Watching in 2023, and it's still a brilliant interview!
Watching ten days later in 2024 and it's not aged at all
Farage gets owned
Watching in 2024 and enjoying seeing Farage being given his backside on a plate. However how come 9 years later Farage is still given great credibility and is even viewed by some as a potential leader and saviour of the ailing Conservative party?
Farage is upset that some of his party members are saying the quiet part out loud
Farage is correct
Omg. I am American. We NEED someone like James O'Brien here. He is AMAZING. So sharp. And gets to it like a surgeon! I don't know of anyone this skilled in our media. New fan here.
im an American too, even if we had a james o brien(sam seder, david pakman, and so many more),members of these parties would not show up on their shows to talk, it just wouldnt happen.

As likely as not you have talk radio over there. I can`t cope wiith J O`Brien on the grounds that his is a Talk show where none but him gets to talk. I listen to LBC Radio on my way to work each morning. From 7am to 10am ( I think ) it`s the Nick Farrari Show. He let`s people / callers to his show dig in - with their oppinions. James O`Brien, it seems to me, likes to `put us right` according to his own oppinions. But in all ways I love talk radio over here, since for the most part most presenters open up their show with questions... and shortly are at the answering end of pertinent questions. You must have similar radio shows over there yonder ?
In short, James O`Brian can`t shut up i his show.
vaush
I think he acts in bad faith. He doesn’t listen, nothing more than axe grinding and point scoring for a team. I would like to hear an argument on the principles.
I love interviews where Farage is actually challenged; they show what a snake oil salesman he is. When he's actually challenged, he is so fast to drop positions and change the subject if he really believed, he'd stand his ground!
He's another Boris, a public schoolboy with a confected persona. When someone actually challenges it, it slips and the nasty little man underneath it is revealed.
And Farage never has done one since.
Oh please 😂
@@user-dt3iv5oc6f So why isn't he in Britain fighting an election right now?
17:27 “Like children like your own”… spot on. That would’ve hurt.
good to see farage being interviewed by someone not desperate to be his mate for a change.
proper interviewer asking questions the bbc and other news outlets wouldn't even do and he makes them answer them and is well briefed on the questions he asks and the answers they give.a true jounalist-we need more people than ever like him to hold these politicains to account.
if you are right in what you are saying & doing Nigel you should not feel uncomfortable.
I admire these 'man of the people' millionaires.
Get a job u may one day also be rich
Why the envy?
Like those socialist billionaires 🙄
@Unknown A Google it yourself. I don't work for you. I'm not your researcher. And before you say it: I know what socialism is and so do you.
Like Jeremy Corbyn?
Finally, someone asking the right questions!!!
Wrong! Sullivan is not a Councillor, James O'Brien failed, made it up ...
Will Windsor-Clive Conservative 988 37% Elected
John Lyndon Sullivan UKIP 597 22% Not elected
Philip Howard Joseph Burford Independent 575 21% Not elected
Janet Anne Royall Labour 332 12% Not elected
David Richard Humphreys Green Party 129 5% Not elected
notrut
that is a very small point on the interview.. I love how you post with a Pseudonym! NOT
Cj Jayamaha
Small point? This is what happens, smears based on inaccurate stories.
If it was a small point why did O'Brien open with it?
He thought he had a big point.
But he didn't.
O'Brien needs to join UAF
Meanwhile on the LBC website 70%+ are voting for UKIP, go look.
***** He allowed him to answer, but Farage chose to change the subject almost every time.
Asking questions is one thing, but not letting people finish their sentences AND ignoring with a sneer the few things they barely managed to say is more than being biased. It's brat-like worst manners.
"Let me finish"
How about you let your guest finish his fucking sentences.
Farage was just filling the air with bullshit, didn't attempt to answer anything.
Left wing bigots ALWAYS over talk you so you can't get your view across.
Why let a guest finish a lie?
@@erniewild3917
What is your view on breixt now?
turns out, Farage was not anti-European but anti-British; irony of ironies...
"you know what the difference is"
when asked the difference between Romanians and a German family moving in next door.
@@dave506 dave explain your comment
@@dave506 I have to make sure my back door and shed are locked every night, and I am from and living in one of the whitest parts of England, the Wirral. 99% white British and high crime rate.
I guess it depends on what decade we are talking about. The 1940's?
Too soon?
The difference is obvious mate. The difference between a family and a large group of men isn’t hard to spot. Really simple stuff
Thats not what he was asked though, is it?
One and a half minutes in and Farage is already flailing. Pathetic.
