Nadine Dorries says ITV’s ‘toxic’ This Morning should be axed

The Independent says Senior Tory Nadine Dorries has said that the “toxic” and “stale” ITV programme This Morning should be axed following the Phillip Schofield scandal.

The former culture secretary waded in on the furore surrounding former host who quit the show after admitting to an “unwise but not illegal” affair with a younger male colleague.

Ms Dorries questioned the “entire culture” at This Morning and said ITV viewers had been “lied to” over the affair, adding: “I don’t think it should survive.”

She told Talk TV: “I think [the story] is not going away, and I just don’t think it can survive in its present format. I think it was … the original editor of the show who said it really just needs to go now.”
