Marr going all Maude Flanders over Liz Truss doing an interview with a 'far right conspiracy' website the owner of whom once said to Jess Philips 'I wouldn't even rape you'. It's a truly disgusting comment, but Marr had the bloviating Philips on bleating that Truss should have the whip withdrawn. Meanwhile she's spent all her Parliamentary career sat on the same benches as John Mcdonnell who said he wished he could have gone back and assassinated Margaret Thatcher. Spare us the sanctimony love

The same Andrew Marr who lived a double-life (having child with another woman not his wife) whilst at the same time berating Tory politicians for lying? Surely not. I'M OUTRAGED SIR. I DEMAND A DUEL!
 
Geezus. Touching-cloth in Liberal Media Land. All joking apart though, who the duck listens to this? Not anyone who is likely to push the electoral needle for certain.

He also suggested that Esther Mcvey should be lynched. What a lovely man. 🙄
 
Here's little miss outraged talking about Jeremy Corbyn “I won’t knife you in the back, I’ll knife you in the front.’”

Easy to take a quote and make a story isn't it ? Marr's interview was nauseatingly insincere

Jimbo looks in pain. Is he still constipated?

He has a fine head of hair though. Much more hair than he used to have....

God help me but I started watching, the witless drivel quickly turned into background noise once I'd focussed on his newly acquired luscious locks.

A psychiatrist would have a field day on the vanity of a man in his 50's feeling the need for plastic surgery by any other name.

Much as I love an opportunity to mock Jobby, I think his luxurious locks owe more to skilful deployment of mousse and a clever blow-dry than surgery. Pause at 0.55 and you can see how that tuft at the front has been swept back to cover the bald patch on the crown. And his hairline hasn't changed from a few years ago.
Isn't it sad that I waste time Googling this stuff! :rolleyes:😅

Nick Ferrari doing his level best today to turn the Diane Abbott situation into a”mini crisis” and saying if Starmer can’t manage this then how is he going to manage the country? Dear God. The situation has been explained hundreds of times and there will be a decision from the National Executive soon. In the scheme of things the future of a Labour MP palls into insignificance. What to the electorate care about? The cost of living crisis? Their mortgage repayments? The state of the NHS? Violence on the streets? Apparently the great British public are also lying awake at night worrying themselves sick about the plight of a Labour MP. The right are really clutching at straws. The only people making this a crisis are the right wing media. To anyone else it is a selection issue.

LOL, that's exactly what I wrote in the politics thread! Like all good bullshit, there has to be a kernel of truth (or sweetcorn). Come on Moley1, Ferrari is just a blow-hard. Riling-up listeners is his raison d'etre. Nick is a broadcaster on commercial radio, his first concern is keeping the advertisers happy. You know this, I don't have to explain how it all works to you.

I could be wrong, but I really don't think many people give a duck about the opinion of Nick Ferrari or anyone else on LBC frankly. Listening to most broadcasters on LBC is like taking a tit, it's just not that memorable.

I take your point though Moley1.

If a comb over was good enough for the great Sir Bobby Charlton, it is good enough for the great James O’Brien! 😎

Oh dear. Iain's announcement about standing for Parliament has engendered a flurry of pics and videos on social media of him apparently duffing up a pensioner. I have to say I wonder if he's temperamentally suited to the job. A short fuse and thin skin aren't best suited to dealing with constituents.

Don't leave us hanging ffs! Show us! 😬

It didn't surprise me that Iain has gone for it. It's not the first time is it? Didn't he try to be a candidate once before prior to him being in the media and joining LBC? It's obviously something he really wants to do if he's jacking in a very good position at LBC. It makes a change tbh. Someone putting their money where their mouth is.

I'm sure he's perfectly sincere. Broadcasting from LBC's Westminster studio must put him in touch with Tory high command. It's possible that the suggestion came from them. I recall them asking Ferrari to stand as Mayor of London and him refusing on the grounds that he couldn't afford the pay cut! ;)

Think Steve Bray with a dog. This old duffer tried to ruin TV interviews by waving a placard and shouting in the background . A complete pain in the arse. He was with Damian Mcbride on a round of interviews to promote a book. They were doing a very early morning one when the scruff turned up, Dale grabbed the bloke and tried to haul him out of the way. Dale fell over, the bloke fell over Dale and the bloke's dog was somewhere in there yapping

Dale was actually very patient, I'd have launched the wanker head first over the railings

Ok, I found the footage of Iain Dale and did some wizardry so that you can see. The things I do for you bunch of losers. :rolleyes:😬:cautious: Seriously though, trying to cave-in some blokes head when you were a 'spin doctor' ain't good. I think this happened about 10 years ago and people can change (I'm just saying that, I don't fully believe it).

Hi Maggie

I wasn't thinking of surgery more that should one be passed by Jobby in the street it would be appropriate to shout "Syrup!"

Back 2005, he stood as a tory then too.

Quite right Iain should be commended for this, for actually having the get up and go to take proactive action and I said this at the time. That idiot protester was a pain in the arse and needed moving on. Of course the PC brigade were all up in arms and outraged by it as if it was some sort of major bullying incident and Iain was the bad boy. Fools.
