GB NEWS could be fined after one of its programmes featuring Rishi Sunak breached impartiality rules.
Regulator Ofcom said that it was considering a "statutory sanction" after finding the TV channel failed to produce a balanced show in line with the Broadcasting Code.
The watchdog said it is "starting the process for consideration of a statutory sanction" after analysis of the broadcast entitled People's Forum: The Prime Minister.

Ofcom ruled that the broadcast was fine in principle, but "due weight" should have been given to an "appropriately wide range of significant views" other than the Conservatives'.
GB news reacted angrily, saying in a statement: "The upcoming General Election will be decided by the people of Britain, not journalists, not Ofcom regulators, but ordinary people.
