Jacob Rees Mogg to host GB News show

May 4,2020 12:08 pm

Former Tory cabinet minister Jacob Rees-Mogg is to host his own TV Talk Show on GB News, the broadcaster said.

The North East Somerset MP's new show, it added, will see him " debate the hot topics of the day" and interview guests from " across the political spectrum".

The ex-business secretary and minister of state for Brexit opportunities and government efficiency described GB News as " a bastion of free speech".

He joins fellow conservative MP Esther Mcvey on the television channel.

Other presenters include Nigel Farage , John Cleese and Eamonn Holmes .

Mr Rees-Mogg - a vocal supporter of the previous Prime Ministers Liz Truss and Boris Johnson - quit as business secretary in October, amid a major cabinet overhaul after entering Downing Street.

Now a backbencher, he also previously served as leader of The House of Commons and lord president of the Privy Council from 2019 to 2022.

Speaking about his new role, He Said : " GB News is a bastion of free speech which clearly has its finger uniquely on The Pulse of Public Opinion and does not talk down to its viewers and listeners.

" I have been impressed by the channel's independent-mindedness and its determination to talk to people with many different perspectives, which is exactly what I will do on my programme. "

GB News launched in June 2021, becoming the UK's First Tv news start-up for 30 years, since The Launch of Sky News .

But its chairman and lead presenter Andrew Neil resigned just three months after it went on air.

The channel's editorial director Mick Booker described its latest addition, Mr Rees-Mogg, as " an authentic and authoritative voice of the Tory backbenches with his trademark Common Sense , refreshing directness, and an impish sense of fun".

He added that the new programme " will embrace a range of guests and viewpoints from all sides of politics but will also explore some of Jacob's other wide-ranging interests".
