Should a Backbenches host be recruiting for the Greens?

If you swing Green and want to have your say on 2017 election issues, join up or renew your membership by Thursday! https://t.co/Cp0IlMt12M

I don’t think it is a great look for someone who co-hosts a politics show (Backbenches) to be actively recruiting members for a political party.

I’m a huge fan of Hayley, and think she is a good host on Backbenches. But MPs who go on Backbenches will wonder if they will get a fair go.
