GB News hosts Andrew and Miriam were left baffled after Reform UK leader unveiled his Labour defector to the party.

As Nigel Farage announced former Labour Mayor of Newham and ex-leader of Newham London Borough Council Sir Robin Wales as Reform UK's London Director of Local Government.

Cutting away from the press conference, Andrew told GB News viewers: "If that is the major Labour defection that's been flagged for some weeks, that doesn't quite cut it... it's not quite up there with a former Tory Home Secretary and a former Chancellor."

Miriam then admitted: "He's not a household name, is he? I had never heard of him, I've just been googling him."
