Richard Madeley issued a statement on Good Morning Britain after facing backlash over his comments about Keir Starmer.
Earlier this week, it was reported that an investigation had been launched into death threats made against Sir Keir Starmer, after Boris Johnson made the false claim that the Labour leader failed to prosecute paedophile Jimmy Savile.
On Tuesday's GMB, Richard spoke about the threats that the politician had been experiencing from internet trolls, including death threats.
