General Election 2019 Boris Johnson Refuses To Confirm Andrew Neil Interview

Boris Johnson has refused to say whether he will take part in a BBC interview with presenter Andrew Neil.

The leaders of Labour, the SNP, the Lib Dems and the Brexit Party have all agreed to be questioned for 30 minutes by the journalist.

But when asked several times by the BBC’s Ben Wright if he would appear, the prime minister would not confirm it, saying he would have “all sorts of interviews with all sorts of people”.

Labour accused him of “running scared”.

On Wednesday, the BBC Press Office tweeted it was “in ongoing discussions” with No 10, but said they had not “yet been able to fix a date” for the sit-down discussion between Mr Neil and the PM.

Conservative leader Mr Johnson – who faced Andrew Neil during the Conservative leadership election in July – confirmed negotiations were still taking place, but he said it was “not my job” to make the final decision.

He added: “Other people than me are responsible for those discussions and negotiations, and I do not want to pre-empt what they may decide.”

When it was put to Mr Johnson that his critics would say he was avoiding scrutiny, he replied: “I’m very happy to submit to all manner of scrutiny, all manner of debates and have done so, and lots of conversations are happening about that matter right now.”

SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon and Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn took part in interviews with Mr Neil earlier this week.

The interview with Lib Dem leader Jo Swinson is set to air on 4 December and another with Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage will be shown on 5 December.

Labour Party chairman Ian Lavery said of Mr Johnson: “He’s running scared because every time he is confronted with the impact of nine years of austerity, the-cost-of-living crisis and over his plans to sell out our NHS, the more he is exposed.”

A live TV election debate featuring representatives from seven political parties takes place on BBC One and the BBC News Channel on Friday at 19:00 GMT.

Senior figures from the Conservatives, Labour, Lib Dems, SNP, Greens, Plaid Cymru and the Brexit Party will take part in the event, chaired by Nick Robinson, in Cardiff.
