Anyway, to be honest Andy, I'm horrified that you haven't given us your views on this woke outrage:

Am sure 'blackmail' is their standard negotiation scenario.
Being public is not so that might be down to the state of the party.

Mr Amankona proceeded to ask guest panellist Quesha Nicholls, who is of Pakistani heritage, if she thought the comments were racist and she agreed.

“I do,” she replied. “When you group everyone together, based on their skin colour or heritage, then it is,” she said, adding that “a lot” of Ms Braverman’s rhetoric is “racist”.

Sacked/ paid off.

Sacked/ paid off.

Their statement:-

“GB News is and will always be the home of free speech, but free speech – as our editorial charter makes clear – does not mean causing unjustifiable offence, and in this case we feel a line was crossed, for which we apologise to Mrs Braverman who was understandably upset by the comment made about her.”

Translation:

All of the racist Tory bigots we employ are up in arms about this and threatening to walk. Braverman's threatening to sue. We've paid off Amankona and slapped an NDA on him as we have no cohones and can't fill the air if we haven't got the worst ex-Tory MPs possible - will that do?

They claim it’s an attack on freespeech.
When it is clearly just an attack on impartiality.
There is nothing to do with free speech. But idiots will fail to see this.
The impartiality of the press is an important aspect of the UK.
Channels like LBC seem to be able to have presenters with clearly defined political views. But manage to juggle to impartiality aspect by ensuring equal airtime for each view point over the day.
