Ed Balls was left groaning as a debate turned in to a shouting match on Good Morning Britain. The former Labour MP was back fronting the ITV news programme on Thursday (February 16) alongside Ranvir Singh.
And one of the topics up for discussion on the show was whether the Crown Jewels should be returned to their geographical origins ahead of the coronation this year. It comes after it was announced that the controversial Koh-i-noor diamond will not feature in the coronation of the Queen Consort, with Camilla opting to reuse the crown it was once set in instead.
The famous gem was first set in a cross at the front of Queen Mary’s crown when it was worn at her coronation in 1911 but it was replaced by a replica in 1937 when the original was moved to the Queen Mother's crown for her and George VI’s coronation.
