GMB News host demands apology from Gary Lineker after social media 'abuse'

Match of the Day presenter Gary Lineker has incurred the wrath of GB News host Nana Akua who reminded viewers of when she claims he "had a go at" her on Twitter and says "I demand an apology".

Gary has recently been found in breach of his BBC contract after he made comments about the Conservative party taking money from Russian donors.

The presenter, who also got into trouble earlier this year on Twitter over a tweet about England's Lionesses, retweeted a post that read: "Foreign Secretary Liz Truss has urged Premier League teams to boycott the Champions League final in Russia if they reach it." But he added his own opinion saying: "And her party will hand back their donations from Russian donors?" which the BBC concluded breached its impartiality guidelines.

And now GB News presenter Nana Akua has seized the opportunity to air an old grievance on her show saying: "(Gary) had a go at me on social media a year ago to this day." Nana added: "At last, someone has caught up with our dear friend Gary Lineker, auntie, aka the BBC, have finally found some balls to admit that he has overstepped the mark." She added: "How about when he had a go at me on social media a year ago to this day?
