I was rather impressed with Graham though Cinders, he seemed to talk some sense. Very unusual in the commons these days.....

What was needed was an apolitical news channel that gives equal weight to all sides of a story, and hopefully, GBNews will fit the bill.

Yes, he's an accomplished and persuasive speaker. Just what we need. Of course, I'd rather he was PM.

Think somebody will complain about drinking alcohol on air.

Shame live interview in London covering protest against covid and restrictions was abandoned due to woman using foul language.

GB News attracted zero viewers during some of its broadcasts this week, according to official television audience figures produced by rating agency Barb, after a viewer boycott prompted by one of its presenters taking the knee in solidarity with the England football team.

Business editor Liam Halligan and former Labour MP Gloria De Piero attracted no measurable audience to their show between 1pm and 1.30pm on Wednesday afternoon. During the same timeslot the BBC News channel attracted 62,000 viewers, while Sky News had 50,000 people watching.

GB News’ audience again briefly dipped to zero at 5pm, during a late-afternoon programme co-hosted by ex-BBC presenter Simon McCoy and former Ukip spokesperson Alex Phillips.

Clearly some presenters are more popular and watchable.

Clearly the established news channels and papers are piqued.

If you agree to all the hate spewed out against people who exercise their rights either not to wear a face covering or decline from having the vaccine, just tune into the BBC's endless brainwashing, manipulating, fearmongering and anti patriotic shite.
Apparently, the viewing figures for his show exceeded one million.

Yes, I was watching that earlier today.
It's a shame that some people, notable young people, don't seem able to behave themselves.
She achieved nothing other than showing herself up, and her protest too.
