Susanna Reid received an overwhelming amount of support for her tough approach while interviewing a Conservative Member of Parliament. During Thursday's episode of Good Morning Britain, Chris Philp, the Minister for Policing, made an appearance to discuss various topics, including the controversial Rwanda Bill proposed by the government. As they delved into the recent debates surrounding the policy and the party's efforts to "stop the boats," Susanna and her co-host Ben Shephard accused Philp of making a "pointed" statement about gaining support from the House of Lords, which they believed would be an uphill battle.
The conversation then shifted to the government's decline in opinion polls, leading to a heated debate in which the MP claimed that the Opposition had "no plan" for issues such as immigration, policy, and the NHS. Susanna immediately challenged this statement, declaring that it was "simply not true." Both she and Philp began to speak over each other, raising their voices to make their points heard.
Eventually, the politician changed his tune and admitted that the Opposition may have "no new ideas" instead. This sparked another back-and-forth between the two, with Susanna questioning whether Prime Minister Rishi Sunak had been democratically elected by the people. As tensions rose, Philp leaned back in his chair, looking unimpressed with the direction the interview was taking.
Audiences watching from home were quick to express their thoughts on the intense discussion. One user, Chris, tweeted, "Christ, he's drowning and Susanna Reid is holding his head under water." Another, Karen, shared her excitement, saying, "There is a possibility here that this guy is going to lose his s*** live on #gmb, and I'm here for it." Many praised Susanna for "calling out" the MP on certain topics and for the intense scrutiny he was facing.
This interview came just a day after Susanna found herself in a different kind of scuffle on set. During a debate on plane etiquette, she accidentally got kicked in the head by former politician Ed Balls, who was demonstrating the situation. As she held her head in shock, Ed apologized profusely for his mistake. However, the rest of the show went on without any further incidents.
