Fiona Bruce's infuriating BBC Question Time habit leaves fans making same demand

QT: Ian Murray and Fiona Bruce clash over freebies scandal

BBC Question Time fans called for presenter Fiona Bruce to be "sacked" by the broadcasters as a habit of hers infuriated them. The 60-year-old newsreader was bashed by viewers as she kept interrupting guest's answers.

Tory MP Andrew Bowie was on the BBC show as he gave his thoughts on current Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, and the controversial freebies row. Sir Starmer has been under fire for accepting more than £107,000 worth of gifts and hospitality from party donors since 2019 - including free tickets to a Taylor Swift concert.

Earlier this week, it was announced that he would be paying back a measly £6,000 of those freebies, while drawing up new guidlines for politicians accepting gifts. However, the Conservatives have accused the PM of being transparent only when “his back’s against the wall”.

Mr Bowie was no exception as he laid into the Prime Minister. He claimed that Starmer had accepted a “staggering amount” of donations, when Fiona interrupted him while bashing former PM Boris Johnson.

She pointed out that Starmer has “not [accepted] as much as Boris Johnson”. Bowie replied: “Well no, Boris Johnson is no longer an MP." He deflected, adding: "Keir Starmer accepted over £107,000.”

Fans online were less than impressed with Fiona not letting the guest speak without interruption.

Posting to X/Twitter, one wrote: "So BBC Question Time is now going to be renamed the Fiona Bruce show, and with Ian Murray as her foil, appalling absolutely f***ing appalling. Sack her BBC."

Another added: "Fiona Bruce: We haven’t got much time left… We’ve only got 6 minutes to answer the question… Mainly because I keep interrupting and speaking over everyone on the panel for the very simple reason that I’m no good at chairing a mothers meeting never mind question time… #bbcqt."

"Fiona Bruce isnt getting any better on this show #bbcqt," a third said, while someone else echoed: "Fiona Bruce is awful on question time. Doesn’t let anybody finish their points! Shut up!!!!!! #bbcqt."

Speaking about the freebies scandal, a Downing Street spokesperson said: "The prime minister has commissioned a new set of principles on gifts and hospitality to be published as part of the updated ministerial code.

"Ahead of the publication of the new code, the prime minister has paid for several entries on his own register. This will appear in the next register of members’ interests."
