Emily Maitlis interviews James O'Brien | LBC 

I enjoy this open discussion and the honest approach to so many issues that get clobbered by Murdoch’s press . Refreshing and eye opening

It's the fall of The British Empire on wall to wall TV coverage it is. Totally laughable!

@@frankbrennan1619 ....join the dots, perhaps they're wealthy BECAUSE of their intelligence?! If they're intelligent, which they are (whether you agree with what they say or not), surely only a fool wouldn't at least listen to what they say? Some hard concepts to grasp I'm sure...

@@frankbrennan1619pretty sure they both had a state education. The rest comes with talent.

@@Ginric99 pretty sure your wrong as james was public fee paying schoool emily i am not sure about emily but of course she went to cambridge and not sheffield polytechnic

​@@frankbrennan1619 The time honoured Chewbacca argument, we are talking about their quality as journalists and instead you refer to their backgrounds. You could as well could have writing frantically "HEY, LOOK, CHEWBACCA!" and that would add as much as your comment to our understanding of the topic.

Myself, I think, they should get a room. The love is espousing here more than in a Barbara Cartland or a Nadine Dorries book - blech! 😁🙃

Best journalists!? Hahahaha

@@huwzebediahthomas9193 🔼Right winger whose fear of intelligence sends them into a rant about sexuality. Shocker!

@@zoot4358 The author did not state they were the best. If you can't read then don't reply.

@@22wabbit What's your basis for comparison?

LBC is incredibly biased it doesn't even pretend.

The trouble with Oh Brian ,is he has no idea of history , if you compare some of the events and action of a hundred years ago things are pretty tame in our time . The media of which he is part loves to exaggerate events , Britain has always had a problem with countries on the continent had he any knowledge of history he would know we get on well with Europe in our times . His whole act ,which is bs is to divert our attention from the immigration crisis ,and it is failing . Brexit was caused by immigration , you cram too many people of different cultural backgrounds together and the result is misery for all concerned ,not that he would know living in his select little English village , and I will put money on his brats attending private education Hypocrite in the first degree

​@@rolandhawken6628Is that you, Mr Dacre?

'Oh Brian'@@rolandhawken6628

@@rolandhawken6628does he? Or do people like you who keep harping on about a British history that does not exist anymore need to move on? BTW he lives in that village called London.

Imagine walking into a bookies in 2012 ,and asking for accie odds on Leicester winning the Prem , Britain leaving the EU and Trump becoming President...

😂😂😂

Are you the publisher's vampire?

It will simply reinforce your understandable anger at them.

2 of the worst entitled wokerati in the country. O Brian the man who is an expert on everything and knows nothing

@@paulstewart4195 spot on mate

short term profits over long term sustainability. or simply put: greed. greed is our downfall.

​@@idokwatcher2062Money is the root of all evil, although O'Brien is trying hard to muscle in on the act . . .

@@vonryansexpressincorrect. It’s the love of money that is the root of all evil.

That’s called propaganda my friend!

​@@vonryansexpressevidence ? Because he's earning royalties from his brilliant book ?

Only those within his sacred echo chamber though…..why else doesn’t he want his bias tested?

🤣 nice sarcasm

Are you Mrs O'brien per chance?

​@@nick1065 His echo chamber? The mics are open to people with opposite opinions and they almost always get skewered .

@@Tzctplus Yeah right, not forgetting that all Tory MP’s are scared to debate him too….

I don't think you can accuse him of not being in politics.

I think hes exactly where he is most effective.

He'd be wasted in Politics. We need him where he is and I'm looking forward to him keeping Labour in line too.

@@berthika1219 we love him on the outside, but think of what he can do within

Do you people not understand, he would not be able to speak lije this in politics. He needs to be exactly where he is? However if he kerps saying these things Brits will wake up. Labour will win, when you call for a new election in early 2024

Oh..! Thank you ! I have had one Audible credit in my purse for a while now

@@bobjary9382 I thoroughly recommend. But I had to slow it a bit because James definitely gives it one lol. ENJOY

🤣 love the sarcasm

Well, he is right about Starmer at least, he is all those things.👍

Emily not a journalist matey

@@tonboy8518 Do you mean that she did not study journalism ? She has received a few awards for journalism including a German award for excellence in journalism.

​@@wallybingbang4350Vicious Political activist hiding behind the name "Journalist" . . Even the appalling BBC sussed that and moved her on . . .

@@vonryansexpress I see she has had complaints against her for prodding and bullying behaviour. Not just a pretty face 😀

@@wallybingbang4350 very sinister woman indeed . . . Drenched in self-righteousness and self-importance

Did you read mindf**k but Chris while?

drumpf wouldnt have been president without the fox news lying machine propping him up.

