It’s safe to say that they were divided by the news.

“Susanna’s last day???!!! [bleep] no that [bleeping] sucks,” one viewer tweeted.

Susanna’s announcement comes just a day after a debate she hosted was slammed by viewers.

Yesterday (Tuesday, July 12) saw Susanna and Ed Balls host a debate over whether it’s too hot to work at the moment.

The hosts were joined by Marvyn Harrison and Hellen Ward to discuss the heatwave and how employers can help lessen the effect it’s having on workers.

“As a country can we not just deal with it? Be hot for a few days!” one viewer tweeted.

“Get a grip. That’s life, live with it!” another said.
