The latest voice to jump into the Muslim immigration debate is err The Voice host…Sonia Kruger. On The Today Show, Kruger went on a bizarre rant this morning, and there was no stopping her.

Kruger ended up in a standoff with fellow host Lisa Wilkinson and David Campbell, after saying that she agrees with Andrew Bolt (*shudders*) and that:

“Personally I would like to see it [the immigration of Muslims] stopped now for Australia because I would like to feel safe as all of our citizens do when they go out to celebrate Australia Day and I’d like to see freedom of speech.”

It got very awkward between the hosts and Kruger, who refused to back down even after Wilkinson said that there were Muslims killed in the Nice attack, and likened her stance to Donald Trump.

Kruger has this afternoon released a statement via social media, not backing down on her comments.
