Was it Katie Hopkins who said she'd emigrate to the US if Trump became President?

Every cloud has a silver lining!

It's only been a few hours - give her a chance to sell the house and book tickets.

She would be an absolute smash in the US, whereas Mr O'Brien would be on the benefits queue with all those he supports.

An example of the difference between an editor of a newspaper and a gossip columnist/games reviewer when it comes to press relationships.

If he wishes to take Paxo's place, he must learn to keep personal feelings under wraps.”

Good post. You can't hàve too many friends better than cultivating enemies.

Well perhaps your beef should lie with LBC rather than JO'B. It's his job, as much later on he explained to another caller who criticised him, to pick holes in people's arguments, which he usually does very successfully, even if he appears unkind.

My point would be that he is not successful. His argumentations usually only work within his own construct of the world, whereby he imagines things - like 'right wing media pouring hate into the ears of the underprivileged' - treats them as if they are real, and then applies 'real world' logic to them, 'proving' points that belong in the fairy tale world of socialism.

But isn't folk who are in the benefits line who have lost jobs that Trump is supposed to want to help?

And you complain about JOB and his calling Farage names.
Usual hypocrisy

That's not going to happen anymore than those rent-a-gob Hollywoodsters will be imigrating to Canada anytime soon. It is such disingenuous OTT talk that sounds so clever and defiant and deering-do, but peel off its surface layers and you find it is all a yawnfest of empty self-serving juvenile hot air.

ETA: There was a bit of that same nonsense verbally bounced about after the Brexit vote. It truly is tiresome.

But the Canadian Immigration website did crash in the early hours of this morning because it couldn't cope!

All quite sobering to learn 7 people have died, 50 injured, and the tram driver has been arrested for travelling too fast. This happened less than 4 miles away from where I live, knowing the area well, it comes as a shock.

1. One was a co-founder of the EU Forum of Judges for the Environment.

2. One was an adviser on an EU initiative with Turkey from 2002 to 2004.

3. One has been involved with the EU Court of Human Rights.

Not biased at all really what am I moaning about Bangla!.

Where was the bias in the judgement?
If you're going to accuse somebody of a crime it's helpful and customary to say what the crime is.
BTW The ECHR has nowt to do with the eu you genius. If all you've got is Daily Mail rubbish you best just drop it.

Yeah, because there are a truckload of idiot fools who think it is so easy to emigrate there. It's very difficult. They don't just let in any old mongrel into their home.

Listening to no-clue Corbyn who thinks he has the finger on the pulse of the disaffected.

Now now Bangla let's not start with the personal insults please.

Anyway I've had an idea how to improve the O'Brien show.

You've made that up.
Suppose if you keep telling each other then it becomes fact in your minds.

Nah. It's the other way round. He as much as said it was during that long call at 12.30pm. "Being polite doesn't boost audience figures.. That's what they want" presumably meaning MR LBC. He never used to be so confrontational. His change co-incided with LBC going national.

Alex Salmond also said he'll go & live in Antarctica if Trump won the Presidency.
Not sure if there's any golf courses on Antarctica mind you.

He does sound as if he is on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

Yes, my beef is with LBC. That's why I mentioned them. They only seem to post calls featuring J O'B getting the better of an inept caller. I don't know who chooses which calls to post and distribute to social media; possibly his producer but I doubt if James specifies which ones feature.
