Russia Today, a 'news' channel. It's about as unbiased as GB News. If you ban RT, then channels like GB News are also in danger. Best not to ban any but realise where they are coming from and take it with a pinch of salt. Anyway they also do some cracking sitcoms. 'Yuri and the Gulag' is hilarious

OFCOM has previously stopped CGTN from broadcasting in the UK - they're the Chinese equivalent of RT

Re: Liz Truss: “Ofcom is looking into RT”
And this what the head of RT said this morning - hardly independent

Margarita Simonyan, the newly sanctioned head of RT, wrote in a tweet: “This is a standard parade rehearsal,” she wrote. “Except this year we have decided to hold the parade in Kyiv.”
