I didn't say what the average Brit thinks - no need for evidence. I did say the bleedin' obvious - which is that the average Brit believes the opposite of left wing views. Don't you agree?

Why not stay with the bleedin' obvious instead of unnecessarily going into the weeds?

Guido appears to have cherry-picked one day when GBN beat BBC/Sky. The Barb figures are monthly totals while the UKPG is talking about weeklies, either of which would flatten out any one-off spikes caused by a particular event/programme/one off guest/etc.

Wind that neck back in. Who said there’s anything wrong with “right wing”?

Re: So much for the views held here
 

Leaving aside that they cherry-picked the stats, it's probably not that surprising if they were to be the most popular. BBC and Sky News are pretty dry and essentially repeat the same segments outside of the morning and evening slots. Out of the relatively small demographic of people who watch rolling news, I think GB News is more likely to have a partisan and engaged audience who are getting more commentary and interesting shows. It's closer to the American style of news channel, with less focus on standard reporting and more emphasis on personalities and entertainment.

It's not how I think news should be done, but you can't argue that they're not doing something different.

I must admit I was wrong on them. I thought there would be room for one right-wing news channel, but I thought it would be TalkTV or whatever it was called, the Murdoch one.

You know exactly what right wing means. As such you’ve still not answered my question and it’s safe to say you’ll keep doing that.

No, I didn't know. I can't read minds. I asked a question and you avoided it by starting off with "here we go", then went on about an unsubstantiated point about the "average Brit".

GB News takes a right-wing stance on issues, and any politicians presenting are right-wing.

Armed with this new knowledge, you can now answer the question.

Or not.

I've no idea if I'm a Right Winger or a Left Winger, what are the characteristics I should look for in order to be assigned a label?

You described yourself as “right wing” in the past. You figure it out.
