Good Morning Britain has come under fire after its presenters were accused of unfair and 'patronising' treatment towards a guest on the show. Richard Madeley was back at the helm of the ITV programme on Monday (April 11) alongside Ranvir Singh as they interviewed an activist about the recent oil protests.
During the show Miranda Whelehan, who is an activist for Just Stop Oil, appeared alongside journalist Lowri Turner to debate the effectiveness of the protests. This comes after Just Stop Oil activists dug an underground tunnel to block fuel tankers and forced a petrol station in the south to close this weekend, to which Home Secretary Priti Patel branded the protests 'selfish'.
Host Richard Madeley was in the midst of interviewing the young activist when viewers accused him of 'bullying'. The discussion quickly got heated when Miranda attempted to defend the actions of the campaign group, who are demanding the ceasing of all new oil licences in the UK.
