You have nothing to lose but your marbles Image Not sure whose palace they’re going to storm. Maybe there’s a clue in this tweet Neil liked today claiming Obama is a gay Manchurian Candidate brainwashed in Moscow to bring Communism to America, kill Trump and end American PTA meetings for his, um, globalist masters.

Well @GBNEWS presenter kicked off Twitter. Wonder what he did? Image Well @brenkelly30 knows. Patrick Christys has been making violent threats. And there was me thinking than on the Elon Musk version of this site you can get away with anything. Image

Tinfoil News. @GBNEWS presenter and anti-vax conspiracy influencer @beverleyturner is urging us to watch a deranged video by Richard Hall, the man currently being sued by the bereaved families of Manchester stadium bombing for saying it was a hoax and their kids didn’t really die dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

Synchronicity. Read @EdwardGLuce on the far right weirdness of the John Birch Society - reviewing @MattDallek’s new book. Then read this @TimesofIsrael piece by @MattDallek on how the @ADL infiltrated the Birchers to expose their conspiracist racism. timesofisrael.com/how-an-adl-spy…

On his most recent @GBNEWS show Neil Oliver railed against journalists who have the temerity to investigate links between conspiracy theorists and the far right. Image This weekend he’s in Bath hosting speakers who believe Satanists & Jewish bankers run the world, control our King & PM, harvest organs, caused 9/11 & war in Ukraine & tricked the people of Birmingham into worshiping Baal. And a woman who thinks the vaccine has literal tentacles.

So unlucky. Another speaker @GBNEWS presenter @thecoastguy is hosting at the anti-vax convention @ApexHotels in Bath turns out to believe Jewish bankers secretly control the world and the pandemic was a hoax. Think there’s a @vizcomic cartoon in this. ImageImageImageImage And another! What bad luck. 9/11 … blood moon … Rothschilds. Makes you think. Image

Seems the right judgement. I’ve read materials associated with this case and the false allegations were so extreme and disgusting that the judge declined to repeat them in the summary. The magazine involved in this case publishes whackadoodle nonsense about the Rothschilds and Ukraine and “colour programming”. As a connoisseur of whackadoodle nonsense I award this a gold star.

Just wondering why @GBNEWS doesn’t employ a science editor to do the public service of explaining basic questions to its presenters and its audience. Still, those 👍👍 should amuse the anti-vaxxers, if not those bereaved by the virus. Image This is a good illustration of the bind in which this weird channel finds itself. @Ofcom is advising @GBNEWS to clean up its act. But it has cultivated an audience of anti-vax conspiracy theorists who respond with fury if they don’t get the dirty stuff they like.

A few hours pass, and another @GBNEWS presenter is mixed up with antisemitic conspiracy theories. Hello anti-vax activist & whacky WEF conspiracy fan @beverleyturner urging us to defend a notorious purveyor of covid misinfo charged in Germany with trivialsing the Holocaust. Image Bev’s true hero has said Covid was a “fake”, the vaccine will “decimate” the world’s population and Jews have a unique talent for evil. Bev thinks he is “never anything other than factual”. His wiki page has a whole section on his antisemitism en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sucharit_… Image

Ach, @GBNEWS presenter Neil Oliver is so unlucky. Who could predict that MCing for "a pseudo-medical organisation dedicated to spreading misinformation about COVID19 vaccines & promoting fake COVID-19 treatments" could lead to him promoting antisemitic conspiracy theorists AGAIN? Image So who is KSCUBKEE? Just a lady who posts fake Rothschild quotes and 9/11 covid conspiracy theories. ImageImageImageImage

More commentators from the @GBNEWS Algonquin round table have entered the chat. I wonder if anyone who isn't an anti-vax crackpot full of Rothschild conspiracy theories will defend @thecoastguy? Do the Rothschilds own Klaus Schwab, they ask? What sort of person would ask that? Image Fake Rothschild quotes about fomenting war in Ukraine. Pure Protocols of the Elders of Zion. ImageImage

Amazingly this image is still there. Replies switched off. You'd think someone at @GBNEWS would have had a word and persuaded him to take it down. Image But instead, Neil Oliver is just tweeting our more anti-vax and conspiracist nonsense from his comrades in this grim subculture. Like this. Who is Mark Attwood? Image

Just @GBNEWS presenter Neil Oliver tweeting an image that seems to make mockery of the Holocaust by depicting Bill Gates as a Nazi experimenter with a swastika and IG Farben logo, which is presumably a reference to slave labour in Auschwitz. Image Think how recently something like this would cause national outrage. Now it's just a normal Friday night on Twitter for a host with show on @Ofcom regulated television.

Re: David Starkey’s remarks on @GBNEWS about the PM not being “grounded” in British culture. Here’s @Beverlyturner’s explanation of why she dealt with so poorly. She shares his suspicions. Image Not because she is a racist. But because she is a whacky conspiracy theorist who thinks the PM is following secret orders from Klaus Schwab, the WEF, Davos, and that aspects of vaccine policy were not about saving lives but testing their secret plans to enslave us. Image

More conspiracist falsehoods on @GBNEWS – @thecoastguy declaring as fact the discredited Kremlin line that the US government had a network of bioweapons labs in Ukraine. This is materially misleading. Incredible that it was broadcast on British TV. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukraine_b… Image He then says Sudan also contains similar bioweapons labs. This is also false. He is thinking, I assume, of Sudan’s National Public Health Laboratory. (Neil Oliver knows so much about Sudan he calls it “Suzanne” twice during this programme.) Image

Protocols-level whackadoodle from Glenn Beck here. What he actually said, which @GBNEWS doesn’t quote, presumably because it makes him and @thecoastguy sound totally deranged, is this … Image “The Deep State and the World Economic Forum, which you are very well aware of is alive and very well and destroying about 70% of the American population and calling them terrorists.” Crank recognises crank, I guess.

Such a great culture wars metaphor here - bunch of oddballs turn up to shout at something that isn't there. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan… And if you're curious about the tiny group present - apart from 3 @GBNEWS presenters and a member of Britain First who - according to @thetimes - once hung a banner over the Blackwall tunnel that read: "It's okay to preserve white nations" ... these are the featured speakers.

Why are @GBNEWS presenters @LozzaFox @MartinDaubney & @calvinrobinson itchy about suggestions they are connected with the far right? Here they are this morning on a tiny demo standing firm with one of its most notorious figures, recently arrested after sieg-heiling on the street Not the first time they’ve hung out with him. He’s Britain First and former BNP member Brian Stovell. Once got a nice write up in @thetimes thetimes.co.uk/article/far-ri…

You might be tempted to say go anti-woke, go broke, but profitability is less important to the backers of @GBNEWS than ideological aims. And hiring sitting MPs is more of a cost-cutting measure than an extravagance - their rates aren't high. theguardian.com/media/2023/mar… The questions for MPs who work for the channel are, I think - are you helping to clean up the channel? Or are you legitimising the poor and misleading journalism of the conspiracy theorists & activist cranks with whom you share the screen?

As @Telegraph reminds us, this is only the first case against @GBNEWS and Mark Steyn. The second involves an October 2022 programme in which he nodded through a series of bizarre falsehoods produced his guest Naomi Wolf. telegraph.co.uk/business/2023/… On this programme she falsely claimed that covid vaccines are "bioweapons" that are "sterilising people" and "poisoning breast milk" and causing "mass murder". They were part of a plot by "bad actors" to "destroy civil society". theguardian.com/media/2022/oct…
