Camilla Tominey hits back at Steve Reed after housing jibe: ‘I do my own research!’

On 1 Feb 2026, Camilla Tom – a GB News journalist – confronted Housing Secretary Steve Reed during a live studio interview in London. Reed asked if Tom knew how much the increase in new housing starts had risen this year compared to last year, a prompt that Tom dismissed as a “jibe.” She replied, “I do my own research,” and quickly counter‑argued that the data were far from unclear. The exchange, captured on GB News’ flagship political programme, highlighted differing views on data usage in policy debate. Tom’s retort was shared widely on social media, sparking discussion about the role of independent research in governmental accountability.
