Colleague made sarky comment about me re. GB News

Discussion at work earlier - does anyone watch the news. Another colleague and I said we don’t mind GB news on occasion to which someone said (directed at me) - ‘I didn’t have you down as one of them’ in a judgemental tone.

Is it me or is that a bit rude and unnecessary?

Nope. You were rude about a specific poster, which is why it was deleted.

So predictable!

Banging the drum?! Grin
Give over. I was pointing out why you were deleted. I can see why you wouldn’t want that to be pointed out mind you.

Oh no, I've realised you can call people names but you can't respond in kind to the one being rude. You have to beat around the bush and word it carefully. You can drop your pearls now.

If you take anything away from this thread @OneStepBeyondd, let it be that GB News is not a news channel.

People judge viewers who think it is.🤷‍♀️

  1. To sack anybody who watches something you are scared of
  2. To not renew your lease with a landlord, who you caught watching GB News.

What I have taken from this thread: anyone rational posts approx once every nine pages.

BIossomtoes · 04/06/2025 21:21

Anyone rational gave up on it some time ago.

Accuracy.

The intolerant left always show their faces to demonstrate that same intolerance. Their little anecdotes, however, are very entertaining. Imagine policing what tv channels your employees/colleagues/ and let's not forget good old landlords 😂 watch. Insular little minds.

I’ll just post this definition of “bigot”

a person who is obstinately or unreasonablyattached to a belief, opinion, or faction, especially one who is prejudiced against or antagonistic towards a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group.
