I was agreeing with you until the final words. You should have left it at the word "alternative". GB News is most emphatically a Tory mouthpiece, even if not all the Tory Party agree with it. You must be watching a different GB News. It is like saying that the BBC or ITN support Labour. They are left leaning, but that is not the same thing. I would imagine that there is a broad spectrum of opinions, as with most organisations.

I rather like it and have started to watch it at lunchtime. The production is still a bit amateurish with Emily and Tom interrupting each other but I prefer the content

Then, when they have been in power for a while and the political scrutiny is focused on them, you will soon start to hear the left complaining about bias every bit as vociferously as the right do now.

The technical side has always been a bit ropey, but it is a channel running on a tiny budget compared to the big beasts.

And Dr Bull and Dr Renee (agree with everything she says) on sat and sun mornings is very good!

Yes, it is. Why will i have to wait for a couple of years to be convinced?

It employs Tory MP's and those too far right that they have managed to lose the Tory Whip. I have yet to see the BBC employ any Labour members of Parliament.

Once that happens the BBC and every other broadcaster will be perceived by those on the left as biased against them. That’s the way it works. Those with the actual responsibility to do things always get heavily criticised. Those who only have to theorise about doing things cannot make mistakes, so don’t to anything like the same degree.

I have yet to see the BBC employ any Labour members of Parliament. Is a very good point. I dip in from time to time, find the views distasteful and leave again. It’s not news at all. It’s propaganda barely disguised as news and current affairs. It does though have a point. Making sure these ideas are exposed means they can be countered by intelligent arguments and those who hold them forced to defend them.
