Name it? Hang on, why am I being asked to answer questions when you just ignore them? Bit of a cheek if you ask me.

If the TV licence funded GB news I would gladly pay it. That's a silly position - if you resent paying the license fee because you think the BBC is biased, why would you gladly pay to it an organisation which is objectively more biased?

Because it's been so good under the Tories for the last 13 years not! Gullible doesn't do it justice, but hey ho, all the time these corrupt idiots have got your vote they don't care, nor should they. I appreciate it may me hard, but instead of saying what it may be like under labour, please tell me what the worst PM we have ever had has done to improve our lot! The Tories must just look at this demographic and laugh - an unconditional vote no matter what, and however bad they continue to screw them, they'll just keep gleefully voting for me because Rupert Murdoch told them Labour would be worse - who needs to actually engage in the voting process when you can quite literally parrot the same tropes for decades and think that's a valid political view. Despite the decades of evidence to the contrary, you still get people suggesting this Tory party are the ones of economic sensibility, the ones who can control immigration, the ones who are tough on law and order... none of these conversations are based in reality, purely based on lazy stereotyping people have lapped up over time. There are posters on these boards whose politics couldn't be further from mine, but they at least have some principle about them to be truthful about 'their party' or the party which purports to represent them - I have infinitely more respect for this than those who picked a team 30 years ago and think it is their job to support them no matter what.

If the BBC was impartial, unbias, not a woke propaganda machine and neutral I would have no problem. As such it is. Between that and the bias of GB news I would prefer GB news.

If you're principally opposed to a mandatory license fee, fair enough - it doesn't make a shred of sense to then suggest you'd happily pay for a different bias, because you're then guilty of doing the thing you're supposedly opposed to. If you want to financially support GB News off your own back, I'm sure there are avenues to do that, but framing it around a license fee doesn't really make sense. You can always go and donate to that fake priests' latest holiday or something.
