I am truly shocked that JOB is allowed to rant in the way he is doing this morning - to tell listeners they are wrong is a strange way to present a programme. Referring to Mr Garage was pathetic

Wow ... Below the belt, even for you.

Seconded. I thought GS was being quite restrained calling him rude. It wasn't clever, funny, witty, enlightening or amusing. It was plain bloody dog-whistle offensive.

One of life's little mysteries.

I don't think he's contravened any broadcasting code or law.
All else is personal taste.

Likewise, am finding this show offensive
Wonder how many people who don't listen to JOB are upset and angry with today's rather excellent show?

Presumably when Katie Hopkin (as reported on here) had a dig at O'Brien on her show you revelled in it.
Why would be any different for O'Brien and Farage?
O'Brien has churned out some terrible shows recently but that first hour has to be one of the absolute worst he's managed this year.

Rather excellent? Bitter Remoaners of a feather flock together.

Which bit of the code do you think he's contravened?

True to my word mate I ain't listening I've been playing on the floor with my little 2 year old grandson trying to stand Fireman Sam figures up long enough before he kicks them everywhere around the room.
It's so much more fun than listening to biased hate from O'Brien.

That is a really daft comment!
It should be enough to simply say: I don't like a particular presenter.
At least that makes sense.....
LBC Listener: Mr Rea, I am writing to complain because I don't like this guy.
LBC: Thanks for sharing.
I'm finding it offensive too and I'm not listening and so is my wife who is also not listening and is in the kitchen.

Due impartiality/bias. Also, potentially hate speech.

You presume wrongly, no idea what your point is
Afternoon all
Am hungover as had to turn to drink after going to the cinema to see I am Daniel Blake last night
And am loving Mr O'Brien this morning
A welcome change from all the bile and cobblers from Hopkins and Farrage

So MPs will get to decide the fate of our EU membership, as though the assorted crooks, losers,, alcys, no-hopers, bigots, harpies and failed businessmen that make up the House of Commons are any more clued-up or less self-interested than the average joe on the street.
They just voted that wrong'un Vaz onto their Justice Committee Yes Parliament are clearly the people to entrust with a complex decision like this which will have far-reaching impacts many, many years after they're all six feet under.

Parliamentary sovereignty and taking back control suddenly not quite such appealing concepts?

Sorry, can't help. Maybe you could research that and I will keep listening to see if I can work out whether he thinks it's a good idea to leave the EU.
