As the family are struggling to compress , send this painful to compress, send this painful tragedy that has happened to our beautiful daughter and beloved sister , our alien , our hearts sister, our alien, our hearts are broken and we are ovennhelmed by sorrow and grief i Sir Michael Gambon has been remembered as a magnificent trickster and the loveliest of legends following his death at the age of 82, the dublin born star of the stage and screen who won four tv baftas , died won four tv baftas, died peacefully in hospital last night after a bout of pneumonia.

His family say he was a beloved husband and father. A 16 beloved husband and father. A 16 year old boy has been arrested after one of the most photographed trees in the country was cut down overnight. The tree at sycamore gap next to Hadrians Wall and close to northumberland was made famous in the 1991 film. Robin hood. The National Trust has said its shocked and saddened to see the iconic tree cut. Down on tv iconic tree cut. Down on tv onune iconic tree cut. Down on tv online dab radio and the tune in app. This is. Gb news. It app. This is. Gb news. It it didnt take long for the usual suspects to call for this place to be shut down after the airing of an interview on tuesday night in which a guest made sexist remarks about a female journalist. But following female journalist. But following the swiftest possible action from the channel, including the suspension of two of its presenters and an Ongoing Investigation plus a fulsome apology to the journalist involved, media, commentators, politicians and other public figures have been calling for blood. An ad boycott is not enough for them. Ofcom investigated. Actions are not investigated. Actions are not enough for them. Bad headlines enough for them. Bad headlines and blanket negative coverage are not enough for them. They want us gone. Take a listen to sky news and now talktv and times radio presenter adam boulton , speaking on the bbcs boulton, speaking on the Bbcs Newsnight programme yesterday evening. Evening. I have to say i think the complaints have piled up against gb news. I think there is a delicate and important taught broadcast ecology in this country. I think , you know, gb country. I think, you know, gb news is trying to bust that ecology and frankly what ofcom should do is shut it down for a rival broadcaster like adam boulton to call for the closure of this channel is about as surprising as the news of elton johns hair loss and hes not just a rival. Hes a classic member of the london liberal elite, the people who detest gb news so much. And who detest gb news so much. And in that clip that youve just heard, he says the quiet parts out loud. So just think about out loud. So just think about these words. He said, i think theres a delicate and important broadcast ecology in this country. I think gb news is country. I think gb news is trying to bust that ecology. Too trying to bust that ecology. Too right . We are, because our terrible crime is that we want to give you an alternative by the way, all three guests on newsnight yesterday called for gb news to be closed down. And i do hope the Newsnight Programme is not guilty of breaching ofcom rules on impartiality or diverse opinion that would be most unfortunate in the end , trusting unfortunate in the end, trusting someone like adam boulton to protect media plurality is like getting count dracula to protect the nations blood supplies. He the nations blood supplies. He and many others wish to keep establishment media just the way it is. In a woke progressive bubble and he doesnt want any new Media Outlets to threaten his job or that of his mates at the beeb channel 4 or itv. He doesnt want a threat to their dwindling television and radio audiences , and he doesnt want a audiences, and he doesnt want a threat to the prescribed political narrative of spare me the pearl clutching from the likes of boulton, he , like so likes of boulton, he, like so many of this channels perma critics, have a political and professional agenda to see the back of this place. In the end, back of this place. In the end, its business. Gb news is rapidly growing a strong and loyal audience and it threatens these established stars and the Business Model of their newspapers, radio stations and tv channels. But in my view , tv channels. But in my view, theres another darker reason why this scandal has been leveraged by those who wish us ill. They hate you. The general public, with your inconvenient beliefs and values, ones that dont align with theirs, values that dont go down well at cafes in islington. They dont want the great unwashed to air their filthy views on net zero brexit. British history, immigration, Race Relations or any other issue. Race relations or any other issue. Now, apparently radio two issue. Now, apparently radio two have also been banging on about us today. Every paper you can find is talking about us tv networks. Hundreds of hours of the coverage has been blanketed out. Theyre running scared, arent they . As i said last night, free speech comes with responsibility as a Television Network that chose to be ofcom regulated from the very start. Then of course, ofcom have every right to