Good Morning Britain's Adil Ray makes savage swipe at Michael Gove in heated exchange
Adil Ray slammed Michael Gove in a savage takedown of the former Tory MP.
Mr Gove appeared on Good Morning Britain today to speak to Susanna Reid and Adil Ray about the Conservative election campaign this morning, despite not standing as an MP this time around. However, it wasn't long until Susanna and Adil clashed with Mr Gove when he urged them to share the positive Tory record from the last few years - despite this not being the case.
After a few tense exchanges, Mr Gove spoke solely to Susanna and kept referencing her "colleague" after the pair clashed multiple times. As the interview came to the end, Adil fumed at Mr Gove, telling him "my name is Adil by the way".
Adil and Mr Gove clashed over various things, particularly the Tory's record when it came to education and schools. In a previous interview this morning, he referenced the polls which say the Tories could lose many seats in the upcoming election.

Speaking on Sky News earlier today and linking the election and the Euros, he said: "There are opinion polls, as I've acknowledged and as we both know, that are not great, but it's not the 90th minute, we're not in 'Fergie time' yet. There is still an opportunity for us to make these arguments and as we make these arguments, my experience is that when you do talk to voters, outline some of the tax dangers, outline some of Labour's plans for the future, then people do think twice."
He later added in the same interview: "People do recognise that by voting Conservatives you are both ensuring that there is a strong Conservative voice in Parliament, but also you are doing everything you can to prevent a series of tax increases that won't just hit pensioners and first-time buyers, but also will hit the economy in the guts. I'm a Scotland fan, so you wait until the final whistle. Sometimes it looks as though the odds are against you, but you keep on fighting."
Adil hasn't been on the show much recently, but earlier this year, he confirmed he would be back on the show. He wrote at the time: "From Friday, I'll be back @gmb for most Fridays until the end of May. First run is the next three Fridays until the Easter break. Hope you'll join me. In the current climate it feels like a huge privilege to be on morning telly. Would love it if you joined us from 6am."
