Martin Lewis and Susanna Reid have invited the next prime minister to answer questions about the cost-of-living crisis on their new Good Morning Britain slot titled Martin’s Money Mondays. Lewis, dubbed the Money Saving Expert, will offer viewers the most up-to-date information and he and Reid will “hold politicians to account” over the crisis every Monday in September.
Discussing the importance of the show in the current economic climate, Reid said Lewis is the “hero we all need right now”. She told the PA news agency: “It is the one thing that everybody is talking about, thinking about, worrying about, concerned about.
“People need answers and what I think is so perfect about Martin being on the show on a Monday is that even if the politicians can’t provide answers, Martin always has suggestions, always has solutions. I know that he personally feels like he is running out of options, but at least you know that with Martin you’re not just getting somebody who is going to ask the right questions but he’s also got all this information at his fingertips.
