I have never watched GB News so didn't realise they were so bad. Was that the one Andrew Neil set up?

Sounds like every other news service, apart from the content. At least GB news was set up as antidote to the constant stream of "BBC" propaganda.

That is what they purport but they are in a similar vein.
I tend to get my info from all sources and then try to sift through it - so yes even the Guardian which is strange as I am supposed to be right wing - although it seems the latest brand of right whingers call me a liberal leftie - I haven't changed so it's them changing their spots

What are your pronouns?I tend to get my info from all sources and then try to sift through it - so yes even the Guardian which is strange as I am supposed to be right wing - although it seems the latest brand of right whingers call me a liberal leftie - I haven't changed so it's them changing their spots
Don't you mean where are my commas?
Not carrying certain news can also be an agenda.
Terrible things happen over here and are not mentioned by certain news outlets.

Indeed. No mention on the BBC of peer Michelle Mone having her house raided by police for evidence in pandemic PPE scandal.

A long read but worth it
www.theguardian.com
Revealed: the ‘carbon bombs’ set to trigger catastrophic climate breakdown
Exclusive: Oil and gas majors are planning scores of vast projects that threaten to shatter the 1.5C climate goal. If governments do not act, these firms will continue to cash in as the world burns
www.theguardian.com
Why are they blaming the oil and gas companies? They are only fulfilling demand. Britain gets 60% or more of its electricity from gas. If renewables were so amazing we wouldn't need gas. This is why I keep banging on about nuclear!A long read but worth it

There is no "blame" it is stating the intent of them and the consequences

Any source for the 60% figure?
I will try to find one.
If wind and solar are so great why are they planning even more gas fired stations?
UK's gas power plans risk derailing climate targets, thinktank says
Household bills also likely to rise if 17 plants proposed are built, according to CarbonTracker report

Probably because nuclear is too expensive?I will try to find one.

No that was announced before the gas prices went nuts. Rolls Royce are promising £40 per mw/h from their SMRs. And remember they will be commercially run. The cost of under £2 billion per unit brings them into the commercial sector rather than state infrastructure which will always be more efficient. Even Amazon are thinking of buying themProbably because nuclear is too expensive?
