GB News halted as host issues tragic death announcement | UK News
GB News issued a breaking news update as they announced a lady had died trying to cross the English Channel. TV host Alex Armstrong paused the programme as he said breaking news was coming in. He said: “In the last few moments, it has been confirmed that a woman has died attempting to cross the English Channel in a small boat.
“Kent police have said the next: “Kent police officers are conducting initial enquiries following the death of a woman on a small boat on Saturday the 20th of June 2026. Officers were called to Dover at 3.11 pm along with other emergency services, where the woman was pronounced deceased.”
He added: “A UK government spokesperson said, ‘This afternoon, border security command maritime responded to a small boat that had entered the UK waters. On intercepting this boat, a migrant was found to be unresponsive. Despite medical assistance, we are deeply saddened to confirm that they have since died.
“‘Our ideas are with all of those affected. This latest strategy underlines the horrible risks of small boat crossings. We continue to work relentlessly with the French and other companions abroad to forestall these severe journeys.'”
Alex turned to the panel said: “It beggars perception to me that the federal government still should not getting even more durable on it because every time a migrant comes over the Channel there’s a risk of death.
“We’ve seen many this year already, and surely the immediate response from the government should be that we have to create a very strong deterrence to stop this.”
His co-star replied: ” Well, it makes me even more angry with the scumbags who are taking these huge bribes off people and putting them in harm’s way on the Channel, and when we say you know smash the gangs, that’s what we’re talking about.
“We’re speaking about those kingpins who are making hundreds of thousands off this human distress. I do not blame people wanting a better life. I do blame the people exploiting their weak spot. Is the federal government doing enough? No it isn’t.”
