A GB News journalist said that pro-Palestinian protesters “warned” stallholders of the channel’s presence at a rally on Saturday.

Hundreds of people gathered across Scotland yesterday, including in Edinburgh and Glasgow to call for an immediate ceasefire.

The protests came after International Women’s Day, with many holding up signs with messages saying, “stand in solidarity with Palestinian women”.

However, reporting for GB News, journalist Tony McGuire said some people warned others not to talk to the broadcaster.

“Altogether, relatively peaceful day here but you know it was interesting at one point someone had obviously done a quick Google and worked out who I was, didn’t take too kindly to the channel and proceeded to go around all the stallholders warning them effectively of my presence,” he said.

He said it was a “bit disheartening” to see this happening and continued: “As reporters, as GB News video journalists all around the country it’s our job just to report the news certainly not to make it.

“But on the whole everyone was extremely friendly as you might expect but these marches, this is now five months in week after week, we’re lucky in Glasgow because it’s contained here in the pedestrianised area of George Square, but I can only imagine listening to Katherine earlier on how hectic it is down there in London.”

Back in the studio, host Nana Akua said: “Well listen Tony thank you very much. Shame that they are so anti GB News.

“They’ve probably never watched it. That’s usually the way.”

Earlier this month, broadcast regulator Ofcom published a ruling on Laurence Fox’s “misogynistic” rant about a female journalist and described his comments as “degrading and demeaning”.

We told how the watchdog had called GB News bosses in for talks after raising “significant concerns” about the broadcasters control over its live output.
