As the old adage says, the devil looks after his own.

Or not, in this particular case!

Oh dear, how sad, never mind.

At last, something to be happy about - and not merely because of its dent in Nigel Farage's profile and wallet and that of every other piece of Right Wing scum that works at this nefarious fascist platform. This was never a TV news channel in any meaningful sense but a psychological warfare platform that should never have been given a licence in the first place. I would rather it had been banned so that all the fascists could bleat that they've been deprived a right to free speech but the fact that it's gone bust is enough reason to celebrate, especially if its creditors also go bankrupt which I sadly doubt. The danger now is either that Lachlan Murdoch will move to fill the vacuum through the already aliiing UK News or that someone like Elon Musk buys the channel. This is why bans are best. If you can quite rightly ban Press TV and Russia Today you can ban GB News.

The air waves are a public resource and given out to broadcasters on license. If the license requires that they broadcast news (even if a bit biased one way or the other) then the license should be cancelled if they are broadcasting what is clearly propaganda. Simple, right? Except, the regulators of those licenses are supporters of the propaganda so that won't happen.

If you're waiting for the British public to 'wake up' then you'll be waiting a very long time.

So you don't mind the ludicrous leftist trash churned out by the BBC and Channel 4?

And as for you calling out 'Islamophobia' ... It's called 'Freedom of Speech' here; you might like to look it up, as you are clearly unfamiliar with it. Of course, you could well be Muslim, in which case I won't be taking your opinion as 'unbiased'.

The idea of GB losing revenue, is music to my ears. Thank you 👍

Is this satire? Did you get someone at J'Accuse to pen this one?

GB news ratings more than exceed those of Sky news. Sky news recently tried (rather to hard) to go "woke". One show specifically on climate change - after all everyone loves watching overpaid "experts" promoting "Mad Ed" Millibands latest circle jerk ideas

Oddly enough I pay for sky and the only news channel I watch on it, is GB news!

Terrible news for you - the advertisements have been getting steadily more household name in recent months! After a weird illiberal boycott by the same multinational elites, who profit directly from cheap labour via mass immigration policies.

Odd that these same multinational corporation s don't want align with the values of the UK proletariat - the very people who want to see a huge reduction (end) to these disastrous policies.

Don’t know what the viewing numbers are ? All I know is I’ve never even put this channel on.

No worries this labour government will write these losses off on behalf of GBN, because labour are so driven to befriending anyone on the far right who would help them defeat Reform, so much is their existential fear of lising out at tghe next election. For me labour losing might be the only route back for the labour party to be returned to those whose grass roots loyalty lay not in some neoliberal sequestration of the right but loyal to its socialist ontology.
