Miliband wants 'head-to-head debate' with Cameron

Ed Miliband has said David Cameron should "face the music" and agree to a head-to-head debate with him ahead of the general election.

The Labour leader's comments came as the prime minister announced he had accepted an offer to take part in one seven-way TV debate at the beginning of April.

Weeks of wrangling between the political parties and the BBC, Sky News, ITV and Channel 4 has cast doubt on whether the leaders' debates first held in 2010 will be repeated before the 7 May poll.

Earlier this month Mr Cameron rejected taking part in a head to head with Mr Miliband.
