Never watched him, though if he annoys the types like you he probably is.

People who like Nish tend to source artisan bread, have steampunk tattoo's, live in trendy East London and curate a perfectly manicured beard. And that's just the girls. :LOL:

I was trying to put my finger on why I think Lammy isn't very good and came to this conclusion: His slow and deliberate speech pattern. I can't remember the exact phrase he uses before almost every spoken sentence, it's something like "The way I see it ..." spoken very slowly so he can formulate the next sentence in his mind. This is the problem with having serving MPs as radio hosts, everything they say is scrutinised so they have to be guarded; thus you have excrutiating slow caller interactions and monologues.

This is what drives me mad about Lammy. It's a very staccato delivery which is incredibly irritating because he does it constantly. I wonder if he talks like that off air as well?

What weird views are they? They may have only been weird insofar as he wanted at job at GB News and had to pretend to be a borderline nutter.

Only that he is very religious. Then again, James and Shelagh are both religious and that doesn't dominate their shows.

He has an impressive CV apart from the GB News stint but then he got on board with that when Andrew Neil was involved and probably thought it was going to be something else. Given who GB News are currently employing I'm not surprised they let him go. Too much of a proper journalist.

Just had a quick look at the twitter feeds of the perpetually offended, O'Brien, Myska, Purkiss, Fogarty, Brand, Lammy and Devon to see if there was any comment about the disgustingly anti semitic 'cartoon' published in the Guardian (and subsequently pulled from the website)

Not a single word.

I just saw the cartoon and if all the supposed 'common anti-semetic tropes' weren't pointed-out to me I would have just thought: "Oh, it's a cartoon and it's pretty good". But yes, I agree, if it had been in the Daily Heil they would all have wet themselves. You know the only people who lose out on all this crap the meeja tit out? Us.

An example of how outlets like LBC (and its hosts) skew things was the recent 4 day climate protest that went off quite peacefully ... no coverage of it anywhere. You can bet if some idiot had glued themselves to the road Ferrari would have been frothing at the mouth and their star reporter whatshername would have gotten herself arrested again and we'd have had a week of her crying about it.

Andrew discussing this now. Looking at his work, Rowson, the cartoonist seems to share Jobbies obsessive hatred of Boris. Perhaps the recipients of his spite should do what Tory MP Lee Anderson does when he's the subject of cartoonists. He signs and frames copies and auctions them for charity when he has a meeting. He's raised over £10,000 so far. Although I don't think Anderson stirs up quite the same level of viciousness. And there's no racial element.

So amusing that Anderson is an ex coal-miner, really head-fucks Jobbie. :LOL:

Best thing that could have happened to Charlotte Lynch. I'msure she got a substantial pay rise out of it along with free counselling for her incarceration trauma no doubt.

He should get him for a Full Disclosure effort. Would be fascinating.

Perhaps they are busy trying to figure out how they can spin their past claims that Carole Cadwalladr won here court case with Arron Banks?
