As a nation, we are used to seeing two major political parties in the limelight, these are usually the Conservatives and Labour. However, in recent years UKIP has formed a huge following with Nigel Farage who seems to be relatable to many members of the British public. As a result of this UKIP has started to form major debate in British society with many pro and against.

Due to the controversy surrounding this political party BBC and ITV have decided to include this party in a TV political debate due to take place in April. The debate was originally due to be between the Liberal Democrats, Labour, The Conservatives and of course UKIP. Mr Cameron has decided this isn’t fair it would seem. Although these are at current the most popular parties he feels it’s unfair that UKIP a ‘minor party’ is included yet other minor parties aren’t.

On BBC Breakfast the prime ministers said “the point I made was that you couldn't have one minor party, UKIP without having another minor party, the Greens." One belief on why Mr Cameron has made a point of wanting to include other minor parties; Greens, SNP and Plaid Cymru is that he doesn’t want to debate Farage alone.

We have all seen Farage sitting in the pub debating away with colleges and due to this is Mr Cameron is worried about going head-to-head with him and wants other parties involved to diffuse the tension. Also should we have all the parties in a TV debate or just the two main ones? Well Channel Four and Sky believe we should only focus on the two main parties therefore they will be hosting a debate only between The Conservatives and Labour; which Mr Cameron hasn’t seemed to argue against.
