Lord Sugar slams the Daily Mail's Paul Dacre

Lord Sugar tells Channel 4 News that Daily Mail editor Paul Dacre "has gone too far this time" after the paper depicted Ed Miliband's father as "the man who hated Britain".

Fantastic interview. Sugar is right on the mark

[@McElhinney65]

I love Alan Sugar, he wouldn't be manipulated. "If you lie down with dogs you get fleas".

[@cherryrotella3714]

McElhinney65 she’s a foolish woman to try and trip Lord Sugar up

[@deesee6009]

"So what you're saying is ... blow the Daily Mail up with a bazooka and make Dacre's wife a widow" - that interviewer

[@cadnewham]

The Daily Mail appeals to the worse side of humanity.

[phone] What are you on about you fucking idiot ?

[@adik4309]

So does the guardian

[@Pascaldacashcow]

Hill_D0gs Hairy_pusss Care to continue? Explain the idiocy in not assuming all mail readers are nationalists. You negative numpty

[@Barney-ii1no]

scum bag daily mail reader with no brains, cant think for themselves

[@jeremysmith54565]

"Doesn't really work as a left leaning view point if you 'demonize mail readers as what I assume is violent skinheads'. A leftist philosophy may include working with prisons to re intergrate offenders, interesting how a lot of pro left(claimants)" no one's saying that you fucking imbecile lol *with what I put between inverted commas of what you said* typical DM bull shitter is all I see putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with 100, also commonly referred to as taking a general idea and taking to the Nth degree.

Sugar is so unflappable.

[@TerryTanktop]

Ha ha, love Lord Sugar's way of speaking

[@jasonosborne3602]

Terry Tanktop daily mail bile

[@jordandevine692]

Lord sugar is a legend

[@imtiyazkhan-vy5os]

Good on Alan sugar regarding daily mail

[@tomlennon3469]

how annoying is SHE! I hate it when interviewers try to trip people up!

[@geoffbuckley443]

Im a huge Lord Sugar fan but I think she is a great interviewer asking the hard questions

[@NicholasWarnertheFirst]

Isn't that the point of journalism?

[@tomrose2086]

"gone too far THIS TIME" No. He has gone too far ONE MORE TIME. The man is a disgrace. Absolutely horrible, like his horrible, sleazy "news" paper. It is an insult to all decent people that such a man is rich and powerful. But Lord Sugar has just gone up several rungs on my admiration ladder.

[@amby3000]

talk about a biased interviewer... good work lord sugar! didn't let her squeeze him into saying something that could be exploited and transformed into some sensationalist anti-left headline

[@Camel.Yellow]

It's the interviewer's job to ask questions that make the person being interviewed's stance look weak, did you expect her to agree with Sugar in the interview? Because that would actually be biased

[@sineadoconormcG]

This particular interview is pretty well known for being a loony lefty, and she works for Channel 4, a noted left leaning broadcaster. So I doubt there's any desire to catch out Labour peer Lord Sugar, and even less to produce an "anti left" headline.

[@karimtabrizi376]

Bravo lord sugar. You gain my respect. Daily mail was nazi sympathy paper.

[@AsaPhelps]

‘You have to fight fire with fire, it’s the only thing these lowlifes understand.’ Very true and applies to all levels of British politics, great line.

[@hor9278]

The Daily Hate. With all its lies about the EU, immigrants and people looks. Classy!!

[@nmp3132]

Could this woman be any more partisan? "So you're stooping to his level... So it's alright for you to do that, but not him... Say a mob turns up at his house..."

[@justjames1111]

Alan Sugar is always worth listening to, a decent down to earth man with a strong moral compass unlike the scum bags like dacre and his paymasters.

[@Sou1defiler]

lol. Lord Sugar. "Fight fire with fire.." Quite fucking right. Deal with it Dacre.

[@VanlifewithAlan]

Don't blame the advertisers. Blame yourselves for buying from the advertisers and #DontFundHate lists who they are. I have stopped buying from the Co-op, Marks and Spencers and others because of their advertising in the Mail.

[@shabnamrafique7730]

And to think Dodi al Fayed's dad was denied a British passport, a son and potential daughter-in-law. Dodi al Fayed's dad is the only one to call out British politics for what it really is. ... He also paid the ultimate price for it.

[@chrisdown4766]

she wanted "red ed" to stick out and she succeeded well done, ugh made me sick

[@JONNOG88]

Strangely enough Sugar. Follows the Daily Mail on his Twitter.

[@adamkenny6955]

The daily fail is pure social and political poison

[@rehanpatel9797]

Sorry sooo much jealousy here. Why does everyone hate him? He is a multimillionaire, everyone who makes a negative comment would love to be him. Stop hating the rich, its not their fault you are poor.

[@cherylno583]

i dont like the guy in general but this is probably his finest moment ngl

[@taragragg400]

They hired Dana Loesch. Abortions and Hitler. On the radio.

[@NibberKSmooth]

Some journo's love a good shit stir and disguise it as impartiality.

[@NibberKSmooth]

Daily Mail is the UK's Breitbart. Loathe both.

[@Holly-iz4vx]

Please can we stop calling him "Lord", we don't have to be bootlickers.

ALAAAAAN :D

[@itrollforaliving9039]

Steeeve! xD

[@Sam-ch9mn]

Paul Dacre repeatedly exposed David Cameron’s vacuous politics and weakness in the two years up to the EU referendum and Cameron tried to get Dacre sacked. Who eventually did lose their job? Not Dacre. Alan Sugar is even less of a challenge to Dacre and should wind his neck in. It will only end in tears. PS. Lord Rothermere, owner of Associated Press and Dacre’s boss, deserves a big up for rejecting Cameron’s attempt to have Dacre sacked.
