Here for it

[Oliver_W]

Lol it's pathetic - he's pro-trans and pro-gay, and people think be should be fired for making light of all this alternative genders nonsense?

[Glenn.]

The bloke is an ignorant cesspit of a human. Why he’s been allowed a tv presence is beyond me.

[Niamh.]

What is it over, is it him challenging the 100 or so genders thing? Even the guy on there speaking for them didn't know what most of them were

[arista]

Good debate AM
on GMBHD itv.

Its a Promo for Piers

[arista]

What is it over, is it him challenging the 100 or so genders thing? Even the guy on there speaking for them didn't know what most of them were


Yes so he should
100 genders is a piss take

[Oliver_W]

The bloke is an ignorant cesspit of a human. Why he’s been allowed a tv presence is beyond me.

Oh what's he said?

[Glenn.]

Oh what's he said?

Do you live under a rock or are you just being deliberately pedantic?

Can you name something you think be should be fired for?

[Elliot]

He tries so hard to be controversial and I think GMB know that which is why they keep him on as he’s seen as ‘entertaining’... honestly wouldn’t complain if I never saw him on a tv screen again

Do you defend racism by saying "Lol - it's pathetic - they're pro-women".

[arista]

Benjamin Butterworth
is a fool

[Glenn.]

Can you name something you think be should be fired for?

His disgusting and completely dismissive views on mental health. Telling men who are struggling with such issues to ‘man up’

[Marsh.]

The phone hacking scandal should've seen to it that he didn't work in the industry again. Scum.

[Liam-]

He’s purposely controversial to garner a reaction and push the ratings up, he’ll never be fired, he wouldn’t still have a career if he didn’t play that part, I don’t think he’s a bigot, he does stand up for gay rights and trans rights, he just tends to draw the line at the ridiculous like most people do, he’s still a pompous, arrogant bully, but a bigot? I don’t think so.

Should he be fired and blacklisted from tv I wouldn’t miss him in the slightest, but it should be based on his complete ignorance on basic things like mental health and sexual harassment, a company like ITv which has now launched this new mental health campaign (which is complete damage control mission itself) shouldn’t give a platform to man who regularly belittles and simplifies male mental health issues, his attitude of ‘you can’t even talk to women anymore without them complaining!!’ Should also not be given a platform, he’s an obnoxious pig that should have been binned and thrown out with the News of the World

[Scarlett.]

Yeah, his common sense approach to life, like when he hacked a dead girls phone for a news story, or how he, as the editor of The Mirror was partly responsible for the media frenzy that eventually lead Princess Diana's death (by his own admission, no less). What a paragon of common sense he is.

[arista]

"he’ll never be fired"

Yeah can't argue with any of that tbf Liam.

[Oliver_W]

Do you defend racism by saying "Lol - it's pathetic - they're pro-women".

But he's not been racist, nor has he been homophobic or transphobic.

[Marsh.]

But he's not been racist, nor has he been homophobic or transphobic.

I never said he had.

I was pointing out that pointing out something positive about someone doesn't suddenly mean the negative doesn't exist. Especially when the two things aren't linked.

[LukeB]

What is it over, is it him challenging the 100 or so genders thing? Even the guy on there speaking for them didn't know what most of them were

I think it started when itv did that mental health advert about talking to each other and piers morgan telling a man who is struggling with mental health to man up before and still working for itv. (And other stuff)

[Nicky91]

But he's not been racist, nor has he been homophobic or transphobic.

only thing Piers is and Always has been, is being a attention seeking annoying prick

best thing is everyone just doesn't give attention anymore, and he'll fade away into nothingness soon enough

[Kazanne]

It's ridiculous,i saw that debate this morning ,obviously those that already don't like Piers Morgan with agree with the idiot who was on,who said there is a 100 genders but was furious that Piers said he now identifies as a penguin, that other guy hadn't got a clue,even India said he was wrong and explained why,some people just want their 15 mins of fame and as Piers rightly said just because he disagrees with some people it doesn't mean he wants everyone who doesn't agree with him fired, that is ridiculous, he wont be sacked as hes done nothing wrong,just people wh don't like him have seized on something,tbh,he's the only reason I watch GMB.

I pretty sure people dislike him for a number of other reasons than him identifying as a penguin...

