its interesting that I've not seen a single person he worked with of any ethnicity say a bad word about him since this news broke and the general reaction from most people maybe as high as 95% is positive towards him. They discussed it on GMB during the papers and not one of the 6 of them thought he should have gone. They then had a second discussion at the end of GMB with a black woman and a black man. The Woman thought it was racist and the man said he had done nothing wrong
Obviously, man, he was not a tyrant or something. I wasn’t saying that. And who would come on air and crap on him? (and i mean a low-level git lol.) However - the tweet speaks for itself, and it backs up exactly what I said. It’s pretty evident he’s a bit of a pompous dude. And a very good evening.. to you. 🤣
edit: sorry to his fans, not trying to be wildly offensive. just i thought he was a bit of a pompous old thing and not a fan of his style (and he came across to me as self-aggrandizing). Not against posh accents per se - Sandy Gall was my favourite.. and he had the common touch.
Alastair Stewart to leave ITV News.
Always thought he was silly and pompous and full of himself... since 1987!!! As a kid - when you like everybody - he was nice to have as part of the "News at Ten" furniture and other bulletins, but later it was obvious he was a bit of a pain.
