The Tory MP gave an interview with Carl Benjamin that is set to be streamed on his Lotus Eaters website.
Rishi Sunak has been urged to deselect Liz Truss as a Tory candidate over her appearance on a "far-right" platform founded by a commentator who joked about raping an MP.
In her letter to the Prime Minister, Ms Phillips wrote: "It is clear that anyone willing to appear on this hateful platform is not suitable to be a candidate for any political party. Even Reform UK deselected one of its candidates after his harmful views and work as a content creator for Lotus Eaters was exposed.
But campaign group Hope Not Hate said it is "completely irresponsible" for any MP or candidate to share a platform with such "far-right activists" and called for Ms Truss to be suspended from the Tories.
