He has received criticism online for a picture that emerged of him posing for a selfie with Boris Johnson after an interview today.
Phillip Schofield has responded to those criticising him online for posing for a selfie with Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Thursday morning (5 December).
A photo emerged of Johnson taking a photo with Schofield and Holly Willoughby, which many reacted strongly to online.
It came hours after a clip emerged of Schofield demanding an apology from Jeremy Corbyn for allegedly anti-semitic comments he made in the past.
Schofield has been responding to questions on his Twitter, and has since made a brief statement on the subject of the selfie.
He said: “Can I point out that if Mr Corbyn had asked for a selfie, we would have happily obliged.”
Can I point out that if Mr Corbyn had asked for a selfie, we would have happily obliged.
