He (quite rightly IMO) criticises people attacking a fine soldier - but coming from a guy who published front page faked pictures attacking British Troops in the Middle East is the height of hypocrisy.

Why do ITV continue to give a soapbox to this despicable character.

[dannyk13]

Because he brings in the viewers.

I have mixed feelings about him, sometimes I agree with him and sometimes I can't stand him!!

[david small]

He would be the perfect bride for Tony Blair.

He criticised soldiers that he believed had committed atrocities. He didn’t know they were fake at the time. He lost his job over it. Why does that make him a hypocrit?

He would be the perfect interviewer for Boris Johnson. Bring it on Piers.

evidence needs to be cogent the more serious the allegation

( you cant say that the Queen has robbed a bank wivva machine gun on the strength that Mrs Foo darn the road said she thought she had. Even tho Mrs Foo had always told the troof before, is an upright geezer and it was her damn fool son)

I can't make up my mind about him - he's a self righteous *** sometimes but...he does speak his mind...I like that

[tiggerblue10]

He is one of few people I really dislike. I don't like his constant hounding of certain guests and I wouldn't be surprised if they just cut off mid rant.

[meglet]

Actually, my mistake, he still maintains to this day that the photos were real and simply denied but the regiment and government of the day. Soldiers commit war crimes, that should not be news to anyone.

[eve1974]

yup and governments and high up generals deny those crimes. any war has the same.

"He would be the perfect interviewer for Boris Johnson. Bring it on Piers."

Why?

Other than to sate your perverse and unhealthy obsession with Boris Johnson, what would be the point of him appearing on the morning Piers Morgan Show?

Boris Johnson is correct not to appear for the simple reason that Piers Morgan doesn't know how to conduct an interview; all PM does is ask a question and then supply what the answer should be before the interviewee has a chance to answer, but if by chance the interviewee does by some miracle manage to cram in an answer between Morgan's monologues, he will simply get louder and louder, will talk over the interviewee, and just for good measure will lob in a couple of "when did you stop beating your wife" questions.

If Piers ever gets the chance to interview Boris , it would probably attract more viewers than a world football cup final , but it will never happen . because the Cons dare not risk it . Boris can make a fool of himself on normal tv or at any PMQs. and the Cons know it.
