NAGA Munchetty has been slammed by BBC Breakfast viewers after she “continuously interrupted” Nicola Sturgeon during a heated interview.
The Scottish First Minister appeared on the show and accused the Government of doing “lasting damage” to the economy.
During her interview with Naga, she added that Lizz Truss‘s short tenure in No10 has been “utterly catastrophic”.
It coms after the mini-budget sunk the pound and “brought pension funds to the brink of collapse”.
Naga soon clashed with Sturgeon after asking her how she planned to transition from fossil fuel dependency to renewable energy sources.
But seconds into their discussion, Sturgeon implied that the BBC presenter hadn’t been “listening” to her answers.

Naga asked: “What do you say about their jobs, transitioning, when does that happen to them?”
Scotland’s First Minister replied: “If you’ve been listening to me I was directly addressing those points.
“I pointed out to you the economic impact and the number of jobs that are dependent on oil and gas.”
“You did,” Munchetty hit back, before adding: “And my question was, ‘What happens to those jobs?’”
But before she could respond properly, Naga interjected and probed further – infuriating viewers in the process.
Taking to Twitter, one person penned: “Someone ought to tell Naga Munchetty that there is an art to good interviewing. Continual interruptions is not the way.”
Echoing their comments, someone else said: “In a rare display, Naga is actually being really rude and constantly interrupting – no wonder Nicola Sturgeon is getting frustrated.”
While a third questioned: “Does Naga Munchetty have to make it so obvious that she dislikes Nicola Sturgeon?”
BBC Breakfast airs weekdays from 6am on BBC One.
