Piers Morgan finally sacked from GMB [title edited by MNHQ at OP's request]

[FlyingByTheSeatof]

I wonder if the Royal Family stepped in for this to happen

Hoo bloody rah. He can take his stalkeration tendencies and fuck off.

I have a horrible theory, though- he's quit on purpose to generate maximum publicity and fuss before....signing on for TrumpTV.

Nigel Garage is quitting politics too so it must definitely be happening. Katie Hopkins is also pretty free these days. What a breakfast show of horrors they would all be! Argh!

I am SO relieved. It’s so damaging having such a horrible bully on such a huge platform.
He is so happy to dehumanise everyone he speaks to.
Im no fan of Tories. (I despise their policies) but even I found his “interviews” with Tories over the past year cringe-worthy and tie curling. His interview style is just to bullishly shout over people. I think he needs to go back to presenting college, he’s really missing some key fundamentals!

Great news!
40,000 complaints. ITV couldn't ignore this.
He may be moving to Andrew Neil's new TV network. I'd be surprised if he did.

Please can someone post a link to where he stormed off and said something to Charlotte, can’t find it on YouTube

I’d love it to be Eamon! He’s great

@RootyT00t

Piers spoke previously to that about the ability of journos to hack voicemails.

Just because he left doesn't mean he cut all ties and was clueless.

Even more confused now. Things that happened 7 years after he left, what do you mean by he hadn't cut all ties after that long?

His obsession with her is very odd, kind he really really hates her..so much passion😬he’s so angry all the time...

Nooo not Eamonn. I would be complaining to Ofcom about that.

@HarryorHas yes it's weird - and she never responds. Yet he keeps belching out more crap. Being his wife must be shitty. Maybe she posts about it on the relationships board.

Watching him on TV and in the papers was like watching a live stalking day and night. Just awful.

There's many ways GMB could have fired him; for racism... for sexism.. for racist sexism ... and for bringing the organisation into disrepute. 41,000 disreputes.

Make no mistake he loved the limelight too much to leave ..that abusive thing was pushed.

Piers Morgan is a Grade A cunt. Long overdue. Saw the clip and Alex was great
But part of the problem is the whole divisive sensationalist culture. I saw a poll that they did when it found its way into my Twitter feed. The poll was "would you report your neighbour for breaking Covid rules" They had got Kate Garraway to present the segment knowing damn well that no one would dare object because of her husband being ill with Covid in hospital, I found this manipulative and sneaky because they knew no member of the public would dare object lest they be branded a Covid denier. Ditto the staff at GMB. Its not objective and not the correct way for a "news" show to do things. It also flies in the face of their mental health campaign and their trite Britain Keep Talking slogan. Some ppl probably have visited family when they are not supposed to because they have reached the end of their tether.

And agree with the consensus here on PM Should have gone a long time ago. Telling everyone to suck it up and cancel their Christmas while fucking off to Antigua was the height of hypocrisy.

Racist misogynistic hypocrite.

OP, I doubt that the Royal Family had anything to do with this. I expect 40,000 complaints to Ofcom did.

Though if the Royal Family want to arrange sackings, can I ask Mr Boris Johnson is dismissed under the Royal Pregogative please.

PMs behaviour has been getting much worse lately and definitely over the line of 'this is my opinion' to 'I am a ranting prejudiced bully'. The way he kept speaking over people in the last few days has been unbelievable.

One thing that really has been bothering me about her comments on mental health help is a thing which no one seems to have picked up on. She didnt say she wanted mental health help and didnt get it, she actually said she wanted to 'go somewhere' which sounds like being checked into a MH facility. And was told she couldn't because it 'wouldnt look good'. Which sounds quite believable. So sad for them. I am sure they are not perfect, but the way they have been treated is appalling. So glad PM is out.

Meh! Hell be back after a short break. On another show prob on same/more money

Wow, I don't watch this programme as I'm not in the UK but a clip of it just came up in my youtube. That guy Alex has the patience of a saint staying calm when he was interrupted constantly.

@nitsandwormsdodger

The queen does not hire and fire tv personalities you are confusing her with simon cowell

Maybe she wanted to go home. She wouldn't be the first pregnant woman far from home who wanted her mum and her familiar life.

To be fair the Tories were generally pretty toe curling without any help from him.

It was only a matter of time very similar to Katie Hopkins they gain attention then loose track of reality ,get carried away and fall on there own sword.

Can't stand him, glad he's gone. He made some good points but was OTT belligerent and obnoxious, particularly re Covid. The constant frothing and raging re MM was bizarre. If I were his wife I'd be concerned he feels that strongly about another woman!

Tbh though, I'm annoyed THIS is the hill he's finally died on, as I can't stand Harry and Meghan either, and I feel this is a win for them and their interview somehow.

I'd replace both him and Susanna, with Bradley Walsh and Lucy Alexander. Let's have some positivity and humour first thing!

Whats with the ticking clock gif hes tweeted?

Gary Linekar has tweeted his support for Piers Morgan. Disappointed in him...I thought he was decent.

Sharon Osbourne too, but Ive always thought she was a twat.

I think the fact that ITV put money and viewings before the harm his words cause is a sad indictment on today's society.

I watched a clip today where he made his female colleague stand and turn around on live TV because she had a dress on that showed her legs. He is undoing so much hard-won progress for women's rights, racial equality, and mental health, all with impunity. Good riddance!

No doubt PM will end up on that new UK version of fox news but at least he won't be on mainstream TV anymore. He's got the biggest ego and is so proud of his Twitter following. Attention is what he craves so this will be a blow to him.

He'll join News UK TV or GB News.

They’re all worried about what Piers has in them.
