UK: PM Boris Johnson to face questions from the public in a live radio phone-in

on LBC from 0900GMT (0400ET, 1000CET).

- Johnson likely to face questions on the NHS and Brexit from the public, but

media focus on Johnson's no-show at a Channel 4 debate last night on climate

change.

- PM and Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage (who was also a no-show) were

'empty-seated' and instead represented by ice sculptures.

- This sparked a row between the Conservatives and Channel 4, with the PM's

party complaining to the communications regulator that the sculptures were a

"provocative partisan stunt, which would itself constitute making a political

opinion in its own right".

- Conservative source told Buzzfeed and Telegraph that "if we are re-elected we

will have to review Channel 4's Public Services Broadcasting obligations". But

this morning Minister Gavin Williamson denied any threat to C4.
