A special thank you as GB News named fastest growing major news website in the UK

There were 31.12 million visitors to the GB News website last month, which is up 6.17 per cent compared to May.

Figures released by Ipsos show that audience reach among news brands in the UK was up by 18 per cent year-on-year and up by 11 per cent in May alone.

GB News Chief Digital Officer Geoff Marsh thanked GB News members for their continued support stating: "Our phenomenal growth is thanks to our loyal viewers, listeners and web users - but above all our brilliant community of GBN Members.

"We're now holding regular live events and it's such a privilege to be able to meet and talk to this growing group of wonderful people.

"Our members want us to stand up for them and for British values, to hold power to account and fight for fairness, free speech and common sense.

"That's exactly what we do, all day, every day and it's only made possible by the invaluable support GBN members give this channel.

"So a huge thank you to them for helping to make us the fastest growing national news website."

According to the Ipsos data, the GB News audience is now 8.5 million people.

This puts the channel ahead of both the Financial Times and the New York Times.

GB News has huge plans for the future and has already launched its GBN America stream of content, aimed directly at the US market where it is already proving hugely popular, both with British ex-pats and Americans.

In November 2023, it launched GB News Membership - a way for users to read exclusive content and support the channel.

A brand new app, with a host of features, was launched this year.