You're literally calling people who don't think the same as Piers "idiots" yet calling for him to be respected for his opinions? :joker:

Personally, I can't like anyone who hacked into the phone of a dead child and caused their parents even more anguish, but there we are.

[Liam-]

Because India ‘death to drag queens’ Willoughby is the greatest measure of what’s right or not

[Liam-]

While we’re on it, I happen to agree with him, I don’t agree that there are 100 genders, but the way he goes about it is disgusting and he should be reprimanded, it’s not about being ‘pc’ it’s about being decent, civil human beings and he fails at that miserably

I'm not commenting on the issue the call is for him to be fired for.

It's just a total mystery to me why and how he gets on any channel.
I can't stand the man.

The second I see him on early morning TV or anywhere, the channel is instantly changed.
I wouldn't give him a second of my time.

[bots]

it's far simpler to just not watch him

[Withano]

When the snowflakes get it right :clap1:

[Toy Soldier]

If the poll says go he MUST go, there's no debate to be had, the people will have spoken and it will be a slap in the face to democracy if he doesn't leave.

#PexitMeansPexit
#GetPexitDone

[smudgie]

Never watch him as I am not fussed on him.
But I am even less fussed on all these keyboard critics that demand a sacking if they don’t agree with the same point of view.

[Strictly Jake]

I'm still against this whole 100 genders thing

A baby in a womb is either male or female

On a scan you can learn if your having a boy or a girl

As that baby grows into a mature think for itself person then it can decide what it wants to be identified as and each to their own

But a baby is either a boy or a girl sometimes it can be both or sometimes neither but that's rare

Only with people now being open minded an wanting freedom are people bringing these rules into place as if they are fact

[Tom4784]

Anything that gets Piers Morgan off the TV is good with me.

[Cherie]

it's far simpler to just not watch him

Whatttttt, they couldn’t moan about him then :laugh:

I don’t care either way as I don’t watch Breakfast TV on any channel

[Cherie]

...hopefully he’ll man up and get through this time ...

[arista]

Tomorrow he fly's to his LA home
so he will be off air
for some weeks

Very sad news

[Oliver_W]

The "man up" thing was a bit dodgy, but it's the worst thing he's said and it's not enough to mean he should be fired.

It's weird how making fun of genderspecials garnered a bigger response than something he said which actually undermines people with real problems.

Completely agree. The phone hacking scandal was horrific....lives were seriously and detrimentally affected.

[MTVN]

The phone hacking of Milly Dowler was the News of the World though, nothing to do with Piers

[arista]

Very sad news



He does the LA break every year,
then Piers return

[Kizzy]

How he ever got that job after the phonew hacking and the daily mirror was it/ wasn't it mocked torture front page I don't know...

...I think though that ‘the worst he has said’ is obviously going to differ from person to person...(..of his critics..)...his whole style and image is of being judgemental and ranting from what I’ve seen..although I have to say, I rarely watch or listen to anything he says, just because I don’t like that style and I think so much information is lost in the design and ‘entertainment value’ of it..let’s get people riled up, rather than inform them..but the calls for him to be fired...?...well, surely that’s people judging him the way he is prone to judge others, so a bit karma-like...he lives by the sword etc...

For someone who wants people to respect his opinions, he’s really offended by everyone else’s, some would say, quite snowflakey?

Just a typical Right Winger really, tells people that they want to hear, acts like the world's full of snowflakes because people can't be as freely bigoted anymore without consequence while acting incredibly snowflake-y himself.

[Elliot]

I mean yeah I do this anyway, but it’d still be nice if he was off air for good tbh, even for Susanna’s sake :bawling:

[Elliot]

I’ve always found his man up comments to be pretty horrific specifically

Man Up

I do love that the mere mention of Greta has the gammon up in arms. There's nothing that screams 'I have a micropenis!' louder than a middle aged man mocking a teenage girl for trying to save the planet.

[Samm]

ITV milking off everything they can for this for good ratings is sick, in regards to their mental health campaign as well

[arista]

Educate yourself, Arista.



I would Slam you in the Army

[GiRTh]

He's just a tw@t. He's adds controversy to the show and he has friends so wont be sacked, but he adds little to the show that others couldnt do with more reason and compassion.

Susanna and Charlotte are really disappointing for not checking him more often
