Don DaniEL Posted June 24, 2021 Author Posted June 24, 2021 'And we've only just begun': Andrew Neil celebrates as his weeknight show on GB News attracts 92,000 viewers - 26% more than BBC News channel and three times audience of Sky. Is this sustainable in the weeks and months to come. Quote

Is this sustainable in the weeks and months to come. Probably. Look at the cult of Trump and how his obvious nonsense was swallowed by the masses. We've got a hell of a lot of these types in the UK and the evidence would suggest that regardless of what Johnson and his criminal cabal get up to people think he's a stand up guy doing a great job. Andrew Neil and his fellow 'presenters' are just giving the Gammonati what they want to hear. Quote
Costanza Posted June 25, 2021 Posted June 25, 2021 Apparently Andrew Neil is taking a break over the summer after just 2 weeks of his show on the Men & Motors News channel. That can't be good news for the station. Quote

He's never been fully mainstream, i remember when he broke through and was getting slots on Live at the Apollo around a decade ago. He started making edgy right wing comments on social media and its been going on for years. Many of his peers criticised him for it and any chance of mainstream gigs evaporated. I hadn't seen or heard about him for a while till he piped up in the last 24/48hrs. I suspect he's on the spectrum for some form autism. Quote

Jeff Posted July 13, 2021 Posted July 13, 2021 From his YouTube clips it looks like he's trying to play a character but it's more than likely they're his own views. Quote
cosanostra Posted July 13, 2021 Posted July 13, 2021 We saw him at an Edinburgh festival live and late show years ago and it was absolutely shite. He seemed to think he was funny and continued his set completely oblivious that people hated him and were either ignoring him or having private conversations. He seemed to be in a world of his own. Surprised anyone finds him funny because he genuinely seemed to be learning disabled. It felt like being asked to laugh at mentally disadvantaged person. Very uncomfortable experience. Quote

I'm still following him on twitter to see where he goes next in terms of the crazed/sanctimonious/anti-vax rants... Quote

Regards backing Mings, this is just typical backsliding to avoid abuse themselves from social media/msm. They should tell Mings where to go and I bet that is how they actually feel but woke now always wins. Quote

The basic problem GB News and others have in being strongly 'anti-woke' is that can be equated with being pro-racist. I sense a change with the footballers a key staging post in actually accepting that racism is a real thing that affects people. Maybe informing how the likes of GB News presents things. Quote

The R word is banded about like confetti paper and it's meaning is getting lost amidst emojis and hashtags. It's an ever shifting sand of definitions and labels: questioning why BLM and kneeling on why it should have relevance to sport in this country should not be a view subject to attack by Tyrone Mings or wannabe Wolfie Smiths. Who exactly is intolerant here? Quote

It's an American origin and run movement as is taking the knee before their sporting events in relation to police shootings of blacks. Comparing the ingrained racism in the USA to here or anywhere in wider Europe is totally spurious. Our cops are not even armed ffs. Many are just not happy unless they are showing solidarity, making trouble and complaining which includes blaming everybody but themselves for their predicaments.

I can say I have worked with multiple nationality's and backgrounds in financial services since the mid 90s and never seen it overtly in any workplace in fact quite the reverse. The cultures of these places just don't permit it. If it exists at all in the white collar/professional workplace it's suppresed and hidden. Quote

You have either never read the Mail or are confusing it with the Guardian and got "right wing Tories" confused with "left wing marxists". I read both and somewhere in between lies something resembling the truth. If you read the Mail you would know it is at least as critical of Boris, with far greater effect, than the Guardian. Anyway it was the Mail which bravely identified the murderers of Stephen Laurence all those years ago with a huge front page story and photograph of the perpetrators, guessing rightly that they wouldn't sue. You might say they were pioneers of Black Lives Matter! Edited July 15, 2021 by Francis Albert Quote
