Lord Alan Sugar responds to Gary Lineker BBC row comments and gets into heated spat with Piers Morgan

Lord Sugar has had his say on the Gary Lineker row after his name was mentioned by his ex-pal Piers Morgan and other stars to highlight the BBC's alleged hypocrisy.

On Friday evening, the BBC announced that Lineker had been pulled off air from Saturday's Match Of The Day after a tweet of his appeared to draw comparisons between the government's new Illegal Migration Bill and Nazi Germany, writes The Mirror.

Lineker commented on the controversial bill which was unveiled by home secretary Suella Braverman on Tuesday, saying it was "beyond awful", later adding: "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."
