James O'Brien's Best LBC Moments 2019 | Best of 2019

[@FinnieMc]

I absolutely love the "it's a negotiation so they have to give in to all our demands because that's called a compromise" logic.

[@TheBerkeleyBeauty]

@Eli OberoN - Yup. Petulant children, just like tRump. 🙄

[@mattylamb9194]

That's not what he said. He said that they were negotiating, but there didn;t have to be a successful outcome to the negotiations. Which is what negotiations should be - prepared to compromise on some things but not on some other things. He said that an agreement would have been best, but that the UK should not be scared to ultimately walk away from the negotiations if the two sides couldn't reach an agreement on key terms

[@AtillatheFun]

@@mattylamb9194 That is not a proper way too negotiate. There are classes in uni that teach people how to negotiate in business. The goal is to compromise in some ways. That's what a negotiation is.

You should just be honest that you care more about personal economic welfare than the complete freedom to pass any law that suits the whim of the English people.

So, channelling JOB, what specifically do you dislike about him? Is it the way he asks really basic questions that should have equally basic answers, but are so often answered with gibberish?

[@newdawnforall6264]

Sarcastic, snarkey side remarks no meant to be heard by the person he's interviewing, impatience, interrupting rudely and constantly, sarcastic, sighing at every opportunity. He is no interested in truth, he is playing 'gotcha'.

[@bluetonic99]

If you ask a question and then say its a simple yes or no answer without allowing who you are asking to explain why it isn't as simple as that, but when he tries to explain and is spoken over with JOB shouting "it's yes or no!" , and most other points aren't allowed to be completed because JOB is too concerned about being right on his radio but not concerned about understanding why he is wrong (or at least why his guest thinks he's wrong).

[@dannyhoward6690]

I can't stand the way he'll make a claim, not knowing whether it's true or not, as long as it suits his narrative... Then when challanged and told he's wrong he quickly changes subject. See his call with Sammy on Trumps Travel ban for proof.

A quote that will always stick with me around the 32min mark is "Do you see the schools and health service any better" Yes, because I used to work in schools just after brexit had passed. My job was EU Funded. Most of the IT systems in the schools in Northumberland were IT funded. The planned upgrades in some of them were also EU subsidised. The milk was also EU subsidised. Not back to when I was working there, teachers and management staff were absolutely bricking it, that they'll not be able to afford replacement computers, ipads, that apprenticeships to get people into teaching and into schools to help kids get a better education that I would've loved to have had when I was that age. Now years and years on from that, I don't know what's happened with the schools, because I lost my job because it wasn't going to continue with funding. So yes, schools were better off when we were in the EU.
