I had to look up Marshall and man, what a journey he's been on. His Twitter feed reeks of conspiracism but he started out as Charles Kennedy's staffer. His son is an alt right fan of Andy Ngo as well (he who wrote one of the many Londonistan articles back in the day from a nice bar in Shoreditch). Were they always crazy or did something happen

Can that Wikipedia article all be true? The Orange Book casts a long shadow!

not the most extreme though. David Icke - Wikipedia
Looks as though David Icke is too extreme even for GB News (or Talk TV, notwithstanding the Talk TV UFO programmes late on Sunday nights).

The biggest spiv pseudo journalist at Saturdays refugee protest was some oleaginous douche from GB news wearing a cheap covert coat covered in dog hair
He went down the protest line asking for interviews and got chinned off by most people who realised he was a wrong un

We had that in Bury St Edmunds in 1970 when the Odeon showed Myra Breckinbridge. The more things change the more they stay the same.(R.I.P. Raquel!)

I've always had my doubts about RB. Always. Never quite believed the schtick. Why answer every question with thirty words when five would do? Why dance around the subject when directness would do? Why elude or evade when you're trying to convince me that only you are talking sense, not politicians or 'those in power'?
The moment that I knew he was a plonker was the appearance in front of a parliamentary committee on drugs. He tried the thesaurus routine and nobody bought it. When confronted by actually smart, genuinely inquisitive minds, he came across as a student who had skimmed through the textbook and was hoping nobody would spot the pilfered direct quotes. It was embarrassing.
He's definitely jumped into the murky waters of the 'terminally online'. I can see him as the next Icke or Coast Guy. Stuck in a conspiracy box of his own creation, throat sore from talking, forcing himself to make one more video despite the strain in his eyes, perhaps wishing that he'd stuck to the mainstream, before firing up the same old boilerplate for an audience he can't see, applause he can't hear.

It seems he's swapped one form of addiction for another - this time its the adulation and attention that's his thing.

...has prompted me to ring Ofcom. This is beyond the fucking pale
EDIT, i don't have the broadcast date and time (other than what's on screen) which Ofcom need. Fuck GBN. You can't even report covid misinfo to twitter thanks to the billionaire loon in charge

Looks like it's around this point in yesterday's broadcast
Haven't watched it all - what were you going to complain about? Seems to me the interviewer gets a buzz out of a "verbal" and isn't that concerned about accuracy.
If you ask me this is phase two of the Sputnik/RT playbook.
Get the viewers so confused they think checking the facts is on a par with supporting Millwall, on Man United or whatever.
Of course people agreeing to go on just encourages GB News. Do they pay for publicly humiliating people?

The spread of covid lies and misinformation
EDIT complaint made, aren't I the big I am.
Worth a try. I think this outfit needs shutting down at this point, as amusing as it is seeing some of their idiocy from time to time. This wave of anti lockdown crap now spread by Oakeshott is not on

Any specific lie in particular?
(Do you mean the Sue Gray one?)
Re: the whole deceitful construction of an alternative narrative, it might be harder to make that stick with a regulator.

I think everything Dolan claimed in that twitter segment I linked has been proven false. The claim Covid isn't a serious illness, that Sweden did well, that lockdown is only ever a bad thing and not a necessary evil (caused in part by the lack of action ahead of time and the dithering that made them last longer).
