“Sharia law is operational in large swathes of the United Kingdom.” The BBC is “erasing Christianity”, to be replaced with Islam or a “secular dystopia”. Meanwhile the archbishop of Canterbury is apparently doing “more to promote Islam than Christianity”.
Oh dear. Welcome to the unhinged alternative reality configured on GB News, where conspiracy theories about the Muslim takeover of British institutions and society are not simply fringe comments whispered in deep, dark corners of the internet (the archbishop prioritising Islam over Christianity is, after all, quite a feat), but primetime television fare. This week’s report by the Muslim Council of Britain’s Centre for Media Monitoring paints a picture of dangerous narratives being systematically mainstreamed by what is supposedly a regulated broadcaster.

Plenty of evidence of this to my eyesIs it?

Every year they claim thisI briefly flicked onto the news channels during the snooker interval, and heard Mark Dolan claiming, "You're barely allowed to call it Christmas anymore".

Betteridge's law holds as everBBC2 Daily Politics has out-GB News'd GB News this lunchtime:
Strap line says "Can we learn from the Argentianian President?"
Probably they just watch it for longer as they're too stupid to operate the remote control to change channels.Am I correct in thinking the monthly share means how much time viewers spend watching it? Implying that the GB news audience is much smaller but more dedicated?
Tsk you can prove anything with numbersAt last the BARB Nov. figures are on their website, and I am a tab confused.

As you can see GB News reached well under half the number of households compared to Sky News, yet they are listed as having a monthly share of 0.02% more, which doesn't make sense to me.![]()
