Sky News has announced that it won’t be airing its Conservative leadership debate after candidates Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss recently pulled out of the event.
Kay Burley was set to host the debate, which was originally scheduled to air on Sky News tomorrow evening.
John Ryley, Head of Sky News, said in a statement: “Sky News has campaigned for an independent commission to organise the running of TV debates between leaders of Britain’s main parties.
“Sky News and other broadcasters worked successfully together on televised leadership debates ahead of the 2010 general election.”
