Former Labour MP Bill Rammell has sparked a fierce free speech row on-air row after labelling commentator Adam Brooks "far right".
The pair came to blows as last night's GB News panel discussed Donald Trump's intervention in Britain's free speech crackdown.
Discussing Trump's investigation in the UK, Rammell claimed that the move was due to "pressure from far right activists" in the US, including Charlie Kirk.
Interrupting Rammell, commentator Brooks asked him: "What makes someone far right? Am I far right?"

Responding to Brooks, Rammell simply stated: "Yeah."
Infuriated by Rammell's claim, the Essex publican launched a scathing rant on the ex-Labour Minister: "I'm far right? You're absolutely bonkers.
"You've just lost any credibility you ever had with the viewers. It's pathetic. What makes me far right, Bill?"
Rammell hit back: "If you look in any classical political terms, the views you espouse, Adam, are far right.

"Every week, you claim that you're a sage of public opinion with your finger on the pulse, because a few people come into your pub."
Brooks slapped down Rammell's claims, stating: "Bill, you are deluded. You are utterly deluded. The audience are probably screaming at the telly right now."
Attempting to intervene in the row, host Ben Leo offered a defence for Brooks, telling Rammell: "When you call people like Adam Brooks far right, I mean, far right are people who have been recently nicked by the NCAA for plotting to blow up mosques and so on. Those people are far right, not having concerns about migration."
Asked by Brooks if "Reform are far right", Rammell agreed, declaring: "Yes, they are."

Expressing his disbelief at Rammell, Brooks jibed: "Oh you're mad, absolutely mad."
Defending his placement of Brooks in the far right category, Rammell told the GB News panel: "Adam, I respect your views, but I disagree with them. In classical terms, you're on the far right label."
Highlighting Rammell's claim about Reform UK, Brooks fumed: "You just labelled tens of millions of people in this country as far right, if you think I'm far right."
Ben then asked Rammell: "So you think Reform UK are far right, but the millions of people who voted for them are not?"
He responded: "Absolutely, because people were voting in protest. It was a protest vote. Look at the detailed polling evidence from More In Common, where they interviewed people who'd voted for Reform. And their key message for voting Reform was, we want to send a message to the Government."
