I would be interested to hear why he left though. I would imagine given he was effectively leading the channel's set-up he had a significant say in the editorial line until he, reportedly, fell out over that direction with the other senior people there.
Neil himself was promoting this channel as an antidote to the 'woke' media and had a segment called 'Woke Watch' so I'll be interested to hear where he
intended the channel to go.

They're employing him to perform a task he is good at. Personally, I think he should have stayed the BBC in the first place.
