ITV Good Morning Britain's Richard Madeley under fire for 'childish' remark to guest

Richard Madeley has come under fire for his interview with a guest on Good Morning Britain.

Activist Miranda Whelehan was on the show to discuss whether oil protests are justified following disruption across the UK at the weekend. Just Stop Oil blocked access to oil terminals for ten days, as they demanded the Government stop new oil and gas projects.

Speaking about the protests, Miranda, 20, said: "I mean I don't think any of us want to be disrupting people's lives but I think given the science and the things that academics are saying about what oil is causing around the world and in this country to, this is the level of action that needs to be taken when our government is failing on their energy policies and climate pledges."
