The row over Matt Hancock's no show on ITV yesterday morning is still running.
Daybreak presenter Matt Barbet seems to have taken being stood up rather personally, and certainly didn't like Hancock's original response.
I got 2 tv studio at 6:41 this am so missed 6:40 slot. You've got to be on time for work or there r consequences. I'll learn from my example

.@matthancockmp Appreciate admission about missing us on @daybreak Everyone oversleeps - but you know you were much more than a minute late.

@chrisshipitv A minute after the interview starts is around 20-30 minutes later than when he should've been in the building preparing.

@chrisshipitv Spinning it as if he was stopped from going on-air having just missed the time slot is nonsense.
