I think Camilla T would be excellent in presenting the election head-to-heads. She has really good political knowledge and her interviews are always interesting and to the point. She doesn't let folk get away with not answering her questions, although some are so slippery she has to give up in the end.

I like Camilla T, straight talking, she’s an asset to GB News.
The woman presenting on the head to heads really isn’t up to it, can’t remember her name.

A halo and a medal just for you 😁

Thank you. Sorry, Shinamae, I didn't notice that the medal was from you. I shall wear them both while sneering at GB News and Farage!

Camilla T is great. She speaks crisply and is a very intelligent lady.

Of course there will always be those on here who dislike her because she works on GB News but she is head and shoulders above any other female presenters on other channels.

I looked up Farag'es record when he was a Euro MP and his attendance was dire. So will he attend parliament if elected ?

This thread is about Camilla T. 🤔

If you want to run down anybody else, then start your own. 👍

You must be joking. Sophie Ridge on Sky - politics Hub is so much better than CT. I have no idea who the former supports but does not disguise her allegiances.

Farage was a nuisance and an embarrassment as an MEP. I hated the idea that we, as UK citizens, were being judged as being no better than Farage!

That problem is in your head.
No one can make you feel inferior without your permission.

Wyllow3 Tue 11-Jun-24 19:30:28

Well I hated it too, the UK being judged by his antics. Its not personal.

Wheniwasyourage Tue 11-Jun-24 20:51:15

So did I. The man’s an embarrassment and I don’t know why people take him seriously.

Well ... I for one can't stand her, and I can't stand GB News either.

Just as I said earlier! People who don’t like GB News don’t like the presenters. 🤣🤣

So many good presenters on GB news, including Patrick Christie, Michael Portillo and Christine Hamilton..
I was at devotee of sky News but now I will not watch any news but GB News as they are unbiased in their opinions and cover a wide range of subjects
Obviously not to everybody’s taste, but hey ho I’m sure they wouldn’t lose any sleep about that..😁

GB news is not impartial.

Also from the Guardian
"The Conservative party conference featured so many GB News shout-outs that you could almost imagine they were concerted.

“I do also want to welcome some more friends here tonight,” announced Priti Patel at one point. “Our friends that are here, the newest, most successful, most dynamic, no-nonsense news station, and the defenders of free speech, that is my friends at GB News.

Thank you for everything that you do. Just incredible.

Honestly, just incredible.” Then there was Liz Truss. “Thank you for all you do,” she declared on stage to a GB News presenter. “And thank you for your work on GB News"

Its owners, Paul Marshall and Legatum, are to the right:

Legatum is
I don't The Legatum Institute is a right wing think tank based in London, UK. Its stated aim is to advance the education of the public in national and international political, social and economic policy. The Institute has over forty donors including the Legatum Foundation.

I don't agree that he has particularly good oratory skills, and even if he did, the amount of rubbish he speaks would detract from them! Dreadful man.

😂😂 👏👏👏👏👏

He really is an odious man! I simply cannot see how people are sucked in by this “man of the people” claptrap!

He’s never been “average, normal working man”. He attended Dulwich College, worked in the Commodities Market, his MEP track record of attending is abysmal, happy to mislead and persuade the UK to vote for Brexit whilst (smugly) claiming his big fat MEP pension and getting his kids dual nationality, and whilst I agree immigration needs controlling, both legally and illegally, his assertion that this should be “an immigration election” is bordering on xenophobia.

Those people who support him and also call Starmer “Mr Flip-Flip” may wish to look again at Farage’s political career, standing SEVEN times as a UK MP (& failing) for various Political Parties!

I’m still not sure if Reform is actually registered as a Political Party nor that they have a well written, fully costed referendum. Some of their candidates leave much to be desired and, despite their “supporters” assertions to the contrary, they are a far-right party.

I wouldn’t judge her simply because of the programme she presents. I’m not a fan of The Daily Mail, but in the past, they’d had some brilliant investiture journalists who’ve uncovered and published/publicised some huge “wrongs”, particularly around closed family courts cases.

I’ve not watched Camilla, as I’m not a fan of GB News, but I will tune in and watch her so I can form a balanced judgement.
