Until now, only licensed TV channels had to comply with Ofcom's broadcasting code and accessibility requirements - and some popular streaming services in the UK were not regulated at all.

The UK’s biggest video-on-demand services will have to follow the same rules on content and accessibility as traditional broadcasters, under new legislation being implemented.

    Seems then like there’s no real reason to block applying the rules to streamers while trying to prosecute GB news.

    What I didn’t realise when writing my first comment was that GB News has already been fined for breaching Ofcom rules.
