I made the same point about andrew neil talking in bad faith to the extinction rebellion guy and got a slurry or comments attacking the guys character and calling me a virtue signaller. The reality is this channel is more like fox news and the tabloids which has some use in countering the wokies but very little in raising the standard of debate, education and critical thought in the country. Unfortunately GBNews have realised that they need to generate headlines to keep people coming to the channel which is why they keep triggering their guests with bad faith takes. GBNews could have gone down the road of long form discussions between opposing intellectuals which there is an appetite for with many discussions in multi million views.. I hope more intellectuals are added to the ranks, benjamin and dan with their tabloid tier takes permanently sacked, Andrew Neil ups his game or Neil Oliver jumps ship before they destroy his credibility through association

I thought GB news was meant to be an alternative news source that gave fair space to opinions that aren’t mainstream. This was the most unprofessional interview I’ve seen in a long time. Whoever that BB guy is, he doesn’t belong in journalism.

[@matthewball2344]

I do wish the left would stop making me like Galloway.

[@proselytizingorthodoxpente8304]

You do know that Galloway is far left, yes? He's a socialist who idolized Fidel Castro and described the collapse of the soviet empire as the biggest catastrophe in his life. Really, you can't get more left than Galloway.

[@matthewball2344]

@@proselytizingorthodoxpente8304 that just underlines my point. The people like Butthurt make him look sensible and level headed so what does that say about them!

[@proselytizingorthodoxpente8304]

@@matthewball2344 Sure, some things Butterworth says are nuts. But what exactly do you disagree with him on here? Are you going to pretend Galloway is right? That its an 'Islamophobic assumption' to say his core vote don't like gays? Just because Butterworth claims a man becomes a woman, if he says he's a woman?

[@matthewball2344]

@@proselytizingorthodoxpente8304 Butthurt is very good at disparaging remarks about other people voters but try getting him to accept that labour voters are all antisemitic, he is a walking samctomist. If Galloway is the dangerous leftist that Butthurt was trying to paint him it's a good idea to let him show it just like was done with Nick Griffin.

[@proselytizingorthodoxpente8304]

@@matthewball2344 Galloway is considerably worse than Butterworth. As for antisemitism, I think we all know why that came to be a problem in the labour party. Its what Galloway and the far left have been promoting for years. And the by-election was another good example of how they do it.

[@johnjordan1948]

I'm sick of hearing them say they are a broad church. They are not. They invited him on just to slag him off for thinking differently to them. They slandered him with stuff they know not to be true already. I'd rather listen to people that I disagree with that tells the truth, than someone I do that doesn't. Dan and Ben are the later.

Nobody wants to see Lady Buttersworth. She was extremely disrespectful during this appearance. GB News has no reason to allow him on.

I really am not interested in this obnoxious style of interviewing. If George is talking bollocks and the interviewer knows what he talking about, George's contradictory views would be exposed easily enough.

[@motiharibrigade150]

Cowardly abusive badgering failed attempt at “gotcha” journalism. The interviewer was not the slightest bit interested in allowing the guest to express answers to the questions asked. Indeed he appeared afraid of the answers and tried to prevent the guest’s responses. Galloway is too gifted an orator to fall prey to such juvenile wokish traps. Was hoping for better from GBNews. Beyond disappointed - embarrassed for GBNews. Hope to hear more from George Galloway in the future, and much less of this foolish interviewer and such anti-debates.

[@marthamay4506]

Benjamin was really out of line here but I have no idea why everyone is saying it’s like the BBC and having a go at Dan. Benjamin was a guest because the point is you have to have a panel that have different views. I have never seen the presenters act like this. Maybe Dan could have pushed a bit more for him to stop but the guy wouldn’t stop. GB news has to be unbiased to a point because of ofcom and you can’t expect it constantly to be one view point. The BBC does not talk about cancel culture, woke politics, give air time to virtually any conservative views, allow views like Dan who does not agree with lockdowns or masks. Talk about lockdown protests. I like the way GB news has different views and that is freedom of speech. No one ever said it would be far right like Fox News. Benjamin needs talking too and told he needs to show some respect. This is new to Dan and he’s doing pretty well I think, he will learn how to deal with these issues more as time goes on. One mistake and people are so judgement, Don’t be as bad as the woke brigade. We need to be better than that.

Come on GB News! Get it right! Butterworth didn't "slam" Galloway - he provoked and smugly harangued him like a sulky school boy.

Expected so much better from GN News. Pathetic Benjamin Butterworth ‘performance’ . Sadly GB News are on the wrong track if this is the quality of petty interviewer they allow. The usual journalistic loaded questions that show the prejudiced views of the interviewer - if he wanted to make a statement of his over-generalised views on Iranians or Muslims or others then don’t waste time inviting guests. George Galloway, agree or disagree with him on whatever issue, one thing he does do is cut through the journalist BS and gets to the crux of issues. Andrew Neil, please rethink the quality of some of your team. Hoping for better from GB News.

BB made himself look foolish. He needs to be given guidance in how to conduct an interview. I also note that his mike was about 4dB louder than George Galloway's. George Galloway is always worth hearing - one of the few politicians with a mind of his own - but was repeatedly drowned out by BB trying to talk over him.

[@Keglanek]

Butterworth acts like hes in a year 10 debate in school where he knows he can act like a seft entitled brat because he knows the teachers will protect him. His mannerisms and line of 'gotcha' questions shows this, all because Galloway is being accused of splitting the labour vote and Butterworth is salty about it.
