SUSANNA Reid has reacted after a cruel troll branded her a "condescending b****".
The insult came after Susanna, 52, interviewed politician Matt Hancock on Good Morning Britain.

After Matt denied he'd broken the law, Susanna asked: "Why didn’t you break the law? Was it reasonably necessary for work purposes?”
