Joe Pike (OW 2006), reporter for ITV, interviewed PM Boris Johnson about the NHS while he was on the campaign trail in December. Pike asked the PM to respond to a photograph of four year-old Jack Williment-Barr, who was pictured lying on a pile of coats after he’d gone to Leeds Royal Infirmary with suspected pneumonia.
Pike’s tweet about the interview, which included a clip of the PM pocketing Pike’s phone, went viral with 11 million views and 54,000 re-tweets.
