Two BBC presenters have been fired for making a joke about the size of the Union Flag and the Queen's picture being used as a backdrop in a government interview. The next morning, the co-hosts were replaced, but who were they?
00:00:00.000The next morning the co-hosts were replaced. Damn! Who were these two? John K and Rachel Burden hosted the show. They got fired.
00:00:08.000All came together and like, you know, the Islamists are trying to stop our freedom and this is what we stand for.
00:00:14.000B.S. You guys are double-standed, hypocritical, slob of the gullion, pussed animus, pigeon-hearted, weasels.
00:00:21.000Yes, you heard that. Yes, with some take with Mohammed Hijab, I constructed that together and I believe it's well-deserved.

00:00:42.000Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh, brothers and sisters and dear friends. I hope you guys are well inshaAllah.
00:00:47.000I came across this video and I was like, wow, like you've reached, you've literally reached the pinnacle of hypocrisy and double standards.
00:00:57.000I want to react to this video where two BBC presenters are fired. Let's find out why. Why are they fired? Let's find out, brothers and sisters. I'm going to get straight into it because this is hilarious. Yeah, this is hilarious.
00:01:10.000I think your flag is not up to standard size government interview measurements. I think it's just a little bit small, but that's your department really.
00:01:23.000The picture of the Queen there as well, though, in the Westminster office, I'm assuming.
00:01:30.000These jokes cost BBC Breakfast Today host Naga Manchiti and Charlie State their careers in the BBC. Can you believe that? Let's carry on. Let's carry on. Can you believe that?
00:01:43.000The minister laughed at the joke during the live interview, but later tweeted, we're always proud to fly the union flag at blah, blah, blah. It's a symbol of liberty and freedom that binds the whole nation together.
00:01:58.000Listen to your tweet, go against your, what the hell just happened? They lost their job just because they made that pathetic, weird, just little joke about the size of the union flag. Yeah, and the Queen's picture being there. Okay.
00:02:11.360Manchiti apologized from her Twitter account saying, I like tweets today that were offensive in nature about the use of the British flag as a backdrop in the government interview this morning.
00:02:23.040I have since removed these lights. They do not represent the views of me or the BBC. I apologize for any offense taken.
00:02:29.340British media called for the dismissal of these co-hosts for joking about national symbols. Joking. Not insulting. Joking.
00:02:37.660Yeah. The Telegraph said, the BBC must stop employing those who despise their own country.
00:02:43.080Independent said, love the flag and the Queen or move to another country. Conservative MP tells the public.
00:03:25.060And this is how you know. This is this notion that the far right had as well.
00:03:29.320We saw the freedom speech, the freedom event in Tommy Robinson's when me and my hijab were nearly getting killed because we said, can a Muslim speak?
00:03:35.440They said, no. They're not allowed to speak because they're a Muslim.
00:03:37.640And that interview is coming out with Kaylin Robertson, inshallah.
00:03:41.040Very soon where we also react to a video of her unedited footage of Tommy punching drunk people as usual because that's the only people you can knock down.
