In October 2011, Holmes provoked criticism by suggesting that a rape victim should take taxis in future, leading to accusations of victim blaming.[39]

On 12 May 2016, Eamonn Holmes provoked criticism by comparing an attack by West Ham fans to the Hillsborough disaster.



There are an endless array of controversies surrounding him ..

How fast did the act on Jeremy Kyle, off air straight off...if they wanted him gone he would be

Still being drunk when coming into work is in no way comparable to being an obnoxious bigot

take over from Holly and Phil during their
six-week summer break
Broadcasters Ruth and Eamonn, both 60, will now be
replaced by the show's first black host,
Alison Hammond, and X Factor's Dermot O'Leary
Alison and Dermot are said to have 'real warmth'
and as such are seen as perfect
replacements for Ruth and Eamonn
on the coveted Friday slot
A source claimed: 'Eamonn is pretty furious
and everyone feels for him and Ruth,
they are well liked on the team,
but sometimes tough decisions
have to be made'
Eamonn and Ruth have presented
every Friday on the show since 2006]



So they are back next Summer Holiday.

The show already has two gay presenters in Rylan and Phil so this is a bit puzzling? You must mean getting rid of older people to bring in younger people right? Or would you care to explain what you mean by this and the 'woke' comment earlier.? :thumbs:

Rylan hasn’t been a this morning regular for years now, I think he only does the very occasional holiday shift

Sack someone for ruining a woman's life and basically committing fraud and likely putting her health at risk. Seems reasonable my love!
