AI Summary

medium article 3 min

GB News is facing criticism and an investigation by Ofcom after commentator Thomas Corbett-Dillon claimed a "genocide" was occurring against white people in the UK on the "Late Show Live" program. Corbett-Dillon, a former advisor to prominent Conservative politicians, argued that England's indigenous population was being overtaken and that immigrants could "turn" on the white population in the future. His comments sparked 24 complaints to Ofcom, which is reviewing whether the broadcast violated impartiality standards. Corbett-Dillon defended his statements, comparing his views to supporting the preservation of majority populations in countries like Israel and Japan. Ofcom has been accused of abandoning impartiality rules recently.
