GMB viewers demand Martin Lewis be made permanent as he takes Boris Johnson to task

The Prime Minister visited a hospital without wearing a mask

ITV viewers have called for Martin Lewis to be made a permanent host after watching him blast Boris Johnson on GMB.

Martin, 49, raged at Deputy Prime Minister, Dominic Raab, over PM Boris not apologising for another Tory ‘sleaze’ scandal.

Martin fumed: “The Prime Minister yesterday, when asked about this three times, refused to say the words ‘apology’, “error’, ‘mistake’ or ‘sorry’. You are the deputy Prime Minister. Are you going to say sorry for what happened?”

Martin also blasted Mr Johnson for not wearing a mask during a hospital visit yesterday, despite nurses and other hospital staff being masked up.

He asked Dominic: “Do you have an idea what the clinical difference between the Prime Minister and everyone else in that setting is?”

GMB fans were loving Martin’s no-nonsense questioning.

“We need more Martin Lewis on GMB and less Richard Madeley,” one viewer wrote on Twitter.

Another agreed tweeting: “Dear #GMB, please pay Martin Lewis whatever he wants to do this programme permanently and ditch the ridiculous plan to hire the equally ridiculous Richard Madeley on a permanent basis.”

A third added: “Martin Lewis [is] excellent on GMB. A savvy bloke who knows his facts and figures, treats Susanna with respect, and cares for the underdog. He puts MP’s on the back foot with aplomb. Should be permanent.”

What is the Tory sleaze row?

And yet another person said: “Well done Martin Lewis for your excellent questioning of the #ToryCorruption #TorySleaze today.”

And one person even called for Martin to head to Downing Street saying: “Can you stay please? Or better even, can you go to #10?”

The Conservative party is under fire after attempts were made to change Parliamentary disciplinary measures following MP Owen Paterson breaching lobbying rules.

Elsewhere on GMB, Susanna Reid was forced to quickly apologise after making an insensitive comment to a married lesbian couple.

While talking to influencers Megan and Whitney about NHS fertility treatment, she asked: “Who wants to be mum?”

The couple looked shocked for a moment before Megan replied: “Well we both want to be mum.”

Susanna quickly raised her hands and offered the wives an apology for her comment.

She said: “Sorry, of course you both want to be mum as in, of course you’ll both be mum..

“I apologise for that insensitivity…”

She then continued with the more appropriately phrased: “Who wants to carry the baby?”
