Sunak v Starmer: The ITV Debate — release date, moderator and everything we know

Julie Etchingham.

Sunak v Starmer: The ITV Debate is the first head-to-head debate before the General Election, which takes place on Thursday, July 4.

With Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer ahead in the polls, he will be extra keen to ensure he doesn't make any big gaffs, while Prime Minister Rishi Sunak will be hoping this will provide a chance to kickstart his campaign.

Michael Jermey, ITV's Director of News and Current Affairs said: "Millions of viewers value the election debates. They provide a chance to see and hear the party leaders set out their pitch to the country, debate directly with each other and take questions from voters. ITV is pleased to be broadcasting the first debate in this year's election campaign."
