Nick Robinson tells Boris Johnson to ‘stop talking’ on Radio 4's Today programme

BBC's Nick Robinson told Boris Johnson to "stop talking" as the pair clashed live on air this morning.

The Radio 4 presenter seemed to lose his cool with the Prime Minister rambling answers on the HGV shortage during BBC Today Programme host.

During a grilling over the Governments handling of the truck driver shortages and the current supply chain crisis, Mr Johnson said: "There is no supply of young people in this country who frankly at the moment are thinking of becoming truck drivers."

They begin talking over one another before Robinson snaps: "Prime Minister you are going to pause.

"Prime Minister stop talking."
