Andrew Neil’s GB News has launched a recruitment drive for 140 jobs, calling for “disruptors and innovators” who want to help “reshape television and digital news”.

It is been widely reported that the channel will be right-wing, with some even predicting that it will be the UK’s answer to Rupert Murdoch-owned Fox in the US.

Chairman and ex-BBC presenter Andrew Neil (pictured) has said GB News will target “the vast number of British people who feel under served and unheard by their media”.
