They should be grilled but the problem with Morgan is that he doesn't leave room for an answer - even one to be scrutinised. He isn't looking for answers, he's looking to blast his opinion louder than the other person in the room and it's boring. A skilled interviewer is there to let the other person talk and then quickly and succinctly point out the holes in their answer - they're not there to talk, and Morgan only wants to hear his own voice.

This was true when he was pro-tory, pro-brexit, etc. and it doesn't stop being true just because he's flipped on the government.

I'd LOVE to see these politicians under the scrutiny of a genuinely skilled, knowledgeable interviewer. I don't want to see Piers hooting at them for 10 minutes.
