Once again, this has all the smell of Fox News about it - they have done the same thing in the US many many times
I remember watching The O'Reilly Factor in it's heyday and Bill O'Reilly (who thankfully is now relegated to the internet and obscure right wing channels) used to cut off people in the middle of a discussion when they didn't follow his narrative or he got bored with their left wing point of view
GB News from the start always said they weren't going to be a British Fox News - they are around 99% British Fox News now in their style and in their pretence of being fair and open to free speech.
They are also Fox News in style, with the self-aggrandizing "Britain's News Channel" - "The People's News Channel" - "Britain's Newsroom" - just look at Fox News calling themselves "America's News Headquarters".
