Piers Morgan abruptly ended his interview with a trans activist who called him “C**t” on live TV.

During the latest episode of Piers Morgan Uncensored, available to stream on Flash, the host invited ‘Jame’ - who chose not to reveal her identity - to engage in a “proper debate” about trans rights.

It followed “appalling scenes” from protesters from Manchester Trans Rise Up dressed in balaclavas and black outfits surrounding suffragette leader Emmeline Pankhurst’s statue.

The interview started out civilised then soon got out of hand when Jame swore multiple times at the broadcaster.

“I have always supported trans rights to fairness and equality and I mean that sincerely,” Morgan said.

The protestor interrupted and told the host “That is bull***t, bro.”

The former Good Morning Britain presenter apologised to his viewers for the explicit language.

“This is a chance for you to present yourself and have a proper debate,” Morgan explained.

“If you’ve got no interest in doing that, that’s fine, but I’m just going to say to you I’ve always supported trans rights to fairness and equality.”

While the commentator expressed his views on trans rights, Jame lost her temper and told him to “shut up”.

Morgan said he was trying to give the advocate a chance, but she told the host she was going to leave the interview.

“I kind of only came on here because I thought it would be kind of funny,” Jame said.

“But I want to say I think you’re a “c**t”,” she added before she was abruptly pulled off air for the bad language.

The broadcaster issued another apology to viewers.

“Unfortunately, [she was] a complete idiot which is what we saw from the video,” he said.

“We hoped we could have a reasonable conversation, that’s unfortunately what we saw in the video - a very unpleasant piece of work.

“They think it’s fine to come on a show like this and pretend to debate and then engage in just abusive language, that’s fine.”

Later in the show, Morgan further apologised to viewers and issued a ban on Jame ever appearing on the program again.

“It’s a shame. I wanted to have a rational, sensible debate. They didn’t, so that’s it,” he explained.

“They won’t be back and we move on.”
