Her interview that followed however, focused mainly on her political views and campaign to encourage tactical voting at the next General Election.

Carol told viewers she trained as a journalist and after looking into alleged "corruption" in government, she has been on a crusade to get the Conservative Party out of power.

Charlotte asked: "Are you going to be as equally critical and cast your eye over everything that's going on when Labour is in government?

"Governments need to have a balancing act, of making everything work, balancing the budgets..."

Carol cut in after saying: "I think you're being very generous, Charlotte, to this government."

She added: "That's what they'll tell you."

Charlotte attempted to argue back, saying: "There's always been certain amounts of allegations of corruption..."

Carol spoke over Charlotte again, blasting: "No there hasn't though, not in the same way. That's the whole thing."

Watching at home one viewer joked online: "That was a Partly Political Broadcast on behalf of Carol Vorderman’s TV career."

Someone else said: "Don’t get me wrong, I’m far from being a fan of the filthy Tories, but Carol Vorderman is just a Labour supporter. A true journalist would share ALL corruption, not one sided. She’s self righteous and self absorbed."

Another added: "Carol Vorderman? I wanna switch off, but I’m gonna stick it out to see if she can keep her political bias in check."

Meanwhile others were impressed by the presenter, saying: "I bloody love Carol Vorderman. Keep up the fight Carol."

Another added: "Carol Vorderman absolutely smashing it on #GMB Forget the tribalism. If you don't like what she's got to say, question her facts. Come back at her with your own. Otherwise, you're just shouting at the moon."

Someone else said: "Carol Vorderman is the woman Britain needs right now. Everything she says is so bang on!"
