GB News is pretty woke if you think about it.

Plenty of presenters with sun tans and with criminal records, primetime with a camp gay man who makes John Inman look like Rambo and an advertiser called DuGuud.

GB News? GB Fucking Woke.

What I don't understand is Neil also runs Spectator TV which is what I hoped GBN would be.

It's plainly right-wing but the commentators they have on are well researched and really interesting even if you don't agree with them. They have the likes of Suzanne Moore, Douglas Murrary, Sunetra Gupta and other long-form columnists who build an interesting point of view.

GBN has Darren Grimes and Jon Gaunt.

They had a great opportunity to promote intelligent and interesting commentary, they appear to be promoting right-wing Twitter trolls.

It's a crying shame.

The type of people who GB news was designed to attract have socially conservative views but other than that have very little in common with the sort who read the spectator or view the latter's TV/online content.

There IS some good stuff on there, but I'm, not prepared to watch all of it just for the moments of gold: I'll wait for them to turn up on Youtube. THIS, for instance; an interview on recent events with Dr Dominic Green, son of Benny.

Alex Phillips is annoying. She's only 37; looks ten years older.

I wish you'd told me that before I watched it.
I feel really stupid now. I watched the interview , as opposed to judging her looks. What a mug!
