I just sent this msg to Brian, I doubt it'll get read so I'll post it here. I've turned him off. His marxist-feminist narrative is too stomach-churning for me. What are your thoughts? Reasonable or out of order? Am I a misogynist? Do I read the Daily Mail? Tell me, I need to calibrate.

Msg:

Not all girls want to play football. My ex-gf hated sport and she was bullied for it at school. Eventually a spare classroom was found for her and she played chess with her friend. Of course exercise and team sports are important, but stop ramming this narrative down young girls throats who don't want to play football or who aren't 'sporty'. It actually causes acute anxiety to 'non-sporty' girls.
 
I didn't switch him off as usual because he wasn't discussing politics but still found his hectoring tones a trial. I've switched off now because it's back to the same old same old. Before I did I'm sure I heard him compare charging £10 for missed NHS appointments to bringing back hanging.
 
Braindrain Brian DOES hate women. It's clear. I have no dog in the race really, to me he's meh ... but his constant hectoring (thanks to the previous post, that's the perfect word) of Andrea Leadsom and Nadine Dorries does raise a red flag for me. Look, I don't particularly like either of those women politically, but constantly calling Nadine 'thick as mince' on national radio is pretty bleeping tit in my opinion. As I said, I don't particularly like Nadine much (from what I see and hear) but the woman worked as a nurse and is now a front-bench minister. What's James O'Brien? A pretend left-wing gobshite on commercial radio. Nadine has done far more positive things for this country than he has, that's for damn f.cking sure. One shift on a hospital ward trumps 20 years talking tit into a microphone for money imo.

I believe you are in *Stage 3 of self-evaluation.

Fear not, although it's a long *journey with your *nose at the wheel along with plenty of *heavy lifting, a day will dawn via some *blue sky thinking and you SHALL see the *Emperor's new clothes.

Nick abott tells everyone on the air that carol McGiffin's energy bill has gone down in France. But fails to mention that's because shes got solar panels and the excess is sold off to EDF so is benefiting from the price rises while not using much during the warm months 🤦‍♀️. He's really great at misleading

I turned him off when he was discussing charging for missed appointments. The problem with those discussions is that the O'Briens of this world will make every excuse under the sun as to why people legitimately miss appointments and it's not their fault, it's the governments. Today it was because the government doesn't provide enough child care and poor public transport.

There is a reason why there is a massive sign in my surgery that tells you how many missed appointments there's been in the month. It was usually 200 plus. (this was pre covid I might add - if they have 20 actual appointments a month I'd be surprised these days :rolleyes: ). I also remember being at an outpatient appointment and seeing a lady turn up at reception saying she was an interpreter for a patient. Reception said the person concerned had not shown up and they had no idea why. So not only a missed appointment but the cost of an interpreter.

Whilst there might be genuine reasons for some missed appointments there is generally no reason not to call and cancel.

As I said, I turned him off ...

He actually used that phrase last week "I think I am around....about Stage 3 of evaluating my life"
Classic midlife crisis stuff, before we know it James will have bought himself a Morgan Roadster and all his worries will be over 😁

Just just know if he worked in an office as management he'd be the one 'blue sky thinking', 'cascading information', 'reaching out' and 'touching base'

Yes and I'd be the one you read about in the Daily Mail who battered his boss to death with a computer keyboard. :ROFLMAO:

Blimey, Penny Mordant is laying it on a bit thick isn't she? Listening to her on Iain Dale you'd think Liz Truss is the second coming of Christ! LOL. To me Liz is upper management at M & S, at best. haha. No offence to anyone who is upper-management at M & S !!
