Not that I even care what happens at GB news, but pointing out the hypocrisy is just pure fun.

Well how dare the industry regulator expect GB News to abide by the industry regulations? That is just not fair! /sarcasm All The Best Oh btw congrats PV, you must be well on the way to winning "Least Appropriate Username of the Year".
That might be true if you could provide evidence I have lied - but as you can't, it isn't. Emoticons are no substitute for genuine debate. All The Best

GB News ensures that all guests from the left are treated with respect and courtesy, Sir Jacob Rees Mogg has many people on his show from Stop Oil, leftie councils, leftie universities and they are all given an opportunity to put forward their views without being shouted down. And still the left don't like it because they think that only their views should be heard.

The MPs will need a job to go to after the election because they can't live off Universal Credit. They are just getting in early. Not their fault. Who will pay for their crap if they are not in power? GB news is losing mega amounts of cash. If that is true, its the best news I have heard for some time.

Doesn't surprise me. Farage was first de-banked. Now, as an "ex-politician" his own show gets more figures than Sky and BBC, but according to the media establishment this isn't good for democracy. Welcome to Soviet Britain! Soviet Britain is OTT, it is more a case of distancing things from swinging too far to the right.

The Left can't engage in fair debate and have to shut down the platform.

And still the left don't like it because they think that only their views should be heard. I think its possibly the case that Right of center views have so overwhelmed the views of the Left, and the centre-Left in particular, in the past that extra attempts are being made in order to get their opinions better heard.

Doesn't surprise me. Farage was first de-banked. Now, as an "ex-politician" his own show gets more figures than Sky and BBC, but according to the media establishment this isn't good for democracy. Welcome to Soviet Britain! Well, he was de-banked because his account no longer met the requirements for the type of account he held with Coutts. Yes, NatWest were very shoddy in how they handled the publicity of it all, but closing down an account that no longer meets the requirements for that account is hardly de-banking, it is good house-keeping. All The Best You are ignoring the results of his SAR application where it was shown in written notes/minutes that he was 'debanked' because of who he was - maybe doing so fits your agenda? Documents disclosed by the bank to Farage following his submission of a subject access request showed that the decision by the bank's Wealth Reputational Risk Committee to close his accounts, according to the 40-page dossier, was in part due to his views being considered incompatible with the bank's "values or purpose". The dossier revealed that Farage was classed as a "lower risk" politically exposed person (PEP).[3] It went to note that the bank considered declassifying Farage as a PEP on their next review in 2022. His status was maintained, however, in 2023, owing to his public profile and reported links to Russia.[3]
Within the document, an update to Farage's notes from 10 March 2023 stated "The relationship has been below commercial criteria for some time and upon review of Nigel's past public profile and connections, the perceived risks for the future weighed against the benefit of retention the decision was taken to exit upon repayment of an existing mortgage."[3] It adds that continuing to do business with him was "not compatible with Coutts given his publicly-stated views" and the decision was "This was not a political decision but one centred around inclusivity and purpose".[6en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigel_Farage_Coutts_bank_scandal

This is nothing more than left wing envy particularly from the BBC and Sky who are jealous of GB News success. If you have a look at GB News presenters just two are MP's one of whom is a Tory, and that's what really annoys small minded bitter lefties.

All The Best Absolute rubbish. If Farage had been de-banked by Coutts/NatWest because he no longer met the banks criteria for holding an account, then NatWest Chief Exec Dame Alison Rose and Coutts CEO Peter Flavell would not have lost their jobs. This has previously been discussed in depth on this forum.

I suspect attacking a Right-wing news outlet is just a case of people defending the country from Right-Wing extremism. Right wing extremism is, just like Left-wing extremism, out on the extremes of political thinking, these positions are, again IMO, held by individuals who allow their feelings to dominate their logical mind, thus producing illogical thoughts.

I am not an "outraged lefty" so If you want a debate do not start with your typical Rightist DNA style denigrating approach. Get real or STFU.
