GB News (New British News Network)

I believe in free speech but I find it ironic that a network that is unlikely to give airtime to views they don't like is painting itself as free speeches champion.

case in point. footballers choosing to kneel before a game, they're exercising free speech. those who choose to boo them also exercising free speech. People on the right too often use free speech as if it was a protection against their views being criticised. People on the left too often treat opinions they disagree with as personal attacks.

A prerequisite for intelligent constructive debate is each side accepting the other will say things they find objectionable and they need to address the other sides points rather than complaining that they shouldn't be allowed to make them.

Have you read the Anarchist's Handbook?      Basically, when you run out of logic, you attack the messenger to discredit them - and that in turn, discredits anything they might be saying.      That's the whole tactic of 'cancel culture' and 'wokeism'.    It's all about screaming and shouting the loudest and stopping anyone with opposing views from speaking.   Only one message allowed.

The aim is to impose a left-wing social and political hegemony on the world, controlled by a handful of oligarchies.

The ones that MP Jeremy Corbyn also talked about during the 1970's,1980's, 1990's, 2000's...

These are also the kinds of arguments made by the likes of Hitler before they create their own hegomonies and have all their opponents silenced

it's intriguing to know the ' left-wing  oligarchs you are referring o ?

Nexus, is it too much to ask of you to allow over 50% of the population to have a news network that represents their way of life?

Is it unreasonable to give over 50% of the population access to news content and journalistic reporting that reflects their interests and values? 

Is it such an egregious step to welcome a news network that reflects the views of over 80% of the population (polling has found that over 80% of Brits are against cancel culture and identity politics).

We are supposed to be living in a democracy where there is a plurality of thoughts, beliefs and ideas. Not a political hegemony where speech is controlled and approved by a political elite and monitored and policed by political mobs.

What, one to replace the one that already exists?  Bullingdon boys, old Etonians, Rees Smaug?

That sort of hegemony?
