Still no sign of Boris Johnson as live debates begin on Channel 4

The first live Conservative party leadership discussion gets underway tonight on Channel 4.

Jeremy Hunt, Michael Gove, Dominic Raab, Sajid Javid and Rory Stewart have been laying out their stands to try to secure enough support to get through the next round.

But there’s still no sign of Boris Johnson. He is still the frontrunner but has been avoiding the media.
