Synopsis

Viewers of Question Time are outraged by Fiona Bruce's skewed reporting, and many are clamouring for the BBC host to be fired.

Agencies
Fiona Bruce hosted the discussion from Horsham in West Sussex on the most recent episode of Question Time. On the panel, the BBC host spoke with the MP for the police, Chris Philp, the MP for Labour's shadow secretary of state for Northern Ireland, Peter Kyle, the MP for spoken-word artist George the Poet, the MP for Zanny Minton Beddoes, editor of the Economist, and the MP for Conservative peer and chairman, Asda Lord Stuart.

However, many spectators commented on the presentation on social media after the program. Many irate viewers demanded that Fiona be removed as the host. Others continued by saying they would rather not watch Question Time due to the unbiased reporting. The backlash appeared to be about a discussion between Lord Stuart and the presenter.

A video of the argument was posted by a viewer named Brendan May, and it quickly became popular on social media. Lord Stuart offered his opinions on the state of the asylum system. He stated that since his mother was an immigrant and he most likely wouldn't have entered this nation today, we should stop having this playground conversation. Numerous admirers argued that Fiona didn't appear amused by Lord Stuart's argument.
