Watch the moment Piers Morgan is called a "c***" live on air during what turned into a somewhat chaotic interview on his TalkTV show, Piers Morgan: Uncensored.
The 57-year-old broadcaster interviewed a transgender rights activist speaking in front of the Emmeline Pankhurst statue in Manchester's St Peter's Square, wrapped in a trans flag when the conversation quickly spiraled out of control.
As you can see in the clip, an individual whose appearance is primarily obscured by large hair, shades, and a black face mask, begins to explain how they believe certain feminist sub-groups are trying to appropriate icons like Pankhurst as part of a "hateful movement against trans people".
Tensions arose between the activists and a select group of feminists during a protest on Monday where a woman ended up in physical interaction with a member of the activist group.
As Morgan tries to interject, the protestor says "stop shouting over me"; he then declares he has always stood for trans rights "for fairness and equality" - to which the interviewee then responds, "f***ing bull****, bro".
Apologizing for the foul language, Morgan then attempts to try and steer the conversation towards the subject of transgender rights in regards to sport, at which point the protestor proceeds to look around as if uninterested before telling him to "shut up, bro - what are all these dog whistles and talking points?"
Morgan once again offers him the chance to explain why he doesn't agree with his position on trans women in sport but the activist simply calls time, saying: "I don't really know I'm gonna leave the interview now - I kind of only came on here because I thought it would be kinda funny, but I wanna say you're a c*** and [inaudible]."
