On the panel tonight will be the Green party’s Caroline Lucas, Tory Brandon Lewis and Labour’s Andy McDonald. Accompanying the three politicians will be journalist for The Economist Zanny Minton Beddoes and author, Lionel Shriver. However, following the release of the panel, viewers took to Twitter to voice their displeasure at the panel, with some accusing the debate programme of being “boring”. One user wrote: “O’dear. The panellists are getting worse. “Another week of not watching tripe!” Another said: “Question time becomes more and more boring and when it does get interesting, Fiona interrupts! “They are obviously playing safe with the panel in case she can’t control them! “Used to be such a good watch alas no longer.” A third person also wrote: “Not watching - stale format, usual platitudes, signifying nothing.”   The programme has in the past been criticised for allegedly being biased towards Remain supporters. Following that trend, users once again accused the broadcaster of having a Remain bias. One wrote: “More Remoaners, Stale and boring BBC.” Clare Jonathan said: “Another Remoaner dominated panel!”  Despite the claims of bias towards the BBC, the broadcaster has insisted it remains neutral on all matters as per its editorial guidelines. As stated in its guidelines, the BBC states: “The BBC is committed to achieving due impartiality in all its output. “This commitment is fundamental to our reputation, our values and the trust of audiences.” The news of the debate comes as Jeremy Corbyn unveiled a new policy whereby his party would pledge to plant two billion trees.   Moreover, the party would also create a further 10 national parks in what Mr Corbyn termed as his “radical and innovative” green manifesto. In yet another enormous pledge, the party would commit to spending £3.7billion on capital investment for the planting programme. Trending  This policy comes as the Labour party also released documents which showed initial negotiations between the UK and the US over a future trade deal and the NHS. Despite that, Mr Johnson insisted that the move from Labour was just a “diversionary tactic”.