The set up on his german speaking wife is fantastic haha
Now THAT is journalism.
I love James o'brien 🤣
Sure you do.
And he lives in Germany where he just hears foreign languages he hates. And is a immigrant himself. The irony.. ;)
So what ..whats your point ?
So we have open borders then? How’s that working out for Europe. And America 😂
What a fantastic interview that was. It was wonderful watching froggy squirm at James's questions.
lol at all the UKIP supporter excuses in the comments - just admit that your leader is a hypocrite
Actually, yes he is. Did you actually listen to the interview or did you enter a starry eyed place in your imagination at the sound of Farage's voice?
LOL - there was no attempt at insulting your lack of intelligence... you are a UKIP supporter, that is suggestive enough that you are lacking intelligence without the need of me to add insult. I was merely offering a plausible explanation as to how you misheard the interview concerning foreign languages that clearly portrays Farage as a hypocrite. Obviously, an alternative explanation to your delusion is your lack of intelligence.
Besides, nobody is arguing whether challenging UKIP's ideology helps or hinders the party... I am arguing that Farage is a hypocrite and that UKIP supporters would excuse the man of just about anything. You could catch Farage having sex with an 8 year old boy and UKIP supporters would have an excuse to deny that he was a paedo. BUT, just like Farage you are trying to win an argument by completely ignoring what is being argued.
The interviewer is first discussing people not using English on a train. There was no way for Farage to know if those people did not also speak English.
When I am in public with my spouse, I rarely use English because I don't want other people listening in to what we are discussing. It does not mean I can't speak English - I was born here and my paternal line came to this country in 865AD. I have a mix of Viking, Angle, Scot, Irish, and Norman blood - in other words I am as British as they come. I find it slightly amusing that people who come to this country and are either immigrants, or second or third generation immigrants (let's remember Farage's great grandfather came from Germany), seem to think it is fine to dictate about immigration controls and try to revive racialism in a perverted notion that they are trying to protect traditional British culture.
The interviewer also pointed out to Farage that it is a fallacy to presume that South London children at school do not also speak English as well as another language. He was pointing out that they are no different to Farage's own family. Farage's wife is German, his children are half German, they use German at home, and German is the mother tongue of his children. In other words, he is a hypocrite.
Seriously, if you have a problem with immigration into this country then why not live up to your own convictions and leave... go back to where you come from instead of trying to change a proud tradition that our isles have held. I have no problem with you being in my country, I couldn't care what language you spoke, but I do find your own hypocrisy rather irksome. After all I am assuming by your profile that you are or were Argentinian... a country that is renowned by the saying: "the Argentinians are Italians who speak Spanish, act French and wish they were British"... Hardly a base from which to criticise immigration in the UK.
I am merely pointing out the hypocrisy of your posts by using your own arguments and the arguments of many UKIP members who want to stop immigration because they feel their sense of Britishness is being eroded.
I have nothing against immigration to this country. I welcome it. It is not me that is espousing the proud tradition of these isles - re-read what I wrote. I think that culture is like language, it is constantly evolving and when it becomes static it has a habit of dieing out. When different cultures meet, it is best to embrace the best bits and forge ahead with a new culture. I welcome the merging of cultures into new cultures not the attempt to protect an illusion of tradition and not an attempt to integrate people into that illusion. There is no and has never been a singular British or even English identity. We are too regional.
Not everywhere in the UK is subject to the pressures of immigration. Where I live they are closing schools and hospitals because there are not enough people to keep them economically viable. We are losing people from my region of the UK because of a lack of investment and they are moving to the South East in search of work. The problems that the South East is facing is as much to do with the domestic population migrating there in search of work as it is to do with immigration. As much as a London based media would like you to believe, you can't take the problems unique to the South East of England and apply it to the rest of the UK.
If you count the number of people who have left the UK since the 18th century to present day and compare it to the number of people who have come into the UK during that time period - the figures are almost exactly the same. The problem is two-fold - first population distribution - we have a concentration in the South East while other areas of the UK are sparse (this is linked with regional investment - or lack of).... second, our population has risen because of improved hygiene and living standards meaning people are living longer. You need only go back to the generation that experienced WWII to a time where the majority of people had either lost or knew someone who had lost a child to sickness. Now it is almost unheard of... it is a rare enough occurrence that the majority of people do not personally know someone who has lost a child to sickness (of course it still happens but not as often). Population increase has more to do with domestic living standards than it does with immigration.
...and yet, here you are 'wasting' your time.
In order to listen with intent you must first listen.
German wife and children who carry German passports and who speak German...
