Richard Madeley clashes with Mick Lynch over rail strikes

There was a tetchy exchange between Richard Madeley and RMT general secretary Mick Lynch on Good Morning Britian as the union leader accused Madeley of “ranting” and suggested the presenter should interview himself.

Mr Madeley put it to Mr Lynch on Good Morning Britain that the rail strikes were targeting people at Christmas and could put hoteliers, restauranteurs and retailers out of business during a normally busy time of year.
