It has been three weeks since allegations against the outspoken broadcaster Dan Wootton emerged.

Since then, he has continued to present his regular show on GB News while the publishers of the Sun and MailOnline have begun separate investigations, and an MP has asked questions about inquiries into the conduct of the rightwing polemicist. A central allegation is that Wootton was using a pseudonym, Martin Branning.

Someone who called themselves Martin Branning has been accused of allegedly offering Wootton’s former Sun colleagues thousands of pounds in return for explicit material.

Now a new witness has come forward to claim “Martin Branning” and Dan Wootton were one and the same man. » | Jim Waterson, Media editor | Monday, August 7, 2023
