At 19:30 BST all five remaining candidates will take part in the first leadership debate, broadcast on Channel 4. But what is the format?

They will be answering questions from an "audience of floating voters" which have been chosen and vetted by polling firm Survation, Channel 4 has confirmed.

Each candidate will be first to answer a question at least once, with around seven to nine minutes scheduled for each segment.

The host will be the broadcaster's lead presenter Krishnan Guru-Murthy, who will follow up and clarify the candidates' answers as needed.

Once the questions have wrapped up, they will be given around 45 seconds for a closing statement - with the order allotted randomly ahead of the broadcast."

Time to grab the popcorn...

Perfectly timed for when we’re getting ready for the football. [emoji849]

Not that I was interested anyway [emoji1787]

lad said it looks like a game show. missus turned over when Truss started speaking.

due to lack of other options we've gone back. Truss is trying to channel both Thatcther and Blair which is an interesting trick.

She does look like she’s popped down to Madame Tussaud’s and asked if she could borrow Margaret Thatchers outfit from circa 1987. Plus she seems to be trying to borrow her voice and delivery too

Cut the green levies, yeah like the warm home discount. That will help the poor.

This "electorate" are 50% pensioners and 80% relatively wealthy by class.

As you say, let them get on with selecting their moron of choice.

It amused me, right at the end, when Sunak said "The one thing all of us agree on is to reduce tax", yet spent most of the programme deriding the others for advocating the same.

It was all a load of shite, mostly, but the only one who came out (for me) with any credibilty was TT, who at least admitted that he didn't think Johnson was an honest man.
