NIGEL FARAGE ON GB NEWS - WTF???

Sure, and that applies to everyone. Even those who proclaim not to watch GB news🤷‍♀️

othering' of people is what has got us into the very scary and precarious situation we are in now

I totally agree with this part. Where is unity now in Britain, for whom?

No. It means somebody saying they're not racist, doesn't mean they're not racist.

This is why the provision of news and information is actually a serious business that was restricted in the past, op: why we used to have qualifications and a public sector broadcaster that was independent of government. It’s too easy to just whip up popular sentiment. Reason and rationality is needed to run a country. It’s been badly abused in favour of playing political games to favour specific groups. We live in degenerate times.

@Kendodd how does that relate to the post above? Someone saying they watch GB news requires a para on how they're secretly racist?

I never 'watch' GB news but sometimes look at clips. It's just a load of people giving their opinion. You don't always have to agree to watch something.

They could do with some more different opinions and they all seem to think the same.

i read an article saying the police were turning away Jewish supporters in London and allowing pro Palestinian marches but if they let small groups of Israeli supporters wade into a large Palestinian march and Israeli supporters are beaten up the police get the blame for not keeping order. Mark Riwley is sacked.
They are there to keep people safe and if it means turning back the small group (because you can’t turn back 100,000) so be it it isn’t because they favour one or the other.
so annoying these days -never accept a reasonable explanation when you can use information to cause anger and upset.

Thing is , with the I'm not a racist' thing, I have never met a racist who actually thinks they are racist, they all just think they're right, And I'm talking about proper 'they should all fuck off home' racists as well as the 'you've got to be Polish to get a job at Aldi, they don't hire English people' racists. I bet Nigel Farage and Donald Trump don't think they're racists and I bet the people supporting them don't think they're racist either.

Well Fox News ,their equivalen in the US , is the main channel people follow for news.

Their aim is to be big in U.K. though, number one (going by their words)

Doesn’t this work both ways? You don’t have to read/follow this thread.

The purpose of GB News is not to be popular in the UK, it’s to give the impression to other countries, particularly America, that certain far right ideas have mainstream support in the UK “Can’t be that bad, I heard it on GB News”

Call them right wing. Call them Left wing. I call them Cunts.🤷‍♀️ There's no getting away from the fact that the Tories wrecked the UK.

That's because it's the most left / centre Tory party we've ever seen .

It amazes me all these people who think Keir Starmer is the holy grail . The country is broke , there's no money to do anything with no matter whose in power so nothing will change .

The Tory Party. Thirteen years of Tory government is what has happened to this once great land.

They have woken up and that's why it's becoming more and more popular . This country is unrecognisable and not everyone wants what's happening to this once great land.

The BBC isn't far left. I find it up the arse of the government. They put a filter on a lot of their news and are quite biased, but this governements antics are getting even more trickier to minimise and distract from now. They should have been ripping them to shreds by now and they don't even get near that.

People are so easily distracted by bullshit and hot air on BBC and GB News. The people on GB News really don't give a even a tiny fuck about regular people and are completely immersed in their own egos and opinions. It's very obvious to me.

I do find a lot of far kept wing news annoying too. Very hard to find news channels/media which isn't biased towards one extreme in some way or has an agenda.

Michelle D is the show I watch . Both sides of the argument and lots of stories I knew nothing about , Waspi women , the post office scandal , leasehold issues etc etc .
Their breakfast show is good aswell , guests from the left and right reviewing the papers .

Oh do give over, I'm more worried about the Islamists and Hamas supporters on the streets, I wish people would wake up.

Yes, and it's not all men on GBN, alot of younger women which gives me hope for the future. And the fact that alot of people are also cancelling their TV licences also great as the younger generation don't watch live TV so hopefully the death knell of the BBC (and I speak as someone who has fond memories of the BBC in the 70s and 80s when there were intelligent interviewers and excellent programmes - you only have to watch old YouTube question times to see how low they've sunk).

OP, I thoroughly agree with you. Normalising GB news and, or, Nigel Farage is awful. Of course we can switch it off but it's still there and that's what is terrifying. His, and GB News, 'othering' of people is what has got us into the very scary and precarious situation we are in now. People really need to wake up to what we're sleepwalking in to.

Me too.

Don't have that tv channel here but at least you have free speech as our RTE here in Ireland so corrupt full of fraud and is a propaganda mouth piece for the government & only seem to report on news in Dublin. Also they are looking for millions to bail them out and people have refused to pay tv license as it came out that the 'so called talent' were spending tv license fee payers money on trips abroad, and all sorts, so corrupt. No-one wants rte anymore and it should be if you want it you subscribe and not a tv license. As for Nigel Farage he always reminds me of a toad, I call him toadie. That channel as far as I can see seems to be all these weird men spouting off, but maybe I am wrong but do believe good to have free speech.
