So here’s a couple of things you might want to chew on. The link I have posted refers to the viewer numbers that GB News filed with Companies House in May 2023. The number they gave was 2.7 million. The OP claimed a growth of 167% based on a 2024 article which also states 7.7 million viewers - these numbers are as claimed by GB News ( but not the formal and legally regulated reports to Companies House). So 2023 2.7million x 167% = 4.506 Million well short of the claimed 7.7 million. I wonder, it now being May 2024, will GB News be updating their report to Companies House?!

It’s a alt-right political grouping within the elected representatives. They’re obviously having a ‘haters tiff’. Nothing at all to do with ‘Democracy’

Of course Trump was lying, his lips were moving.

And yet the UK achieved the negotiated peace with the IRA the Corbyn had always said was the route to peace.

I obviously read the OP, hence my remarks on the use of a % rather than viewer numbers. The link I posted has this to say about viewer numbers: in recent filings to companies house [GB News] revealed it was reaching an average of 2.7 million viewers per month in the year ending May 2023, up 17.8% on the figures from the year before. Which probably goes a long way to explain why GB News is loosing money hand over fist.

Or I could look here for a report based on independent research: https://redfieldandwiltonstrategies.com/who-watches-gb-news/#:~:text=It has seen off its,figures from the year before.

I don’t think one single seat will trouble Labour, and I expect Corbyn would vote with Labour on most issues, with the exception of supporting wars. I also expect his long history of opposition to wars will be a bit of a vote winner, given the backdrop against which this election is taking place.

Oddly we are not told his many viewers or anything about ‘engagement time’. Perhaps it’s a case of 167% of ‘Sweet FA’.

I read the post Jonny, I’ve looked at the polling data and I’ve looked at the last election result. I stand by my view that Labour will not win Corbyn’s seat. Go easy on your ‘antisemite’ short cut key, you’ll wear it out of your not careful.

I doubt Corbyn will split any vote, he’s enjoyed solid support from voters in his constituency. His anti war stance is long standing, you might recall his opposition to the wars in Iraq, voting against those wars and joining the anti war protest marches. Labour should perhaps focus on the seats they can win, I very much doubt Corbyn’s is one of them. https://members.parliament.uk/member/185/electionresult

GB News is loosing money handover fist. This ‘puff piece’ is clearly an attempt to argue against penalties being levied by Ofcom.

Well apart from telling us Feinstein is an award winning film maker, we are told a lot about his views towards Starmer but zero about what his own views are. Seems like ‘a don’t look at me campaign platform’. https://members.parliament.uk/member/4514/electionresult

You’ve noticed nothing of the sort. You’ve dreamed it up. I and many others on this forum have frequently stated Hamas are a terrorist organization, their terrorist attack was an obscenity and their taking/holding hostages is a war crime. So away with you and your disgraceful and baseless accusations.

They are recognizing Palestine. Do you need to have the difference between ‘Palestine’ and ‘Hamas’ explained to you? One is recognized as a nation, the other very explicitly recognized as a terrorist organization.

Spain/Ireland/Norway are not ‘supporting Hamas’.

Jeremy Corbin will not be standing as a Labour endorsed candidate at the election.

The deliberate false equivalence between terrorists, who are guilty of their crimes and must be held accountable, and millions of innocent Palestinians who are not guilt of those crimes and must not be held accountable.

Somebody else who doesn’t know what ‘political correctness’ means.

Yet another meme has shown up: ’Vote Out to Help Out’.

No I don’t ever drink in the daytime, nor do I reserve venomous comments almost entirely for women.

Parliament voted. Not all MPs voted for the war and considerably more Labour MPs voted against than for. One of the most outspoken critics of the war being a Labour MP upon whom you frequently vent a particularly rancid version of your spleen.

What are the Tories offering I wonder: Warm sunlit uplands, just over the horizon? A chance to skip the NHS queues and pay privately if you need medical attention? Tax payers money to be funneled to their chums with nothing in return? Affordable houses for Rwandans in Rwanda? Sewage filled rivers and undrinkable tap water? Windfall profits for energy companies paid for by working people having to borrow money to pay their bills? Police that don’t attend crime scenes? Schools that are falling down? Dangerous prisoners released without review and police told not to make arrests because prisons are over crowded? And of course, it’s always somebody else’s fault.

Mum problems?

It wasn’t Blair’s war, it was a war voted for by the whole of Parliament with the exception of 153 Labour MPs (84 against, 69 abstentions) and 19 Tory MPs (2 against, 17 abstentions).
