Susanna Reid slams critics telling her to quit Good Morning Britain in Twitter rant: ‘I’m staying right where I am’
Susanna Reid has slammed critics telling her to quit her job on Good Morning Britain, declaring that she is “staying right where I am”.
The Good Morning Britain presenter told how her skin “just gets thicker by the second” as she responded to critics in a Twitter rant following co-host Piers Morgan’s interview with Donald Trump.
The 47-year-old hit out at trolls urging her to leaving her job hosting the breakfast show declaring that she had no intention of doing so.
She wrote on Twitter: "Getting hit from left and right. Criticised for being too opinionated ... and too quiet.
Getting hit from left and right. Criticised for being too opinionated...and too quiet. Accused of being a snowflake and a c---. Too liberal ... too enabling, 'good-looking, but...' My skin just gets thicker by the second.
And we do it all again tomorrow @gmb 6am.— Susanna Reid (@susannareid100) July 16, 2018
Half my critics think I should leave MY paid employment because THEY take issue with the person sitting next to me. The other half think I should leave, BECAUSE I take issue with the person sitting next to me.

The rant comes after Morgan interviewed Trump on topical issues including the “very complex problem” of Brexit.
On Monday morning’s show the 53-year-old declared intention to donate a box of Trump’s sweets to a child living with terminal cancer.
After he interviewed the president onboard his world famous plane Air Force One for Good Morning Britain, the presenter picked up a personalised packet of M&Ms.

Morgan gave up the keepsake to 10-year-old Jess Shepherd who is “collecting memories” after being diagnosed with terminal Neuroblastoma.
Speaking on Monday morning’s show he said: “Just had a tweet here – I’d like to send some of those M&Ms to a girl called Jess.
“She’s had cancer, she’s ten years old and there’s no further treatment available for her. So making memories now is all we have left.”
