Boris Johnson is asked on BBC Breakfast if he knows where Theresa May was during Wednesday night's debate.
"I don’t know exactly where she was but I know she was absolutely right not to appear," he says.
He repeats his allegation that the debate was an "echo chamber for left-wing views".
He also argues that EU officials, if they had been watching, "would have learned absolutely nothing of value" about Labour's approach to Brexit talks.
"I trust Theresa May to get a great deal for this country and a great deal for Europe," the foreign secretary says.
