Good Morning Britain viewers said they were 'heartbroken' as Susanna Reid told the Prime Minister of a pensioner who uses her free bus pass to sit on buses all day in order to keep warm amid the cost of living crisis.

The presenter sat down with Boris Johnson for his first interview on the ITV news programme in nearly five years on Tuesday (May 3).

She headed to Downing Street to have the chat live from No.10 but viewers were initially left confused when the PM was late.

During the conversation, which covered the UK's support of Ukraine and the cost of living, Susanna revealed she had an email from 77-year-old Elsie who can only afford to eat one meal and day and spends her morning riding on buses for free to avoid using energy at home.
