To be honest, it would be an issue even without the merged channel in getting the balance between coverage of the US and UK elections.
Hopefully the UK GE will be in May or June, but Sunak could delay it until October or November.
Then you'll get UK viewers tuning in during the evening for example, expecting a round up of UK election campaign news, but instead will get US election news & discussion on The Context.
