Good Morning Britain viewers accused weather presenter Laura Tobin of being 'tone deaf'
Good Morning Britain viewers accused weather presenter Laura Tobin of being 'tone deaf' after travelling overseas for the launch of a space mission. Laura had been discussing the JUICE mission to Jupiter's moons, as she appeared live from the launch site in Kouru, French Guiana.
Discussing the mission with GMB hosts Richard Madeley and Charlotte Hawkins, she said: "Everything is on track at the moment to go completely well. You need four things to harbour life. You need enough energy, the right elements, water and a stable environment, and they think they have all of those on Ganymede so it is very exciting."
The meteorologist was invited by the European Space Agency. However, the move did not go down well with viewers, given her passion for climate change awareness, The Mirror reports. Fans appeared frustrated over the presenter's visit to South America.One wrote on Twitter: "Climate change Laura on her jollies again #gmb." Another tweeted: "@GMB Greta Tobin reducing her carbon footprint from French Guyana.
"Laura’s jollies are getting totally ridiculous. They are hypercritical given her stance on climate change and not wanted by the vast majority of viewers," a third said. Someone else added: "I hope this weather broad flew economy to offset her carbon footprint #GMB.". The MirrorMirror has contacted GMB for comment.
This isn't the first time Laura's flying habits have sparked an outrage. The presenter, who last year published the book Everyday Ways to Save Our Planet, came under fire last year when the 41-year-old presented the weather from Egypt.
