Good Morning Britain turned tense on Thursday morning as hosts Ben Shephard and Kate Garraway presided over a debate on Gary Lineker’s criticism of the government's asylum policy.
The Match of the Day host tweeted saying the language setting out the plan was 'not dissimilar to that used by Germany in the 30s’, prompting questions over his impartiality as a BBC presenter.
Good Morning Britain hosts Kate and Ben posed the question of whether celebrity public figures should weigh in to such debates, as they spoke with broadcaster and writer Terry Christian and political commentator Dominique Samuels in the ITV studio.
