I have eaten meat nearly every 50 years almost every day. I haven’t had any issues yet and if I do I would be too old to care. Death comes to everyone FFS.
I couldn’t care about Brexit, I didn’t and haven’t done for years. GB News let’s people talk to each other and respecting views, BBC like to shut down by discussions by talking over them or pulling the satellite feed like CNN do.
I watch numerous news outlets on Youtube I like Newsmax because they show full interviews not snippets to fit an agenda. They do debunk a lot CNN and ABC new. I only watch for Jessie Waters, Gutfield and the opinion talking head Tucker Carlson. I bumped in to him a Greatful Dead show in the 80s with a bunch of mates and my uncle. Tucker still has the same drawl and smile. |

Eamon Holmes has an audience and may be a nice person and a good tipper. He can afford to be. However my point is I don't think that he is suited to GB News, who are supposed to be an alternative, edgy non-mainstream news channel, and Eamon is very much part of that mainstream, daytime tv media. I know people will argue against this for the sake of arguing, but it would be like playing Cliff Richard on 6 music, he really doesn't belong there and GB news could spend their limited resources in a much better way.
I like a good argument as much as anyone else, and possibly more so, but I found the constant ranting on GB news very tiresome after the first week.
I think some light entertainment mixed in is a good idea. 
He can't be worse than Dan Wooten and Rebecca Reid. I agree with Honey on every point here. Just because he can afford to be a good tipper don't mean he has to. Working in hospitality is exciting but very hard work, you see all sorts of people and especially the famous. I left hospitality because I had good offer for the clubs, pubs I owned or had shares in. I now work as a sales rep for alcoholic drinks and a delivery man for restaurant's, pubs, off licences and private households.
I quite like Eammonn warm, Irish charm. I have no idea what 6 Music is where I live it's either LBC on the digital radio or static on the analogue, it's all down to my location  . In the truck it's only my CD's and subwoofer.
We have no idea what Eammonn slot will be and what job he will have, I hate assumptions. Fox News has Greg Gutfield and it's number 1.
I agree Dan Wooten is awful, just ranting and just making up things to support his own views ("meat is good for you"). He complained about the bbc documentary "The prince and the press" in which he appeared. He wanted to re-do his interview because a year has passed since filming. That is something that never happens, people know that time has passed from when a documentary been filmed and screened. At least Rebecca Reid gives an alternative view compared to all other panellists (pro-brexit anti-woke, anti-immigration).
The only shows I like on it now are the Political Correction on a sunday morning with Dehenna Davison, Nigel Farage, and Paul Embury. 3 Very different views, but still manage a civilised discussion. Also the "Talking Pints" section of Farage can sometimes be interesting, although too often occupied by Nigel's brexit mates. |
