Good Morning Britain viewers were left infuriated after a guest on the ITV show attempted to defend Sir Keir Starmer amid allegations that he broke coronavirus lockdown rules in December 2020. The controversy surrounds a voice coaching session the Labor leader attended, which critics argue violated the restrictions in place at the time.
Labor peer Baroness Ayesha Hazarika and former Downing Street Director of Communications Guto Harri joined GMB hosts Susanna Reid and Ed Balls for a heated debate on the topic. The discussion centered on the fact that police have opted not to take any action regarding the claims. Baroness Hazarika attempted to downplay the situation, calling it a “last ditch” effort by the Tories and Reform UK to “rehash” the Covid story. She remarked: “They’re sort of trying to say ‘oh well, he’s the same as Boris Johnson.’”
