Conservative deputy chairman Lee Anderson has revealed he will be paid £100,000 a year for hosting a show on GB News, PA Media reports. PA says:
The annual fee, declared in an update to the MPs’ register of interests published on Wednesday, is a significant increase on the £200 weekly payment he received for appearing as a regular on Dan Wootton’s show.
The controversial MP for Ashfield, in Nottinghamshire, became the fifth Tory MP to host a GB News show when his deal with the channel was announced on 7 March.
He joins fellow Conservatives Jacob Rees-Mogg, Esther McVey and Philip Davies, who all currently host shows. Bishop Auckland MP Dehenna Davison previously hosted a show but left when she was made a levelling up minister.

I`m surprised they can afford to pay him £100k given their financial problems. As he is an MP presumably his broadcasting job is part-time.
Is GB News still available on Freeview? When it first launched I used to sneak a look at it out of curiousity but can`t seem to find it now.

Is the guy who lost the Indy referendum still a Russia TV stooge?

The involvement of these MP`s are against the rules seemingly, questions were asked at one of the committees last week, a developing story?
Mind you if the "Child catcher" is involved, it`ll be fine!🤔🐷😡

They are permitted to be on it as (hilariously) GB News is not considered to be a news channel.

Channel 236 on Freeview if anyone is interested (for research purposes only!).
