Loose Women viewers have demanded that Janet Street-Porter is removed from the panel 'immediately' following a discussion between the 75-year-old and fellow journalist Charlene White. Like most topical television programmes, there has been much debate regarding the situation in Ukraine this week on the programme.
Today (March 1), the panel, led by Charlene White, discussed the personal impact the unfolding crisis in Ukraine has had on them. Charlene took the opportunity to mention the 'incessant racism' that Black and Asian people, amongst others, have faced whilst trying to flee war-torn Ukraine.
Speaking to her fellow panellists, the 41-year-old said: "There is one thing that has really shone a light on where I’m concerned and has really stuck out to me: in the midst of all of this, in the midst of people trying to flee from their homes, and in the midst of them trying to dodge bullets and bombs and bombardment, they still have time for racism.
