Former shadow chancellor Ed Balls and Reform UK MP Richard Tice clashed on Good Morning Britain on Wednesday (30 April), after the latter failed repeatedly to give a cost estimate for nationalising British Steel.
Mr Tice said it was "cheaper" and a "lot more cost-effective", that he had an "expert" advising him, and that he has a "good idea" of the sum - but he did not provide an exact figure despite being asked several times.
At one point, after Mr Tice addressed his interviewer as "my dear Ed", Mr Balls replied: "Don't patronise me, answer the question."
