No it proves how desperate you are. The tiresome remoaners insult and just ranting about O'Brien because leave voters can never answer his simple questions. I am sure you prefer the quality of discussion that is on offer with Nick Ferrari, Nigel Farage and Katie Hopkins? And then you have a cheek to say remainers are desperate?
O Briens show is intended for the unemployed given the time it is on.

We have a radio sub forum if you want to discuss LBC radio - which is where this thread should have be moved to.

It's not news or politics.

Who cares what someone on a radio phone in thinks?
In this case, I do. Wrecklessly, I am going to assume that the caller voted to leave the EU. So his vote is making Brexit happen. He thought about how he was going to vote, so he's thought about the process and plan to leave the EU.

So that's why so many leave voters are listening?

I expect many are retired. It's younger people in London who are most likely to not be working - the group most likely to have voted remain.

As for the caller I might suggest he tunes into Julia Hartley Brewer on talk radio instead at 10am.
Thanks for that, I didn't know Julia H-B was on talk radio now. I wouldn't listen to James O'Brian as is so pompous and Julia's replacement, Shelagh F. is so very dull compared to Julia H-B.

Julia's take down of the new Lib Dem MP for Richmond the day after the by election was a master class.

It's a good representation, the rigid thought pattern and the lack of empathy is something I recgonise in many Brexiteers offline.
My experiences of Brexit supporters has been a disappointing one, so far.

Unable to answer 'yes/no' questions, unable to offer a practical exit process or plan, answering a different question than the one asked, answers which lack clarity and demostrate personal frustration or unwillingness to engage in debate.

You mean you have questioned all 17.4 million? Well done!

In my experience the problem is you don't like the answers.

Lord Lawson put it very well in this response.

There's answers are neither likeable nor dislikeable. They're invariably unsatisfying breezy bluster.

They don't tend to be an informed and articulate lot.

Educated man wins over not so educated man shock.

Love the sneering attitude though, it's so typical of some remainers.

The difference with the guy on the O'Brien show is that he didn't have a press officer to end the call, unlike her.

Agreed.

I'm a remainer who wants to debate not sneer.

Why do "love the sneering attitude" ?

James O'Brien has often invited calls from Brexiteers and with hardly any exception they all come across more or less the same as the caller on the website - totally clueless and never able to explain how their life will be better outside the EU or what EU laws they don't like. One Remainer called the show yesterday saying that having listened to all those irrational callers he felt like packing his bags and leaving the country.
It is not a case of what EU laws we don't like. It is a case of who is making those laws and whom they are accountable to.

If you want to listen to three hours worth of remoaner ranting and sneering a day then the James O Brien show sounds right up your street.

You do realise LBC broadcasts nationwide? So leave voters are mainly people with no future to worry about who aren't working? That's for clearing that up.

Stupid posts like yours proves that O'Brien doesn't have to work very hard to prove a point.

Really? So who should make those laws then? Because you bloody moan about decisions that are made by British courts.
