Iain has tweeted that he's got the PM on the show tomorrow and have we got any questions we'd like him to ask. How about: 'Why are you such a lying git, Mr Cameron?'

Has LBC reported the latest piece of lunacy from Boris? Not even the most ardent Brexiter could do nothing but cringe. It involves bananas.

Putting Brexit aside, Boris is becoming more than a worry. We all know he has brilliant academic achievements under his belt, yet still, he adopts his superficial clownish narrative as though we're all suckers for his charismatic style. The poor old lurve must think the majority of potential voters has just accidently floated down The Clyde on a biscuit.

That'll be a BL%& JOB, then

There's a thin line between genius and lunacy.

I believe this is what Boris is referring to. Perhaps he didn't read it thoroughly, although you can't blame him as the EU regulations concerning bananas runs to several pages. This is the relevant section:

C. Presentation
The bananas must be presented in hands or clusters (parts of hands) of at least four fingers. Bananas may also be presented as single fingers.
Clusters with not more than two missing fingers are allowed, provided that the stalk is not torn but cleanly cut, without damage to the neighbouring fingers.
Not more than one cluster of three fingers with the same characteristics as the other fruit in the package may be present per row.
In the producing regions, bananas may be marketed by the stem.

And that's just bananas. Presumably an equal amount of gobbledegook is devoted to every type and cultivar of fruit and veg. And then there's meat and fish. I can't imagine how many regulations there are for sausages! Or how many people are employed to churn out this stuff and make sure it's implemented.

Sorry - off topic but relevant to LBC's news agenda.

Good attempt at a defence but anyone who visits a supermarket and I would suggest that is a vast majority of voters will know that Boris is talking rollocks.

It's not a defence; it's a p***-take. I was hoping I might not be the only one to find it all ludicrously funny.

It's the Arqiva Radio Awards tonight. Steve had to buy a proper shirt - the boss had forbidden him to turn up in one of his Tommy Bahamas!

Iain Dale has won Presenter of the Year

Wonder if Steve is up for an award ? Middle of the night for him this.

Yes, I wondered that. Long service medal perhaps.

Lifetime achievement award !

Blimey! And presented by Biggins!

Gold Award to give it the precise name.

Well deserved recognition for a one of a kind broadcaster we'll never hear the like of again.

That's true. I don't think he's ever won anything before, so we mustn't begrudge him.

If it were anyone else, I'd have thought the chances of them being on air to do their show at 4am would be minimal. But it's Steve............

Very good

I think James O'Brien will need an oxygen tank where he is going at 10 am tomorrow! As well as a shower with plenty of soap after........

Frankly, I am in utter bewilderment why people find this bumbling buffoon so endearing.
Yes, he's intelligent (I think) and is a good communicator and in no way lackadaisical in character but most of the time, the stuff that comes out of his mouth is utter gibberish.

My most memorable image of Boris is of him stuck on a zipwire waving two Union jack flags, socks exposed wearing that silly blue crash helmet.

(Why did anyone ever let him down???)

He's turning out to be a greater asset for the Remain campaign with his words on Hitler.

Only caught two minutes of LBC this morning though just in time to hear Alastair Campbell call James Delingpole a buffoon live on air.

Sounds like panic from the Remain Side......

now steve has been given his retirement clock radio ward, he can go off on that cruise into the sunset.... now is the time to set him free lbc..... mr ben needs to walk his twickers streets picking up litter and mumbling to himself all day while he can still walk

Brietbart getting airtime. Careful LBC, that website and organisation is renowned for not telling the truth.

Congratulations to Steve Allen

He has been broadcasting for LBC, since 1979 !!!

to all those who disagree with me

Also, congrats to Ian Dale. Although, I don't listen - he is on at the wrong time of the day for me.

Happy Wednesday to All x

We all say that about media outlets we don't agree with. I never believe a word I read in The Guardian. Please don't start giving examples of stuff you think is untrue or it could go on all day!

Morning all.

Even those who dislike him must agree that he deserves it for lasting so long in a very precarious industry. He must have been doing something right, and he seems to have a lot of respect and affection from his peers.
