complete gastronomic appropriation before we begin we publish new content every day so be sure to subscribe to our channel and ring the bell to get notified about our latest videos for this list we'll be looking at controversial moments throughout piers morgan's career both on and off screen that really annoyed the general british public is there a british celeb that angers as many people as morgan does if so let us know who in the comments number 10 trump love to put it as nicely as possible donald trump is a bit of a polarizing figure back in 2008 piers morgan met trump when he took part in and won the celebrity apprentice from there the two formed a friendship i can be so politically correct like you've never seen after trump became president and decided to divide the us morgan stuck by his chum even regularly defending his bizarre policies on occasion it wouldn't be until the infamous capital riot in 2021 when morgan finally announced he broke up his friendship with the former president i think he just lost his mind morgan used such terms as deranged and dangerous to describe trump this was a 20-minute interview listen this was a 20-minute interview number nine slandering a women's march it's incredibly frustrating that even today women's marches are still desperately required instead of being a decent human being morgan decided that insulting those in the protest was more appropriate in 2017. on twitter he called the women a group of rabid feminists yikes this of course drew the ire of many i would take this conversation a lot more seriously from you pierce if you hadn't spent the previous week denigrating the march and talking about rabid feminists one of which was actor ewan mcgregor the obi-wan performer was set to appear on good morning britain to talk about trainspotting too however when he arrived at the studio mcgregor heard morgan would be interviewing him so he left straight away as mcgregor is a supporter of the women's march euro mcgregor is an actor he was here to talk about a movie has decided he can't come and talk about his movie morgan ever the grown-up slandered the actor on the show and in his column for mail online number eight phone hacking comments the thornhacking scandal was one of the biggest stories in recent years it involved journalists believing that they are allowed to illegally hack into thorns to grab gossip one person accused of the practice was piers morgan when he was editor of the daily mirror yeah you can access their voices you can access their voicemail just by tapping a number now you really telling me that journalists aren't going to do that the problem became so big that the leveson inquiry was formed to examine the ethics of journalists in 2012 morgan was interviewed about his involvement which he denied were you aware of the payment at the time no however several people have claimed otherwise one was lord justice leveson when asked about morgan's denial of being involved leveson stated his account was utterly unpersuasive he further added that he believes morgan didn't authorize the hacking but knew about it and let it continue um is that you listen to a tape of a voicemail message is that correct i listen to a tape of a message yes number seven offensive imitation in 2020 peter phillips the son of princess anne of the british royal family decided to take part in an advert to sell milk in china because it's piers morgan he started by looking for a way to make it about meghan markle and harry feeling worked up morgan thought it was appropriate for an offensive impression live on good morning britain while susanna reid fired back the audience was already angry so much so that 1095 complaints were filed to ofcom and social media was filled with people furious by morgan's grim impression morgan defended himself by claiming he was just mocking phillips not chinese people milk right the chinese state you can't that's what they just said at the end number six transgender comments a couple of times in 2019 morgan decided to use the same gross joke when debating trans rights on good morning britain he decided to mockingly identify as a penguin in reference to one of them being raised as gender neutral in the london aquarium he told the audience he was now a two-spirit gender-neutral pan-neutral gender-fluid fem penguin ken as i did earlier now identify as a two-spirit neutroy's penguin well you're not a penguin because she's a bit white this was done to mock people that don't fit in just the male or female categories of gender the second time during a debate on gender identity he whipped out that uncomfortable comment again then i am entitled to identify as a two-spirit penguin this caused 950 complaints to ofcom who didn't take any further action morgan responded apologetically just kidding he was smug and stated he was empowered by the ofcom result you have as i suspected empowered me number five fake torture pictures in 2004 the uk was in the midst of the controversial iraq war so the daily mirror with morgan as editor placed on their front page shocking images of british soldiers abusing iraqis in custody however a couple of days later it turned out those images were faked and were actually shot in england the mirror then put out an apology for the hawks to their readers morgan was then summoned to a meeting with his boss sly bailey who ran the trinity mirror now known as reach who owns the daily mirror but morgan refused to apologize for printing the doctored images so he was sacked as editor after nine years in the rule piers morgan's exclusive pictures have been exposed as fakes but this morning he was still defiled number four taking on vegans with more and more people becoming vegetarians and vegans many companies are now releasing products which cater to these lifestyles however rather than just let people live their lives morgan decided to attack vegans and the pastry chain greggs who released their vegan sausage roll in 2019 morgan decided to claim on twitter that no one wanted this he followed up by eating one on good morning britain they're delicious actually because they've got the same seasoning oh god he went with dramatic expressions and implied that he was going to be sick a little bit of morgan performance art to get the morning off to a weird start later in 2020 morgan admitted the stunt was done just because he was bored in a democracy i should be allowed to say strongly that i don't like a vegan sausage roll number three belittling mental health mental health issues being spoken about publicly is vital it's always great when a famous face can talk about their struggles it lets people who have similar experiences feel a little less alone but that's not good enough for piers morgan in 2017 he decided to belittle all those that suffer with their mental health well i said you're going to cry i suggested you can man up in the middle of a wimbledon final at the time there were claims that around 34 million people in the uk had issues with their mental health morgan dismissed it and used the tedious term man up on twitter former footballer stan collimore turned up on good morning britain to talk about his experience with depression morgan tried to backtrack briefly but also claimed celebs exaggerate their battles some celebrities i think massively exaggerate their problems there's a kind of badge of uh of celebrity except number two sexist comments in 2020 viewers of good morning britain got to enjoy their coffee with a bit of sexism not the best start to the day laura torbin the resident meteorologist was discussing the weather morgan decided to draw attention to her trousers calling them the most skin-tight leather hot pants these are the most skin tight leather hot pants i've seen in many a year beyond not knowing the difference between trousers and hot pants morgan was slated by his co-hosts and viewers for his misogynistic comments hot pants are short these are long these are trousers it's not the only time he's embarrassed his colleagues on the gmb set in 2021 he took aim at charlotte hawkins who wore a green dress he demanded she get up to show the cameras and announced her attire was the first sign of summer gross i am wearing a dress i only know what you're wearing because as you walk right after i have a dress on number one the meghan markle vendetta since meghan markle ended a drink with morgan to go and meet harry the presenter has carried a jealous grudge for years markle on the other hand has gotten on with her life with every chance morgan gets he jumps on an opportunity to slate the former actor after her interview with oprah winfrey morgan went off on a rant on good morning britain about not believing markle's harrowing story i'm sorry i don't believe a word she says mega mark this caused a massive fifty seven 121 complaints to ofcom the biggest in their history it came to a boiling point when alex beresford argued with morgan about his obsession on air but is there are you worried right yeah right okay but that to me is a big difference this led to morgan's infamous storm off and quitting the morning show but he hasn't changed he continues to mention markle whenever he can before you think this is some kind of joke remember that meghan markle's old friends probably thought the same thing when she told him she's going to hook her clothes into a british prince do you agree with our pigs check out this other recent clip from watch mojo uk and be sure to subscribe and ring the bell to be
