If I were a brand manager, and I'm not, I'd have noticed that specifying that I wasn't going to advertise with GBNews tends to reach pretty far and wide with younger, better educated and possibly better off potential customers for free. whereas paying to advertise on GBN reaches the GBN audience, all five dozen of them

Let it go. Coffee is for the metropolitan elite and foreigners, anyway. A proper cuppa is what viewers want.

Free marketeers whinge that invisible hand is soooo unfair.

Whose, "Dewbs". FFS.

Inevitable, isn't it?

A couple of days ago Grind had 9,000 followers on Twitter. That's up to 11,200 now.

I've not been following the thread in detail.
Is "Grind" Crafty Darren's gangsta rap name?

[Andy McDandy]

Ho ho.

No, it's a coffee brand that pulled its advertising from the channel, prompting "Dewbs" to have a strop.

[davidjay]

A perfectly balanced news item on a perfectly respectable news channel.

Who could have seen this coming?

It looks like Dan Wootton is currently trending on Twitter for all the wrong reasons. Some of his past indiscretions have finally caught up with him. Apparently he has spent most of the day deleting all the nasty tweets he posted with regards to the BBC presenter being monstered by 'The Sun'.

It will be interesting to see if GB News have the balls to suspend Wootton while the allegations are properly investigated.

[kreuzberger]

Wooton, that poisonous toilet, being flushed down Twitter tonight. Delicious.

[MisterMuncher]

If Columbo visited GBeebies, he'd spend most of his time talking to Wooton, as his principal skill is knowing a cunt when he sees one. You could know nothing about that man and see him speak for three sentences and know in your heart that he was as intrinsically bent as the road to Benburb.

The only sadness is that he had attained no grace from which to fall

[safe_timber_man]

Saying this...on the Dan Wootton show...which Dan Wootton isn't presenting because of allegations against him which GB News are protecting him from. Amazing.

[Andy McDandy]

Mark Dolan's quite the cunt, isn't he? Reminiscent of a young Gove.

Never heard that one or Benburb. Every day’s a school day on Mailwatch

It is best known, in historical terms, for the Battle of Benburb that took place there in 1646. This was fought between the armies of Confederate Ireland led by Owen Roe O'Neill and the Scottish Covenanters led by Munro. The battle resulted in a crushing victory for O'Neill's men at the townland of Drumflugh around a mile outside the village. It was commemorated in the ballad "The Battle of Benburb".

GBN won’t gain much traction slagging off Edwards. This is a public more tolerant than I am on these matters as they cut that cunt Barrymore slack.

I had to look up Negroni. I see it's a cocktail.

I've given up on big nights out in noisy bars, but I do dimly recall that lots of not obviously metro elite people drink cocktails.

It's times like this I wish I had Twatter to see what all the fuss was about re: Wooton.

It's times like this I wish I had Twatter to see what all the fuss was about re: Wooton.

Briefly and broadly: Wooton has been collecting footage of colleagues, celebrities and rivals engaged in sexual activity for uncertain purposes*. As well as directly having it filmed, he's been using sock accounts on dating and social sites to solicit pics and video.


*as in I am uncertain which particular element of law it comes under, extortion or blackmail
