With Labour divided more than ever, Reid told the 67-year-old politician that he was “universally unpopular” among his own members.
“You haven’t had a great result in elections and the Tories have a 21 point lead, which is historical, how are you going to turn this around?” she asked.
Jeremy Corbyn fired back: “We’ll put policies into action. More people are starting to understand we don’t have to have these levels of austerity and poverty in Britain.”
Piers Morgan, 52, waded in to compare Corbyn’s unpopularity to that of Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger.

Where have you gone wrong?
“Why don’t you ask me more about Labour policy?” Corbyn sighed, while pointing his finger at the fiery Good Morning Britain host.
“Don’t wag your finger at me,” Morgan teased.
“Because policy doesn’t mean anything,” Susanna Reid chimed in, before Morgan fumed: “Why do you think Trump won in America? Because he was forceful.”

Morgan continued: “Where have you gone wrong? What has been your biggest mistake?”
As Corbyn swerved the question, Morgan hit back: “Why can’t you be honest?”
Viewers were unimpressed with Corbyn’s uncomfortable interview, with one posting: “It says a lot when a politician starts finger wagging. @piersmorganspeaking the truth to Jeremy Corbyn,” while another agreed: “Any decent politician would make mince meat of Piers Morgan. Corbyn has weak policies and can't handle the media.”
Good Morning Britain airs weekdays at 6am on ITV.
