Richard Madeley was forced to halt Good Morning Britain on Thursday following a sound blunder.

“What?” Richard said in shock as Sally repeated: “Yes, 40 percent.”
She went on to add that the system is “underfunded” before explaining: “I have three kids who are all neurodiverse and have different needs.”
