From GB News to UnHerd: meet Paul Marshall
SOLOMON HUGHES suspects the real rightward push that hedge fund boss Paul Marshall is sponsoring is the privatise and deregulate, free-market agenda – using ‘culture war’ issues to build support for his media ventures

THE chairman of struggling, sensationalist right-wing propaganda TV channel GB News, Paul Marshall, is also spending around £1.6 million of his own money every year to keep a far from sensational political commentary website called UnHerd going.
Marshall is a hedge fund boss with an estimated £630m fortune who likes to use his money to play politics.
He is one of the main investors in the GB News TV channel. When Andrew Neil walked out of GB News, realising its mix of farcically bad production and crass right-wing politics was making him look like an idiot, Marshall became GB News chairman.
