Conservative leadership rivals clashed over Brexit in the first televised TV debate as Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt asked: "Where is Boris?"
Boris Johnson was "empty chaired" by debate host Channel 4 after the frontrunner to be the next Conservative leader and British prime minister declined to take part in the live televised event.
Johnson refused to go head-to head with his five leadership rivals - Jeremy Hunt, Sajid David, Dominic Raab, Rory Stewart and Michael Gove - saying it could be "cacophonous".
