Why aren't you honest about it not being a free speech issue at all, but it's only the speech that you agree with, is the only version you see as legitimate. No one calls for more people to shut up or be cancelled than you do.

You disagreed with Penny the other day, so called for her to be sacked.

The Viewers
did not like his joke


GBnewsHD CEO
acted fast

So...they cancelled him for using his free speech?

I don't watch it, but just don't pretend that anyone aligned with the GB news mantras is remotely all about free speech, when they want to cancel everyone all the time.

If you like to see protestors being beaten and moved for exercising their free speech, or GB hosts being cancelled for taking the knee, then you aren't a protector of free speech.

I'm sorry for your loss John Cleese.

Only people that have been to the Arkham Asylum work at GBNews.

I'm a minority I know but I don't really care much for John Cleese.
Some of GB news is okay but not in the evenings.

There used to be a time when GB News was utter cr**. And Talk Radio - now Talk TV - was superior. But since it switched from radio - to TV and radio, Talk TV has become 85% unwatchable.

I see they've ditched the News Hour which had only one viewer - the presenter's mother. And that's no joke. Look at the 'viewing' figures.

But GB News has at least three sitting MPs on there, raking in their MP's salary and GB News presenters money. That really annoys me, MPs also hosting TV shows on a regular basis. And don't get me started on David Lammy.

Talk TV and GB News are basically the same now. Utter divel.

Well yes, I have to admit I can't disagree with you there.

Indeed GB news has that awful Esther McVey MP on.
Yes, you've convinced me.

He got sacked because some people didn't like his joke? Doesn't that sound like censorship? Because to me it does.

Pathetic Femi on Twitter has called it a
Hard Right channel.
Having a go at John Cleese, in today Guardian

If that was true, the Left Wingers
would never go on it.



Debated on Headliners
the one hour,
Newspaper review.

"Talk TV and GB News are basically the same now."


Rubbish
Talk TV is nothing like the more stable GBnewsHD
It does not do a proper Morning show like GBnewsHD does.
Eamonn Holmes has brought new viewers to GBnewsHD



Talk TV is limited to whoever the presenter is.

Isn't that even worse to sack someone because they have a different political belief to the bosses on one issue?

Sure Slim

John is in Final years

His new show on GBnewsHD could be fun
he has good connections.

Not a Sitcom,

So do you agree, that it's impossible for this man to have been cancelled by the beeb after giving him 2 seasons of terrible TV?
