GB News host Eamonn Holmes admitted to hospital

Keeping the worrying hospital news to himself until his return to work, Eamonn said: “I was in hospital the past week and the medication I was taking before I went into hospital compared to the medication I got in hospital made me keep saying: ‘Just tell me, are you doing this for cost reasons, or medical reasons or does no one have a clue?'”

I kind of felt like no one had a clue at the end of the day.

Hitting out further at his treatment in hospital, Eamonn said: “I kind of felt like no one had a clue at the end of the day.

“Medicine’s way of dealing with this is to say: ‘Oh we’ll not give you an antibiotic or have half a headache tablet instead of a full headache tablet.’ That’s not the right way either.”

His GB News co-host Isobel added: “It’s like after childbirth they’ll only give you paracetamol and it’s like: ‘Are you kidding me?’ I’ve basically been through a car crash.”
