Only found out about this lot yesterday following their appearance on the Boris Show and then a news article about advertisers withdrawing already.
Maybe I'm a bit too liberal and woke to have been exposed to their "press" but surprised my casually racist, homophobic, politically incorrect father-in-law hasn't mentioned it.
For those who've watched... Fox News? Sounds like it.

Obviously they both have the same owner so, yes it is the UK's equivalent of Fox News and will no doubt target the same mindset....

Not too sure what your strange quote is, but if it concerns IKEA you may wish to Google the company's founder, Ingvar Kamprad's, support of the Nazi party and Germany in WW2. This also goes for other Swedish companies during the 1940's (in case you wondered how they managed to stay neutral when countries all around them were occupied). Posters often decry the DM's past - but lots of other companies have murky pasts they would rather forget. The Swedes are not so squeaky clean as they would have you believe.
