Sunak's GB News Spot To Be Investigated By Watchdog

Ofcom said the so-called People's Forum garnered around 500 complaints and it was investigating the show under its impartiality rules. The rules state that broadcasters must present news shows with due accuracy and impartiality. Ofcom pointed to provisions in the broadcasting code requiring outlets to ensure an “appropriately wide range of significant views must be included and given due weight in such programmes”.

The show, People’s Forum: The Prime Minister, was broadcast on GB News last Monday and saw Mr Sunak quizzed over the NHS, his Rwanda asylum plan and why right-wing voters should back the Tories.
