Both presenters brought viewers the latest news and reaction from yesterday's budget news.

And during the show Beeb bosses invited the Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves onto the programme.

Naga asked the MP what she would have done differently if she was in charge of the budget before the interview took a turn.

The straight-talking presenter called Rachel out for 'not answering' her direct question.

Looking down the line, Naga told her: "I haven't heard what you would have done differently."

As the interview progressed Munchetty interrupted Reeves on a number of occasions which left BBC Breakfast viewers frustrated.

Raging on social media, fans branded it a 'weak interview' from Naga - with one going as far as to say it was the "worst interview the BBC has done".

One posted: "Ffs Naga, stop interrupting and badgering Rachel Reeves, some of us would like to hear her point of view on the budget. I bet you don’t do it to Hunt later!!"
