This outlines why the new channel should either be an fully focussed international news channel, OR a fully focussed domestic UK news channel. Trying to do both will result in the fudge we have now during joint simulcasts that pleases no one.
During 2024 there will also be a General Election in the UK, and a Presidential election in the US, with the build up to the US election throughout the year with the primaries etc.
Convention says that the UK GE will be in May or June, but if Rushi Sunak wants to run down the clock on the current Parliamentary term, he could call the UK General Election in late autumn 2024, so we'll have the UK GE campaign and the US Presidential campaign happening concurrently. How on earth will this new channel manage to cover that and keep everyone happy???
