I am surprised by that response. The French can do it—does the Prime Minister really think Britain cannot? Moving on, a New World investigation into GB News has found hundreds of shocking breaches of the rules of impartiality and accuracy, yet Ofcom has repeatedly refused to take action. Andrew Neil says: “Just as Fox basically became the channel of Donald Trump, it’s clear they have turned GB News into the Reform channel”. We cannot let GB News propaganda turn our great country into its version of Trump’s America. Either the Government rules are not fit for purpose or Ofcom is not properly enforcing them—which is it?
