The footage used in those title sequences is like a checklist of trigger images to get GB News' core audience foaming at the mouth:

✅ Police in riot gear -- hurrah for law and order!
✅ More bloody immigrants in small boats!
✅ Bloody Sunak!
✅ Oooh yay! The Royal Family! 
✅ Bloody wind farms!
✅ Oooh, more King and Queen! 
✅ Bloody NHS, always complaining they don't get enough money!
✅ The White Cliffs of Dover. White cliffs. White. 
✅ Oh my gawd, it's the Union Flag -- *stands up and salutes at the television*
✅ Oh look, it's an LGBT+ person with a rainbow on their face. Can't get away from it these days, they're always shoving it down your throat!
✅ Bloody unions! Get back to work, you layabouts! 
✅ A ballot box -- because of all that election fraud by bloody immigrants! All bloody Labour's fault! 
✅ A soldier with a big gun... he should be down on the beaches greeting those bloody small boats! 
✅ Immigration officers -- bloody immigrants! 
✅ Maroon passports -- bloody FUMING about that! 

So, yeah... right on brand.

GB News goes off the rails proper with Patrick Christys who is the pure definition of windsock - he just goes with whatever his GB News bosses tells him to be angry at for the day.

So the 3pm start time is when they slowly progress to going into the world of bonkers, and we arrive there proper by 7pm and don't leave there really until 6am the following morning.

Only Britain's Newsroom and The Live Desk. All other shows still use full names.

I’m sure there’s still culture wars nonsense in the mix but you can’t deny they’re attempting to become a more serious channel and today’s changes are part of that.  

Compared to what launched 2 years ago, it’s totally different.

...and then you look at who's hosting: Andrew Pierce and Beverley Turner. Their respective records speak for themselves.

Probably the only broadcaster who’s going to shout about these awards rather than some backroom deal.
