PIERS Morgan and Susanna Reid clashed with a "Make Women Great Again" activist during an awkward "anti-feminism" debate on Good Morning Britain today.

Anthony Dream Johnson was on the breakfast show to discuss his upcoming convention that aimed to "mansplain" how to be the perfect woman as he slammed the women's rights movement.

Tickets to the 22 convention in Florida cost $999, with only women invited and 20 male speakers booked to remind the audience that "women follow, men lead".

The event aims to warn women against "unhealthy, militant feminists", teach them the importance of family and having children because their "clock is ticking", with Anthony adding that he hopes to "win" this feminism war – which he called "a war on family, that needs to end immediately".

While Susanna, 49, showed her disdain for the topic immediately, 54-year-old Piers seemingly looked uncomfortable when Anthony said that he considered the British star a frontman for the cause.

While the TV presenter was quick to insist that he would consider himself a feminist – much to Anthony's dismay – he also ruffled feathers when he asked why Anthony was currently single.

The activist branded Piers "judgey" during the awkward exchange, which started with Piers asking: "This might be a little personal, but are you married?"

Anthony replied that he wasn't and also confirmed that he didn't currently have a partner.

Piers continued: "Why do you think that is? No woman has bought into your sales pitch.

"Nobody wants to marry you or be with you it seems, why aren't women racing to be with the guy who can tell them how to lead their lives?"

The irate guest snapped: "Hey, look, you want to get in my personal life, why are you being so nosy?

"Why are you being so judgey? I am living my life the way I want."

Clearly stunned, Piers hit back: "You're the most judgemental guest we have ever had!

"You seem to be struggling to persuade any woman to be with you."

Viewers at home were also shocked by the segment, taking to Twitter to share their offence at the Make Women Great Again convention.

One fan wrote: "Who is this absolute c**kwomble on @GMB!?!?!?

"What an absolute arrogant, patronising t**t he is!! I mean the name says it all! I'd like to ram that cap straight up his mansplaining a**e!!"

Another added: "This guy is genuinely serious. This is really worrying that people think like this. F**k me."

A third said: "What am I watching!? Anthony Dream Johnson is an anti feminist who says make women great again.

"Jesus Christ, just a blatant sexist who hides behind a façade as a male speaker. What a d**khead.

One viewer heaped praise on Susanna, writing: "Loving watching @susannareid100 hanging this 'Make Women Great' dude out to dry, while @PiersMorgan looks on bemused, unsure quite which way to take this one."
