Ridge, Coates and Rigby on Sky are really showing how it should be done.
They were quick to switch to Millbank yesterday and hand it over to the Politics Live team so extending that through to today could have been an option. I don't think it's a case that today's coverage should have been in the hands of the news channel team but that the dedicated BBC election coverage should have continued, even if it only aired on the news channel.
Talking of Jo Coburn does she have a regular cover presenter on Politics Live? I do think she is a much better presenter than the format she now has to work with.
