Teachers have said the cost of living and workloads are pushing them out of the job they love, and has lead them to strike.

It was one the first of seven scheduled days of industrial action organised by the National Education Union (NEU) following a vote by members.

Good Morning Britain

Over on Good Morning Britain presenter Richard Madeley wanted to know why parents couldn’t have more advance notice of the strike action.

Fair enough question but he asked NEU joint general secretary Kevin Courtney in the most patronising, way possible and it backfired making him look quite foolish.

His report would read: must try harder.

Richard Madeley might not like the fact that individual workers don't have to tell their employers if they'll be taking strike action, but they don't have to. Solidarity with all teachers on strike today@cyclingkev on #GMB this morning. pic.twitter.com/OysK80lqj5

Pompous, patronising Madeley. As usual, he came out the worse for his appalling behaviour.

Why is he asking the question as though he’s speaking to a child?

Richard Madeley is an absolute disgrace.
The way he spoke to the teachers union rep was patronising childish and showed total disrespect.
Put him into isolation to learn some manners!#SupportTheStrikes
