Emily Maitlis is the new lead presenter for BBC Two's Newsnight, it has been announced.

Kirsty Wark will be taking up an enhanced role on the programme and Emma Barnett will also be joining the presenting team. 

Maitlis said: 'I am delighted to be moving into this role at a time when Newsnight feels so pivotal to our understanding of this extraordinary moment in British history, and to be working with such an exceptional team.'

Wark, who has been one of the main presenters on the show for more than 20 years, said: 'There is no better place to be right now on British television as we navigate great shifts in politics, international relations and the way we live our lives.

'I love the fact that Newsnight is equipped with a tremendous mix of people who can deliver impact-making journalism with real flair.'  

Last week, Maitlis was praised by viewers for rolling her eyes at Labour's Barry Gardiner when he could not reveal the party's policy if there was to be another general election.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
