'This isn't the BBC': Truss jokes with GB News host over journalistic standards

Liz Truss took a jab at the BBC during the latest Tory leadership hustings in Manchester.

Correcting GB News host Alastair Stewart, Ms Truss joked "this isn't the BBC, you [GB News] actually get your facts right."

The more I see her the more mad she looks

The lunatic thinks she's an stand up comedian whilst the nation grimaces at the dire thought an nutter wants you to choose between heating eating or perhaps even just living...

A politician never smiles? “He/she is too negative and depressing “. A politician cracks a joke? “He/she is a clown and a failed comedian”. Can’t win I guess

Journalism. Keeping a journal with relative information like Time, date, place, sources, names, and facts.
None of these things exist in these "reporters" world's.

There needs to be a law where the public can vote to get the current Govt out of power if they are not fit for purpose within 3 months.. At the moment this govt is not fit for purpose, they have let energy bills to get out of control and not helping the most vulnerable and it's time for a change. What have the energy companies got on this govt where they can't do

Well if that wasn’t a rehearsed set-up then I’d be surprised. Truss isn’t bright enough to think on her feet, she needs a script!

[MrJudgementday]

Wow what vile people seem to make comments on this channel. I bet they are all feeling very smug in their middle class lives looking down on everyone.

[jasonbrennan]

See you later. Luckily we don't graft for you.

[colingarner]

She’s so right, the BBC has gone so far downhill it’s near the crap bottom .

A Temporary PM that won't last the winter if her and party don't get control of the inflation, fuel, food and energy bill rises.

Like a number of journalists who’ve sold their souls to the devil, this one has lost his integrity, as for truss, she never had any.
