I have some Busy Lizzie plug plants which are growing on nicely. Some of them although only 4" high are showing flower buds. Should I pinch these out to promote bushier growth or just let them grow on ?

In a word...Yes
Pinching them put will definitely make for a much better looking plant.
I was told to break off all the flowers when i bought pansies last winter for the same reason and it worked, the plants grew much thicker and produced lots of flowers and are in fact still flowering today and they were meant to be winter ony ones!
