Nigel Farage to Return to TV Screens on GB News After House of Commons Swearing-In

Nigel Farage, the leader of Reform UK, recently took his seat in the House of Commons as the representative for Clacton, but he is already gearing up for a return to TV screens next week. The 60-year-old politician will be back on GB News, where he previously hosted a show before stepping away to focus on election campaigning.

Farage’s comeback on GB News comes amidst controversy surrounding the channel’s broadcasting practices. Ofcom has found GB News in breach of broadcasting rules on impartiality multiple times, leading to scrutiny of shows hosted by various politicians. Despite the backlash, Farage is set to broadcast from the Westminster studios of the channel three times a week.

The return of Farage to GB News follows his recent election as an MP for the eighth time. After initially stating he wouldn’t run for political office, Farage changed course and announced his candidacy for the seaside constituency of Clacton back in June. In the recent election, he secured victory for Reform UK, garnering 21,225 votes and surpassing his Tory competitor.

As Farage prepares to balance his parliamentary duties with his TV appearances, the spotlight remains on GB News and its ongoing challenges with Ofcom. The channel’s battle with the broadcasting regulator has sparked debates on impartiality and the role of politicians in hosting news programs. Farage’s return to GB News next week is sure to generate further conversation and controversy.
