I always find myself wondering why the silent majority never shut the fuck up.

What on Earth have the rest of their presenters being (allegedly) doing since the channel launched?

Who could have seen this coming?

Sunak's basically reduced his party to being a launching pad for a media career.

Not only that, but why there appears to be so few of them.

Hope he’s cleared it through the correct channels

Because there's not as many of them as they like to think.

I really, really hope he hasn't.

Time and again the absolute hollowness of the whole conservative shtick is made apparent, and time and again they all convince themselves they're not parodies of themselves.

Chairman of a political party - that also forms the government - joins 'outsider' news channel to moan about librul backscratching and conceit.

It's performance art at this point.

Performance yes, art, no...

When you’re too washed up for GBNews. Its a blog for Kelvin and some equally unsavoury old hacks writing hate for free

Kelvin's last venture was "A Spokesman Said...", a site for rating tradespeople. When sites such as CheckaTrade and seemingly every staff intranet were doing just that.

Losses deepen at GB News as network moves to fend off rival TalkTV

Financial losses at GB News grew substantially last year to more than £30m, as the right-leaning news channel invested in hiring presenters to combat the launch of rival TalkTV.

The controversy-prone channel racked up a pre-tax loss of £30.7m in the year to the end of May 2022, a period in which it hired former Ukip leader Nigel Farage to host a nightly primetime show.

Rupert Murdoch’s rival TalkTV launched in April last year, spearheaded by marquee signing Piers Morgan’s daily show Uncensored.

More recent GB News appointments have included Conservative MPs Jacob Rees-Mogg, Esther McVey, Philip Davies and earlier this month Lee Anderson, the outspoken Tory party deputy chair...

Last August, there was a shake-up among its backers, with the founding investor Discovery selling up, and the existing shareholders Sir Paul Marshall, the Brexiter hedge fund tycoon, and Legatum, the Dubai-based investment company founded by the New Zealand billionaire Christopher Chandler, taking control.

Financial accounts for Discovery’s UK business subsequently revealed it sold its 25% stake for £8m, a 60% drop on the original £20m it paid, which would suggest the value of GB News has fallen from £80m at launch to £32m.

It does you good to laugh.
