Ex-GB News Presenter Sues for Racial Discrimination, Unfair Dismissal
Albie Amankona, a former GB News presenter and Conservative activist, is suing the network for unfair dismissal and multiple claims including racial discrimination, belief discrimination, harassment, victimisation, unequal pay, and whistleblowing detriment after he called former Home Secretary Suella Braverman "a racist and a thoroughly bigoted woman" on air. GB News apologized to Braverman, stating Amankona's remarks crossed the line between robust debate and causing unnecessary offense, and subsequently took him off air in 2024. Amankona alleges that GB News treated non-white employees differently and failed to address his complaints about racist behavior by colleagues, while the channel denies all claims and calls the legal action "misconceived" and without merit. Supported by the Good Law Project, Amankona has launched a crowdfunding campaign to fund his tribunal case, which highlights the contradiction between GB News's claimed commitment to free speech and its response to criticism of racism. The case adds to a series of controversies surrounding GB News, which has faced regulatory scrutiny and significant presenter turnover since its 2021 launch. The Good Law Project emphasizes that UK employment protections apply to all workplaces, including GB News, and is backing Amankona's case to challenge what it calls the channel's toxic working environment and alleged discriminatory practices.