*love this combo

@@frankbrennan1619 What are you talking about? They aren’t painting themselves as victims, it’s the country they see as a victim of charlatans and liars. And what does their wealth have to do with it? It seems to me you have no legitimate critique of what they’re saying and have to resort to personal attacks

He commeth all over the gammonesses faces every morning

​@@frankbrennan1619Even though there is only evidence that those immigrants only come and do the jobs that the British can't or won't do.

Sire Keith “trapping Bojo in his lies and dispatching him” you absolute melt- who’s going to trap Stùrmer in his lie and dispatch him- clearly not you or the establishment media!

@@lynnevenables7193 sire kid starver esquire shall trap himself in his own lies because he is a red but tory. The establishment media love him because he is their guy

We gave BoJo the opportunity to see what he could do, until Starmer has actually had his time as leader its just speculation. @@lynnevenables7193

They very much ARE the establishment

To move back, we'd need to expose the Emperor's New Clothes and have the disenfranchised right admit they've been hoodwinked - not going to happen. To move forward, we'd need a master of conflict resolution at the helm to explain the reality of compromise, and deliver a suite of policies that leaves no-one 100% satisfied. Rory Stewart springs to mind.

@@danmayberry1185 My heart agrees with you but my head keeps reminding me of Nelson Mandela saying you make agreements with your enemies and not your friends!

Identify who is funding the far right and ensure everyone knows who they are, what they’ve done, and the financial interests they’ve been pursuing. (They didn’t spend all that money to help their country - it was to help themselves to more of the country’s wealth.)

Grassroots campaigning will be needed to secure a much more progressive approach to politics that will hopefully counter the reactionary populism we’ve seen so much of lately. A shift towards a greener future will also be essential to combat the rampant unsustainable greed that defines corporations that stop at nothing to generate profit. It will be slow, hard work but unless those two objectives are front and centre then we may as well give up.

@@MontyCantsin5 Hauntingly reminiscent of the 1960s. Guess we've learned it's like weeding .. not a once-and-done effort.

Totally agree 👍

Stop lying

... did he though?? Let's have pointers towards evidence that was his critique of JC (no, not THAT one)

Classic champagne socialism

Yes i have on .Netherlsnds

Nicely put.

It's on Spotify if you have that?

"hilarious" gosh that is a very strange way of spelling "bitter and condescending"

@jeffsimon9594: Funny way of admitting that you have an inferiority complex. Why do you feel so threatened?

It's worth listening to his telephone conversation with Frank Lampard.

@@Swagger29 It is not worth listening to

@@MontyCantsin5 I am threatened by and jealous of his devilishly handsome movie star looks most of all.

Says it all!

The alternative ,is at least 10 times worse than anything the Tories have allowed to happen on their watch.

Be careful what you wish for,

Government of the day ? Any recent Government, Tony Blair instigated the destruction of Britain and its culture based on his globalists masters bigger agenda

Everything the Tories have done, Stymie can make worse.Much, much worse.

Word.

Love the idea of popping it on the parents christmas list.

Some of us parents have listened to journalists on Novara and Owen Jones for a few years now who have done a lot of journalism on all.of this. Don't be patronising and stick us all in one box.

its important to notice generalisations.....They talk in general, no facts were correctly told.

​@@MrParky018the book is full of facts which are also referenced in great detail.

...mmm.....are you really...?

He ain’t that clever he just bullies people on topics he revises for weeks first

@@pipins3616 People who are forced to call him during his broadcast i guess...

​@@pipins3616I found the first negative comments . Know one's perfect mate .

Really🤣

Translation:- a fellow champagne socialist

Progressing to everlasting incessant waffle ..

@@jeffsimon9594 It is very easy to be a "socialist" when you have money. If you do not have money you are too busy trying to make ends meet to even understand what is going on around you. Pubs the working mans social club are closing by the hundred every week. My local after over 100 years is closing in a dormitory village where a new house costs between £300K+ to £800K+.

@@scottyfive4319 That has a lot more to do with large corporations such as Tesco selling alcohol far cheaper and outside of licensing hours to a younger generation who can no longer afford nights out than rocketing houses prices. Pubs never had global corporations as competition 100 years a go. Go campaign outside your local supermarket or better yet, to the conservatives, the party that welcomes corporate competitiveness.

@@jeffsimon9594 And yet it was the tory party who bailed out the population during the pandemic with borrowed money and have just handed every household in Britain a check for £600 for the winter fuel bill. Is that not socialism?

I agree superb book but boy does it make me angry about the crimes committed by this "elite".

@@grahamariss2111 Like all his other books I am sure it will vastly outstrip Douglas Murray's sales! Oh wait, hang on...