investigate what happened on tuesday in terms of adhenng happened on tuesday in terms of adhering to broadcasting rules. Adhering to broadcasting rules. Accountability is critically important, but calls by authoritarian journalists for this place to be shut down is an effort to silence you. Our effort to silence you. Our thousands of viewers and listeners, millions , if you listeners, millions, if you include digital. Did anyone call include digital. Did anyone call for the bbc to be shut down after abuses like jimmy savile and rolf harris stalked the corridors of tv centre . And what corridors of tv centre . And what about channel 4 or the guardian or the new statesman . Should or the new statesman . Should they be shut down for platforming an openly misogynistic russell brand, who called bedding women an Obstacle Course . Of course not. But dont be fooled by the crocodile tears. Spare me the faux outrage and the pearl clutching from the usual suspect bad actors, weaponising this story to get rid of this place and to shrink the National Conversation down to their own ends. The liberal to their own ends. The liberal elites who have the real power in this country are enjoying this story far more than theyre willing to admit. They want to cancel gb news well, you can cancel gb news well, you can cancel them with your remote control. Now lets get reaction control. Now lets get reaction from my top panel tonight. Daily telegraph columnist Allison Pearson, conservative peer lord bailey, and author and broadcaster amy nicholl turner shaun bailey , your reaction to shaun bailey, your reaction to how the industry is responding to this story . To this story . Well, im disappointed. Well, im disappointed. Well, im disappointed. I was very disappointed in adam boulton, the idea that a mistake that was made like that would close the channel down is bizarre if thats bizarre to me because if thats the case, the bbc would have been 100 times over been closed down 100 times over channel 4. I mean, theyd all be in jail. You know, you cant in jail. You know, you cant make claims over something make those claims over Something Like that. What really like that. But what it really says, it who they are and says, it says who they are and what is. And when what their agenda is. And when he the delicate he talked about the delicate ecosystem, hes talking ecosystem, what hes talking about income and about is their huge income and the that gb is growing the fact that gb news is growing at a rate. At point , at such a rate. At some point, advertisers are to start advertisers are going to start saying to advertising saying to the advertising agencies , why are you not agencies, why are you not putting our products in front of the most people . You know , if the most people . You know, if youre the public youre a member of the public who this, heres the who watches this, heres the heres test. Ask people who heres the test. Ask people who dont watch gb news how much they love the bbc. And ill give you answer. People who you one answer. Ask people who do how much they do watch gb news how much they love news and theyll give love gb news and theyll give you a very, very big answer. What is not only is what ive found is not only is gb a lot listeners gb news have a lot of listeners , they are very loyal. I , they are very, very loyal. I have a friend whos a die hard lefty who watches gb news because she says, i get some argument. She said, i learn what argument. She said, i learn what im arguing, always im arguing, what ive always been arguing against. I have another friend who, quite frankly, move in if he let frankly, hed move in if he let him. But point here is him. But the point here is he believes and understands and heres some of his views echoed in gb news. Do you know what he doesnt anywhere else . I think. Doesnt anywhere else . I think. I think thats a big part of the problem. People having opinions the problem. Veryople having opinions the problem. Very strongrving opinions the problem. Very strong opinions1ions the problem. Very strong opinions about very, very strong opinions about gb news that havent actually watched much gb news so cherry picked clips all put together. Correct can shine quite an inaccurate light on what we actually do here in full. We have people from novara. We have who are who are pretty much a left wing media outlet, completely on with jacob rees mogg, where else would you get that . I think we show a lot of different sides, but that isnt always reflected and thats these thats what leads to these massive opinions that people have of the channel as a whole. Indeed , i wonder, though, indeed, i wonder, though, some would say establishment media does a very good job. The bbc, itv , channel 4, theyve got bbc, itv, channel 4, theyve got millions of viewers and listeners and therefore theyve got no case to answer. What do got no case to answer. What do you think . I think that we will welcome anything that ofcom has to say, because we have nothing to hide and we welcome the regulation. Thats why weve signed up to be a part of ofcom. So ofcom is not to be feared if ofcom treats everybody else , if it treats everybody else, if it treats a gb news in the way