GB News

I have been puzzling for some time regarding the ideology, if any, of GB News. Pseudo-nationalist, obviously largely “controlled opposition”, willing to help move the “Overton Window” re immigration, the failed “multicultural society”, immigration and migration invasion etc, yet painfully pro-Jewish lobby and pro-Israel.

GB News even allows the mendacious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA” Jew-Zionists to spout their lies unopposed, as does the “does anyone actually watch?” Talk TV (now online only). Why? (especially since “Slitherman”, the chief spokesperson for the “CAA”, was exposed several years ago, in open court, as a serial online troll and harasser of others, mainly women).

So I was interested to see the following tweet from Matt Goodwin, former academic, who is now more or less a Reform UK propagandist and, more recently, also a GB News presenter and commentator:

That person, Paul Marshall, is not only extremely wealthy (apparently, £875M as of last year, so probably far more by now), but also the mainstay of GB News.

In the financial year 2022-2023, GB News reported a loss of no less than £42M, and would certainly have disappeared had not Paul Marshall invested £41M at that point.

So from where comes the pro-Jewish, pro-Israel bias of GB News? I happened to notice that the said Marshall is married to a Jewish woman [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Marshall_(investor)#Personal_life], of which Wikipedia says more on its page about Paul Marshall’s son, one Winston Marshall, of whom I had not previously heard, but who is apparently a successful folk-rock banjoist and guitarist: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winston_Marshall#Early_life_and_family.

It is impossible to say for sure, on facts known, whether that personal connection has influenced the editorial line of GB News; I should say, though, that it is more likely than not.

The above reminds me that several other UK-based news outlets are owned by Jewish, pro-Jewish or pro-Israel families or groups. LBC radio is another such: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Media_%26_Entertainment; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Media_%26_Entertainment#History; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashley_Tabor-King.

Incidentally, the “does anyone actually watch?” Talk TV is owned, ultimately, by the aged pro-Israel cuckold, Rupert Murdoch.

I would rather pay the expenses of the actual dog than those of the millions of metaphorical dogs.

A similar picture to all other recent opinion polls, though the Cons here are higher (the last opinion poll, from a different polling org, had them on only 16%).

Projection: Reform 345 MPs, and a substantial majority; Labour 131 MPs, LibDems 56, Cons 53, SNP 36 [etc]. https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.

On that basis, the Cons would be 4th-largest party in the Commons. Other recent predictions have had them as 5th-largest. Amazing, for a party which, only a year or two ago, was still at times spoken of as “the natural party of government” in the UK.

828 of the bastards. In a single day— and it is not yet even summer, when the Channel is sometimes as calm as a millpond…

Stop them.

The fact is, Britain was on the wrong side…or should have at least declared neutrality.

Yes. I noticed the anti-white bias in a BBC News report by one Sarah Smith this evening.

Ah, just saw Wikipedia about her. Turns out she is the daughter of the now-deceased Labour Party leader John Smith, who might have and probably would have become PM had he lived longer [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Smith_(news_reporter)#Family].

Fact is, I was right, when halfwit Nelson Mandela took over in South Africa: I said then that South Africa would go the way of the rest of black-ruled sub-Saharan Africa (corrupt, violent, shambolic), but that SA would take longer to fall into the swamp because the proportion of whites in the population was far higher than had been the case in any other African country. At one time, it was as high as 22%; at present somewhere around 5%, probably:

Statistics South Africa asks people to describe themselves in the census in terms of five racial population groups.[167] The 2022 census figures for these groups were: Black African at 81%, Coloured at 8.2%, White at 7.3%, Indian or Asian at 2.7%, and Other/Unspecified at 0.5%.[9] The first census in 1911 showed that whites made up 22% of the population; this had declined to 16% by 1980.”

[Wikipedia]. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Africa#Demographics.

Proportion of whites in SA population: 7.3% in 2022. Now? Maybe 5%, maybe still 6%, but declining, as Europeans find living in a black-ruled (though not run) country impossible.

As witness the bleating of Guardian scribblers.

Yes, Goodwin— with you on all that, but don’t forget to mention that the Jew/Zionist/Israel lobby is the major anti-free-speech bloc in the UK, and works 24/7 to repress free speech and freedom of expression.

(Ha, some hope, looking at GB News and its ownership. Goodwin knows which side his bread is buttered on…).

I suppose I am wavering between dark red and light blue on that poll.

If Britain can find its way to real social nationalism, we could even go to dark blue, but at present, the dark red is certainly more likely.

She is as thick as two short planks.
