Well that was a shock.

But not for my mother who went Tory for first time since Thatcher (she said she was conned, like many mothers).

Disagree, they are a commercial station, so they pick and choose guest presenters based on popularity (or likely listener figures). If it was a BBC station, I'd agree with you.

Indeed as mentioned there are lefty & righty views on LBC.

Balanced not Bland.

Ahh but by being allowed a slot on LBC he is.

Yes, and if you disagree with him you can phone him and put your point of view (if you feel brave enough). I disagree with you that he is part of the liberal media, they gave him a nightly slot and he sets the agenda. That's quite different from the agenda being pre-determined by an editorial figure. (The radio station is LBC btw, if anyone is curious).

Someone needs to oppose the lefty liberal views of James O'Whine. That bloke makes our expat remainers look like Ghengis Khan.

Sometimes I disagree with both of them.

He's got a talk show on a radio station where there are some left wingers like James O'Brien, some central rightists like Iain Dale but there is also Katie Hopkins. In other words he is part of the liberal media.

Whinging moaning lying git: Nigel Farage says he is 'frightened' to leave his home because of liberal media | The Independent

yeah its not like the left ever commit violence is it? Heathrow, London Riots (pretty much all of them)

He had an opinion, he offered it to the electorate and lots of people supported it. You may not like the opinions but they are neither illegal or as far as I know racially motivated.

I'm failing to see any politician that stated outright immigration would be so high or provided a financial case for it. They decided to do this without asking the Electorate or working out how to pay for it.

Now which is deserving of contempt, the one who instigated a social change without asking people or the one who asked people and got them to vote for a social change?

Does anyone believe anything in the Daily Express anymore?



Had to update:

It's the equivalent of the Independent so everything is spun to the extreme.

Does anyone believe anything in the Daily Express anymore?

The Daily Express has been a joke for years thanks to their Diana stories.

[SueEllen]

Apparently Paul Nuttal has pissed of Arron Banks so he may pull UKIPs funding.

Word on the street is Lab will come 3rd in Copeland, but your Stoke bet should cover the loss.

Which is why I don't bet on elections. Spectacularly. Wrong. Always.
I really should be the next head of YouGov. I'm already highly over-qualified.

Labour need strategists like Blair and co. to take the party in an electable direction

Sometimes there isn't a strategy. If they go for the Remain vote, they're waving goodbye to much of England, even with a credible leader. Scotland is unrecoverable. The boundary changes will cement this structural problem. The Tories will basically need to shoot themselves, so that apathy delivers a hung parliament; the pinnacle, now, of Labour's ambition.
