Ben Shephard was forced to step in as things grew increasingly tense during a debate on Good Morning Britain over recent comments made by Gary Lineker.
The BBC presenter has raised discussions after commenting on a video from the Home Office in which Suella Braverman outlined the Government's Illegal Immigration Bill. The Home Secretary said that the UK's asylum system has been "overwhelmed" by "unsafe, unncessecary and illegal" channel crossings, saying: "Enough is enough. We must stop the boats."
Writing on Twitter, the Match of the Day presenter said in response to the statement: "There is no huge influx. We take far fewer refugees than other major European countries. This is just an immeasurably cruel policy directed at the most vulnerable people in language that is not dissimilar to that used by Germany in the 30s, and I’m out of order?"
