1 - GB News and TalkTV goes.
2 - OFCOM goes.
By the way, I'm all for news channels with a centre-left/left-wing outlook. So by that instance I think we should be rid of OFCOM.
Did I say banned? No I didn't. Please stop putting words into people's comments which aren't there - We need proper regulation of ALL news/opinion channels on British television, left, right and centre, ALL - it is just GB News and Talk TV seem to stick out like a sore thumb these days.

Ofcom - set up by a Labour government - is a legal body that is obliged to work to judicial standards of evidence and consistency. The fact it doesn't bend to the latest fashion or partisan viewpoint is a GOOD thing. It's designed that way.
The rules are that same as they've always been. Rules apply to all, equally not just those who you don't like
None of what you say is true. You're even Inconsistent in you're own argument. Maybe you are a victim of misinformation from twitter extremists I don't know
I am for a tighter regulator for ALL sides - left, right and centre - instead of the lighter touch regulation we seem to have with OFCOM these days - my opinion, you may disagree, that's your right, I have mine too.
