I love GB News

I recently started watching GB News and am finding it so interesting. Once you get past the different format to the usual news programmes it is very good. There are so many different views expressed from all political spectrums. I like that contributors are allowed to say their piece and it's then debated. Not just left or right wing views.

Anne Diamond has been awarded the OBE for her journalism work and all her charity work including the Cot Death awareness campaign when one of her sons was a victim many years ago.

Labour MP Chris Bryant made himself look a fool on TV last night when he refused to apologise to Nigel Farage for lying in Parliament that NF had received a huge sum from Russia. People then repeated the lie (including a few on here) which led in part to NF getting debanked. I wonder if those on here who shared this lie might also retract their words?

Retract their words???……😂😂😂…🐷 just saw that flying by..

Well, you never know Shinamae 🤣🤣🤣

As usual, Patrick speaking a lot of sense..

I agree with you Primrose53, Calvin Robinson has been shabbily treated.
It seems there could be more to all of this. There are a few rumbles in the press, although I haven't read anything myself
The LF outburst seems to have been a catalyst.

He was interviewed on Sky News and I felt the interviewer was exasperated with him.

Very sad news about Revd. Calvin. I really liked him and don’t think he deserved sacking. To the best of my knowledge all he said was he wasn’t going to appear on Dan Wooton’s show and that he supported him.

Shinamae Wed 04-Oct-23 17:01:23

And so it is reported Calvin Robinson has also been sacked…

Shinamae Wed 04-Oct-23 16:44:44

Bet they loved Bravermans speech.

Shinamae Tue 03-Oct-23 16:47:12

Very good coverage of the Conservative party conference by Patrick..

What I really like about GB news is that you can email them in with your opinion and usually it will be read out …

That's because not many people particpate.

That’s quite clever. Because, if you email in, you then listen to the rest of the programme to hear your email being read out. I wonder what percentage are read out and how many of them are critical of the channel?

I’m happy with Sky News, Ch4 News and The Rest is Politics to be honest. To me GB News is the equivalent of Fox News in America and we wouldn’t have that on when we were on holiday there.

Exactly.

Im hiding this discussion it is far too depressing exactly how many on here think it is worth watching! No wonder the country is in such a state.

Yes, the country is on its knees because people like GB news 😂😂

Nothing like Fox News, and no I wouldn’t watch that either.
I can see that nothing will induce you to give GB News a chance, but that’s your choice.

Maybee70 I’m a Labour voter like you, the guests on GB news are from all political views and none.You may like the breakfast spot, or the lunch time ones more than the evenings, but I guarantee there’ll be something for you to watch and like.

MayBee70 Mon 02-Oct-23 14:13:23

Liz Truss is a big fan ( supposedly she praised it at a side event at the party conference). Sums the channel up quite well really. Bet she’s after a job there; she’d fit in quite well….
