I suspect you know this and are on the wind up but this does appear be shaping up to be a commentary channel given the hosts they've lined up and the noises they're making about what this will be.

No, I know nothing about it only it's a new news channel and Andrew Neil is involved.
just hope it's not the usual one sided lefty drivel.

Not if you follow them online - i often find the Telegraph/Guardian have news stories before the rolling TV news services. Of course they are very selective on which ones they report ! Guess there are lots of Fake News filters to go through these days.

Where do you get your news from btw Mick? I'd change your US ones, as they've led you up the garden path there....

I do not follow any US news outlets because why would I, when I live in the UK?

I've said many times on this board that I get my news from multiple sources, I don't just blindly follow one source every time.

Don't you have to read it before you post it, or do you just cut and paste at random from the Express website, with your eyes closed?
