A heated exchange erupted on Piers Morgan's show when journalist and filmmaker Myriam François refused to answer whether Hamas should retain control of Gaza after the recent ceasefire agreement. The discussion, part of a panel on the Israel-Hamas hostage deal, quickly devolved into chaos as François repeatedly deflected Morgan's questions.

Morgan challenged François, a known critic of Israel, on her stance regarding Hamas's future governance in Gaza. Instead of a direct response, François retorted with a comment about a perceived "White man mantra." This sparked a sharp rebuke from Morgan, who objected to what he perceived as a racially charged remark and questioned François's own racial identity. The situation escalated as François accused Morgan of playing the victim and continued her critique of Israel.

When pressed again about Hamas's role, François claimed she couldn't answer because she wasn't Palestinian. Morgan expressed frustration at her inability to address a fundamental question about the conflict, given her strong opinions on the subject. The conversation took a further turn when François condescendingly referred to Morgan as "sweetheart" and, earlier in the program, as "daddy." Morgan condemned her language, leading to a defiant response from François.

As Morgan persisted in his questioning, François continued to evade and talk over him, ultimately pushing Morgan to his breaking point. He declared she would no longer be welcome on his show and abruptly cut off her microphone, ending the contentious interview.
