GB News host Andrew Pierce has been left fuming after the Welsh government paying nearly £250,000 to block GB News and said "How dare they?"

Last October, the Welsh parliament was accused of "censorship" after using a system to ban GB News from its televisions.

Speaking on GB News Bev Turner said: "The Welsh Parliament has paid a quarter of £1 million to change their software in their buildings, so they can't get GB News.

Andrew teased: "I think it's because they heard you, and they thought no more of that."

Bev responded: "I can't believe this. It is outrageous." Realising her co-hosts jibe she said: "I think probably you're more of a thorn in their side than I am."

Sharing a viewers point of view she said: "Richard says the problem with all the other media is that they are all jealous, because TV news is a breath of fresh air, and it tells the truth.

Andrew added: "It's a very serious point, though. How dare they use taxpayers' money to prevent a recognised broadcaster?"
