\n Lowe, who had been a Reform MP before a public power struggle with party leader Nigel Farage<\/a>, alleged that the right-wing channel had imposed a ban on him at his former ally’s behest.\n<\/p>\n

\n In a row with GB News political editor Christopher Hope on social media, Lowe wrote: “You write ‘we offer a platform where all voices are heard’.\n<\/p>\n

\n “Really? When will I be allowed back on live GB News, Chris? Or is Farage’s ban still ongoing?\n<\/p>\n

\n “These are pathetic words whilst your channel continues to censor and ban Restore Britain.”\n<\/p>\n

\n Farage is a presenter on GB News, with his own prime-time show most evenings.\n<\/p>\n

\n Restore Britain was launched<\/a> after Lowe was suspended from Reform UK over bullying claims.<\/a>\n<\/p>\n

\n Lowe went on to threaten to sue Farage,<\/a> and other lead members of Reform, for defamation.\n<\/p>\n

\n Restore Britain previously posted on X on April 1, pointing to a “staggering public exchange” between Lowe and the GB News deputy political editor.\n<\/p>\n

\n Underneath Lowe, left a comment saying: “GB News has censored Restore Britain more than the BBC.”\n<\/p>\n

\n One user commented: \u201cWe have a campaign set up for viewers of GB News to easily complain for the bias against Restore Britain.\n<\/p>\n

\n \u201cPlease share and send in a complaint.”\n<\/p>\n

\n Another added: \u201c I was so pleased when GB News started broadcasting, as I was sick to death of all the woke, left-leaning narrative.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

\n “I thought GB News was different!\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

\n “I thought they actually respected all political parties, giving a platform to everyone.”<\/p>\n

\n Lowe added to this, accusing GB News of banning him. He stated: “Two other presenters have said they’ll have me on, and then gone completely cold when I ask for details \u2013 they are now both ignoring me entirely.\n<\/p>\n

\n “The ban is pathetic.”\n<\/p>\n

\n Under the post, Tom Harwood, deputy political editor of GB News, said he would discuss a date for an interview with Lowe following the local elections on May 7.\n<\/p>\n

\n Harwood commented: “Let\u2019s discuss after the regulated period for the local election campaign is over.\n<\/p>\n

\n “Difficult to have a free hand before then.”\n<\/p>\n

\n GB News has been approached for comment.\n<\/p>\n
