BBC Breakfast presenter Naga Munchetty sparked fury as she and Charlie Stayt interviewed Home Secretary Yvette Cooper on the morning news programme. Naga pressed Cooper on a number of topics, including her plans for addressing the issue of foreign workers who are working illegally in the UK. Cooper admitted she ahreed with new committee findings that the Home Office does not know whether foreign workers are staying to work illegally after their visas expire or leaving the UK.

But some viewers were left furious as Naga failed to push Cooper the small boats crisis, which has seen a record number of migrants arriving in Dover from Calais. Over 20,000 migrants have entered the country this year alone.

One viewer raged: "Naga should have pushed the Home Secretary more on the boats crisis," as another agreed: "Naga has just interviewed the Home Secretary without even referring to *small boat* illegal immigration or her pledge to "smash the gangs".

A third fumed: "Again BBC you allow this inept woman on the BBC, and again you let her off!!! Get her on TALK they will sort this government...your station is as inept as Cooper is...if I was Home Secretary things would change overnight!!!" as a fourth said: "Complete absence of critical questioning. Basically a party political broadcast masquerading as interview. Are presenters too dim to ask difficult questions? Or too Lefty themselves?"

A fifth switched off the programme as they said: "Turned on @BBCBreakfast this morning, what a pair of miseries. Perfect kick up the bum to get up on a day off!"
