GB News: a thread so you never have to watch it

[cupid_stunt]

Sky News Press Review last night, there was some piss taking of the idea that Johnson will even turn-up for his first GB News show.

Entertainingly unflattering profile of Calvin Robinson in the Times
Calvin Robinson: the anti-woke cleric too reactionary for GB News - Times (archived)

This bit made me LOL.

“Fame is nothing to be aspired to,” he insists. The only “reward is that you’re able to do good, or you’re able to be a voice for people that don’t have a voice”. This certainly sounds pious, but I only have to glance down at my cup of tea resting on its Calvin Robinson coaster to doubt his sincerity. Later, when I use his bathroom, I discover that Robinson has a painting of himself hanging over his toilet — a revelation that provokes the strange thought that whenever he relieves himself, he does so gazing upon his own face. This is hardly a symptom of saintly humility.

hmm how long before farrage leaves due to bojo stealing his thunder

In a startling development, John Cleese appears to think Johnson should have been cancelled.

X/Twitter should suspend his account too in respect of the vile racist shite he has posted, but they won't. I've reported 2 of his posts and had zero response.

Mate, these days they will literally pay him for them

From the John Bye x-twitter account some onscreen banners

From the same episode... Someone at GB News is clearly having fun with these.

 

[Karl Masks]

How the fuck does he still have a job? He's an utter maniac! He'll be banging on about lockdown/vaccines decades from now

 

[Lurdan]

He's not a fan of his new colleague Boris - this was from his show on Saturday night after the announcement of Boris being hired.
(Rather fittingly, the auto-generated subtitles are also a bit eccentric).

I can't watch his repeats on BBC2 now - his speculations about the stone age beaker people have been contaminated forever by his obsession with lockdown.

Whoa, he's a nutter. How are they allowed to put this on telly without comment?

He's right about Johnson with some of the things he said there though very perceptive. Shame about the frothing though.

 

[Rob Ray]

As with so many of his ilk he mixes real phenomena with absolutely bonkers ideas. I'm still yet to see the "enthusiasm" for lockdown the conspiraloon lot bang on about, let alone the use of it to permanently enslave The People (and we're still waiting for that vaccine apocalypse of course). I've seen a whole bunch of anti-protest and anti-strike laws which they don't seem to care at all about though.

the lockdowns- all the things the state did- were reluctant, delayed (maccy dees and tescos closed their doors before the first lockdown happened) , feeble and with bad grace- yet because for the first time since they were eating from the kids menu someone told them 'no, you must do this which you don't want to do, because of public health'- tyranny. 1984. That film with Jude Law and the gun-kata.

hmm can see this being a clear out of GB news

you know bojo going to turn it all into GBoris Johnson news I expect scenes

God help any cunt that takes this seriously.

OFCOM doesn't know what to do with GBNews. If it had any balls, it would shut it down.

 

[moochedit]

OFCOM doesn't know what to do with GBNews. If it had any balls, it would shut it down.

Agree however it would probably be followed by "Woke OFCOM" headlines in the right wing press and the Tories reacting to that by promising to "reform" OFCOM

Is it actually in his toilet though? Like giving you his nose as a place to aim at for avoiding splashback?

"Beaker People go home!", is what he says in his programme these days

Gatica. He was in Gatica.

 

[Cerv]

Gattaca
it's only the letters of the 4 DNA bases. No I.
An absolute classic.

Equilibrium was the terrible film with the gun-kata.
And Christian Bale, who is no Jude Law.

Perhaps the smarter thing would be to wait another 12 months until they've racked up more upheld complaints, and a Labour government comes in with no interest in their survival.

Fucking hell, it's like a joke without a punchline.
