Piers Morgan has brewed up a roiling Twitter controversy by calling out Daniel Craig for carrying a tool that the majority dads are most likely acquainted with: a child service (or as Morgan calls it, a papoose). In a tweet, Morgan shamed the James Bond star for placing one on, and recommended that doing so was emasculating:
Oh 007.. not you as nicely?!!! #papoose #emasculatedBond pic.twitter.com/cqWiCRCFt3

The BBC reports that Craig was carrying his child daughter, who’s only a few weeks previous. As soon as the tweet went out, dads on each side of the Atlantic shortly chimed in to voice their help for Craig and his little one service of selection. Morgan has been bombarded by males tweeting footage of themselves carrying their very own youngsters round and pushing again on his feedback.

Just a few hours after his first tweet, Morgan doubled down on the recent take by suggesting that he’d make a greater bond than Craig:
One factor’s clear after tonight’s ferocious Papoose-gate debate: we’d like a brand new James Bond.

And that actually set folks off. Dads (and loads of girls, too) have been furiously tweeting to set him straight. Piers has since tried to make clear his viewpoint by arguing that he has no downside with dads holding their infants—it’s simply the child service he doesn’t like. Or possibly he simply didn’t wish to make The Rock offended:
The Rock’s utilizing his arms, not a papoose. Clearly agrees with me. https://t.co/swCQQvpxYV
