Right narrative

While the media and political establishments continue to seek the demise of GB News, the signing of Johnson shows that the TV channel continues to grow in popularity and power. Whether you agree or disagree with the former prime minister, it's certain that everybody will have their eyes on his new show in 2024.

Left narrative

The return of Johnson to the spotlight shows that, after his disgraceful premiership at the helm of the UK government, the former prime minister has no shame. Following lie after lie, as well as an onslaught of scandals, there's no public desire to see Johnson anytime soon.
