Exactly one month before voters head to the polling stations, Sunak and Starmer will go head-to-head in a debate that is being moderated by journalist Julie Etchingham. An opportunity for the major political party leaders to get across their message, it will take place in front of a live studio audience.
Now a regular occurrence ahead of a general election, the first TV debate in the UK took place 14 years ago and was a huge moment for the Liberal Democrats who shot up 14 percentage points in the polls after a strong showing from then-leader Nick Clegg. Then in 2017, Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn chose to skip the TV debates and were heavily criticised for it.
This time around the first of numerous TV debates will solely feature the party leaders of Labour and the Conservatives and will likely set the tone for upcoming debates in the weeks leading up to the general election on July 4.
The debate kicks off tonight at 9pm so read on to discover exactly how to watch Sunak vs Starmer: The ITV debate for free, no matter where you are in the world.
