Nigel Farage has declared "GB News is here to stay" as he heralded record viewing figures for the People's Channel.
In an exclusive video message to GB News members, without who the Channel would not be where it is today, he said: "Big progress for GB News.
"It was very nice of Elon Musk to tweet how well we had done. With this show beating Sky and the BBC added together. Yesterday was GB News best day ever, beating Sky across the whole of the day by quite a big margin, so we're not going anywhere.
"It seems much of the rest of media is really in a bit of a state, almost in tears.
"And the Guardian now leaving X will tell you what we know where we are, we know who we are, we're making progress and we're here to stay."
Yesterday GB News had the first televised interview with Telegraph columnist and award-winning writer Allison Pearson who is being investigated by Essex Police for allegedly stirring up racial hatred in a social media post last November.
The force has refused to tell her any details about which post on X, formerly Twitter, is being investigated, or who made the complaint against her.
Elon Musk reacted to Nigel Farage's GB News interview with Pearson, tweeting "this is insane."
Pearson, 64, sat down with Farage to discuss the ordeal and claimed it was both "shocking" and "surreal".
Pearson told GB News: "Because it was Remembrance Sunday I drew myself up and told them [the police officers] we are here today on a special day commemorating hundred of men your age who laid down their lives for the country so that it could be a free country and not live under the jackboot of tyranny.
"Here you are on Remembrance Sunday, coming to my house in something that I see to be against freedom."
Responding to GB News' live stream on X, Musk said: "This is insane. Make Orwell Fiction Again!"
