Here for it

Oliver_W 15-10-2019 02:24 PM

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. 15-10-2019 02:25 PM

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

Niamh. 15-10-2019 02:30 PM

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 15-10-2019 02:30 PM

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

Elliot 15-10-2019 02:54 PM

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".

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

Marsh. 15-10-2019 03:09 PM

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

Liam- 15-10-2019 03:13 PM

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

arista 15-10-2019 03:22 PM

"he’ll never be fired"

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.

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)

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 15-10-2019 03:54 PM

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- 15-10-2019 03:59 PM

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

Liam- 15-10-2019 04:01 PM

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 15-10-2019 07:13 PM

it's far simpler to just not watch him

Withano 15-10-2019 07:36 PM

When the snowflakes get it right :clap1:

user104658 15-10-2019 08:38 PM

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.

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 15-10-2019 10:13 PM

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 16-10-2019 02:29 AM

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