Why can't the other parties simply hold their own debate, and leave an empty chair for the Tories?
I'd still watch, and surely viewing figures are all the networks care for?
I voted Tory last time. I'm undecided currently, If the Tories won't get involved, I'm not voting for them - a party demonstrating a lack of backbone and trying to weasel it's way around what it perceives to be difficult issues tells me all I need to know.

Cameron is usually pretty good when it comes to PR. On this issue he's messed up. It takes something to makes Miliband more "Prime Ministerial" than he is, but he's done it here.

It's 'lose'.Lose.
Lose.

I have no doubt he is trying to use it to his own advantage, but he does have a point. If we take the last general election as a basis then the Greens beat UKIP (1-0)
If we take the last "national election", i.e, the Euros, then the Greens beat the LibDems (3-1).
So there is a strong rationale for their inclusion. Also does balance the field up.
So less cowardice, more the use of factual data in pursuit of electoral advantage. If Farage did something similar you'd admire him for his cunning. In fact you have
