I dunno, as long as it's all stuff like this I reckon I can get on board. I do also like how they appear to be interviewing him in the middle of his half ten curry after he's stayed out a bit late with his workmates. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Gave GB News 5 minutes this morning. Its basically if that racist relative of yours televised their facebook. A short opinion piece on migrants crossing the channel and footballers taking the knee. I suspect they will be setting up a standing order with Ofcom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 not too long back finished one of neil oliver's books ( british isles in a hundred places ). It was quite engaging, and mostly apolitical. What a shame to discover he's a lunatic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MessiWillSignForVilla Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 GB News has fell for texts from both Mike Hunt and Mike Oxlong today, plus the production quality is absolute dogshit with technical errors and spelling mistakes all over the shop, and to top it all off, judging from twitter, about 90% of their audience are watching just to take the piss out of them. Oh, and the fans they do have praised some of the companies that were running ads on the channel, which prompted loads of them to pull out. Going well then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going well then It's probably worth it for people who are watching anyway to watch it with a copy of the Ofcom rulebook, because as I understand it, the rules are really quite tight around things like ad-minutage per hour, and Ofcom are not shy to lob out fines for infractions.

Popular Post ml1dch Posted June 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2021 I'm guessing they've skimped on the department that tells presenters the potential problems with their choice of clothes (Yes, I know they want people to hate-share. I'm sure it'll get boring soon enough) 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted June 18, 2021 Moderator Share Posted June 18, 2021 IKEA pulled their advertising from GB News Is the way to get people not to pull their advertising this? Is the way to encourage new advertisers to replace the ones lost this? I somehow think, throwing one's toys out of the pram and directly into the face of the former advertiser is not an approach that would be recommended by many Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess companies don't know and don't really care what petty shit Andrew Neil puts on his Twitter feed at the end of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
