British broadcaster Channel 4 represented Prime Minister Boris Johnson with a block of melting ice in a prime-time election debate on the environment on Thursday, prompting his Conservative Party to complain this broke impartiality rules.

The broadcaster invited leaders of all Britain's main political parties to take part in the debate before election, but both Johnson and the leader of the Brexit Party declined to attend.
