Susanna Reid was forced to step in before credits rolled on Wednesday's Good Morning Britain to issue an apology over a comment from a guest about the death penalty for gay people in Caribbean countries.
As well as the ongoing conflict in war-torn Ukraine once again being a major talking point on the ITV breakfast show, Susanna and co-host Richard Madeley were joined by studio guests including journalists Andrew Pierce and Kevin Maguire to discuss the fact that Boris Johnson will meet the Crown Prince days after a huge public execution in Saudi Arabia as he seeks to boost Gulf oil production.
Maguire described the decision as "grotesque double standards," and "the worst hypocrisy," and during the conversation, Pierce, claimed that parts of the Caribbean have the death penalty for homosexuality as he appeared to defend Saudi Arabia.
