the party can't be incredibly ambitious, she argues.
But the problem for the Liberal Democrats is that the way their votes are distributed around the country, it is much harder for them to win seats than for other parties.
In 2010, they won seven million votes but got fewer than 60 seats.

Just a general reminder to everyone to keep their posts to the presentation related aspects. Posts which are entirely or mostly politics related will be removed or edited to remove the politics. Repeat offenders may also be issued with warnings.
(Adding a single sentence that's presentation related to a post whose other sentences/paragraphs are politics related doesn't mean the entire post is suddenly presentation related.)

It’s not subjective - it’s based on fact. The broadcasters base their coverage on current polling and recent electoral performance. There are no indicators on either to suggest Swinson will be our next prime minister.
