ITV Good Morning Britain presenter Susanna Reid received praise by viewers on Tuesday morning after she continued to push questions to a Conservative MP about the sacking of P&O workers.
MP for Sutton and Chean, Paul Scully, appeared on the ITV morning programme on Tuesday to discuss the latest developments when it came to the sacking of 800 P&O Ferries workers over a video call, after the company hired agency workers to replace staff.
Susanna brought up Paul's past political decisions that could've led to the 'Fire & Rehire' method that P&O have used, much to viewers delight.

When Susanna posed the question to Mr Scully on whether he voted against the fire and rehire bill, he told her and Martin Lewis the vote had never happened, so he had not voted against the bill.
But Susanna came with evidence, as she read aloud a Guardian article that stated: "The junior business minister, Paul Scully, spoke for more than 40 minutes in the chamber, ensuring that the private member’s bill ran out of time and would not progress beyond its second reading."
As the two presenters pushed Mr Scully to discuss the bill further, they found out that the bill only did not happen as he ended up talking it out.
Fans flocked to Twitter to praise Susanna for her research methods and grilling of the MP, with one Twitter user saying: "Well done @susannareid100 for calling out @scullyp on filibustering a private members bill on Fire and Rehire! @GMB #GMB."
Another wrote: "Susanna absolutely skewering @paulscullymp here. Superb! #GMB."
Further tweets read: "CALL THE POLICE. @susannareid100 HAS JUST MURDERED @scullyp ON LIVE TV #GMB", and "Best takedown on breakfast TV ever @scullyp thought he got away with his lie. @susannareid100 showed him up and exposed his lie. Tried to walk it back and say nothing would have changed #GMB."
Originally, Paul Scully argued that Susanna was reading from a Trade Union Congress (TUC) article, so he could state it was a 'skewed' angle, until Susanna told him it was actually written by the Guardian.
ITV's Good Morning Britain resumes on Wednesday, March 23 and each weekday from 6am onwards.
