Piers Morgan has waded into Jo Brand row after the comedian said she fantasises about she doesn't like.
So far the BBC have refused to condemn Jo over the comments made on Radio 4 programme Heresy on Tuesday night.
While speaking to Victoria Coren Mitchell, Jo was asked if we as a nation are “absolutely united in feeling we are living through a terrible time” in terms of divisions being stoked over Brexit .
61-year-old Jo responded: “I would say that but that is because certain unpleasant characters are being thrown to the fore.
"And they are very very easy to hate. I am kind of thinking, why bother with a milkshake, when you could get some battery acid? That’s just me, sorry.
“I’m not gonna do it, it’s purely a fantasy, but I think milkshakes are pathetic, I honestly do. Sorry.”
The response caused shocked laughter at the recording, and host Victoria moved the programme on afterwards to a different subject.
Good Morning Britain host Piers Morgan has now spoken out to accuse to accuse the BBC of double standards after Danny Baker was sacked last month over an offensive comment about the royal baby .
Taking to Twitter , Piers fired: "Why did the BBC instantly sack Danny Baker for an offensive royal baby tweet but won’t sack Jo Brand for saying she’d like acid to be thrown at politicians?”
Baker,61, sparked a social media storm before being booting off his Radio 5 programme for tweeting an image of a couple holding hands with a chimpanzee dressed in nice clothes along with the caption, "Royal Baby leaves hospital".
The BBC called Baker's tweet a “serious error of judgement" that "goes against the values we as a station aim to embody”.
After Jo's comments were reported online, MEP Nigel Farage called for police to take action.
Farage recently had a milkshake thrown over him whilst out meeting the public.
He said: “This is incitement of violence and the police need to act.”
Mirror Online has contacted representatives for Jo Brand and a BBC spokesperson for comment.