it treats every other outlet, then gb news is fine. Like ive said before , all of like ive said before, all of those outlets have transgressed in far bigger ways nobodys in far bigger ways and nobodys called for their shutdown. What youre seeing is peoples youre seeing here is peoples political social agenda to political and social agenda to stop opinions that they cant quite get on board. If you comfortable about youve got to let the British Public speak. All of the British Public and gb news is an impartial important part of spreading light on some of the opinions which id argue are held by the most of the pubuc are held by the most of the public but are not brought into the mainstream. Alison on ofcom has looked at a few moments on gb news since it came on air. Know weve had our collar feltz there have been investigations so perhaps adam boulton is right point this boulton is right to point this out. Out. I first of all, mark, id like to say weve had hundreds of messages from listeners and viewers really saying theyre definitely tuning in at nine tonight because they love the show and they love the channel. So thank you to everyone. Thats amazing. All really amazing. Were all really heartened and thats heartened by that. And thats why were here because were speaking an incredibly loyal speaking to an incredibly loyal audience who look at the Mainstream Media. They look at sky news, where adam boulton presided for many, many years and see increasingly and they see an increasingly woke green agenda that they dont relate to. And what were seeing, i think weve seen today programmes Nate Robinson on radio four saying that gb news polluting the public debate and amy, sean and me you are we polluting . We are speaking polluting . We are speaking honestly and were off and were expressing diverse views, but were also expressing views on subjects that millions of people in this country hold dear. And i think this is an outrage , this think this is an outrage, this attempt to over to history quickly inflate a regrettable incident. But an incident which doesnt even compare to who can remember joe brand on radio four saying why throw a milkshake at nigel farage when battery acid is available . If anyone here said that tonight , that there said that tonight, that there would be Police Outside outside the door. So there is a total double standard. People on gb news. Were treading on eggshells, but there are people , as you obviously commented on the russell brand, weve got people on the Krishnan Guru Murthy on channel 4 news using a foul word, a word about a politician , about a a politician, about a politician. Again if you did that, itd be dreadful. Gb news that, itd be dreadful. Gb news using obscene language. So theres this appalling double standard and its because theres a homogeneous view amongst the other channels on immigration, on net zero, on all manners of things. And the most people in this country dont agree with those views. Lets agree with those views. Lets look at the falling circulations and listenership. Radio four today programme lost a million listeners last year. Why did they lose that . Because people are fed up of smug metropolitan views. However, to just counterbalance that, i mean, i go back to the many millions of people that do watch and listen to the beeb and itv and all the rest if news gets rest of it. If gb news gets itself in hot water, has itself in hot water, which has happened over last two happened over the last two years, amy, are these people not entitled to draw attention to that . Are they entitled to that . Are they not entitled to raise concerns . Of course. And of course. Of course. And theyre welcome to and everybody. Thats why we have a regulator. But. But about bolton . He but what about bolton . Is he not right sort of flag up not right to sort of flag up what thinks is a lapse in what he thinks is a lapse in standards . I think its his opinion. I think probably what happened earlier this week is warranted to have an opinion like that. But i maintain that that incident doesnt represent our channel. But also and also, he went too far. Far. If youre if youre some kind of newsreader, if youre a commentator, of course youre going to have an opinion on Something Like this. Its what drives a viewership. But for him to should to suggest that gb news should go to suggest that gb news should 9 , to suggest that gb news should go , he needs to look back into go, he needs to look back into his and by by past, his past. And by by his past, i mean sky, the past mean the past of sky, the past of bbc. Fund the bbc to the of bbc. We fund the bbc to the tune of £3 billion a year, a yean tune of £3 billion a year, a year, and all we ask for is impartiality. There not always impartial. So why shouldnt they go . And i go back to the point, go . And i go back to the point, if treat gb news the same as if you treat gb news the same as you treat the other outlets you treat all the other outlets were you treat all the other outlets werand briefly, mean, and alison, briefly, i mean, these as commentators are illiberal. Its extraordinary illiberal. Its extraordinary that they call themselves journalists because they want a journalistic cl