And?
@@siypic boy, you're dense, aren't you... go figure.
And he lives in Germany where he just hears foreign languages he hates. And is a immigrant himself. The irony.. ;)
James O'Brien is the quintessential radio host legend.
Yes he is. My favourite anti-propagandist
Just a local Radio bully ,there are too many of them in the U.K. media ?.
James O'Brien is obviously a perfect human being.

😂😂
@@waynesharp8999Farage cancelled by the Big Brother Banks
Brilliant exposure of the true far right nature and background of Mr Farage.
"Some of my best friends..."
LMAO!
This was masterful journalism, this should be the bare minimum political journalism should be. Farage has had an easy ride with the media and it is time he faced some robust questioning. Those railing against this, saying it was stitch up etc, get a grip. If the man can not hold his own and face tough questioning then he is not fit to be a representative of the people. This interview showed what a ram shackle outfit UKIP is, with their story changing everyday of the week. And his director of communications bursting into the studio has absolutely damaged Farage's credibility.
I totally agree
well said
*****
more dangerous than????let,s say Harriet Harman(links to PIE) or Iain Duncan Smith??...(labour 25)!!!!????....Give him a chance!!!!!...... The other lot who have messed up time and time again?
TheSoundzUK I'm no raging leftie friend. My comment was mostly directed towards the standard of journalism, which has become so soft touch with our politicians. I lodge the same criticism towards all party leaders. But Farage cannot answer by saying "I don't Know." or "I've never heard of this person." That makes him look incompetent and a poor leader. But I say it again, he deserved this robust questioning, his parties shambolic policies etc have not been properly challenged until this interview. As for this Cyril smith, Harman business, that is desperate rubbish. These things took place years ago, they have no relevance to Farage being a competent individual, or the racist remarks by supporters and members of his party, which have occurred in the last few weeks. There are racists, bigots homophobes etc in every party and in every section of our society, so the idiocy of UKIP is nothing new in this country.
My point is, if Farage cannot take a bruising without his party's spin doctors (what was that about him not being a member of the political establishment?) bursting in and shutting down scrutiny, then he is not fit to represent anybody, whether in Europe, Westminster or in some position of power.
Leigh Douglas well what u say there mean no one is fit on politics full stop,so what is your political beliefs?
I'm no fan of Farage or UKIP, but how about we actually just question him on his policies instead?
F + 2 policies? What policies has farage ever mentioned? Do you know any ?
Farage has no policies 😂😂
James O'Brien Whose Voice goes through. me Is an arrogant Patronising, rude, obnoxious Idiot. He not as clever as he thinks he is. If he had his way This country would Swamped with Illegal immigrants.None of which he would want to live next door to. Hypocrite.
I clearly did that, are you a bigot?
Because you can list Nigel Farage's policies in the same amount of time it would take you to throw up in a room full of vomiting people. "The EU is to blame for (insert reason here)". That's it.
Nigel’s first move is a whataboutism, of course!
A seminal interview for the ages. Here was our Brexit warning alarm.
Only one patriot in this interview and it wasn't F*rage.
Notice that James O Brien always interrupts the answer to the question he gives. This is a standard tactic of a left wing journalist.
Eamonn Evans its because the man isn’t answering...
@@visionlandmusic james o'brien was born same some as myself january 1972, he is generation x, and i agree, a nasty unpleasant fellow . peace to you
absolute nonsense - WAKE UP TO WHAT IS HAPPENING TO YOUR COUNTRYT!!!!
@@visionlandmusic If you think he's a) a millennial or b) a Marxist I'd suggest you don't understand what either of these things are.
lol O Brien was proven 1000% right on Brexit and Farage. All the "brexiteers" look like utter fools.
Beautifully done!
This is why nobody in Government wants to be interviewed by James. They go straight to the tame interviewer Nick F.
It would be far better if he actually let Nigel answer questions fully and wasn't so judgmental. The personal comments about his kids were OTT.
Just show what kind of Man O'Brian is, Look at his attitude toward Frank Lampard a few years ago..
"I do not understand how financial institutions work" says James O'Brien. Maybe you should not be asking questions when you do not understand them or the answers.
1 in 7 primary school children do not speak English until they go to school.
Speaking English is essential to enable people in this country to communicate and integrate.
In a modern globalised world, it is simply a fallacy to suggest that it is completely and entirely necessary to learn the mother language of a country. There are 5.5 MILLION ex-pat Britons living in foreign countries, many of which neither bother, or unable to speak the language of the country they reside in...do you hold the same reactionary views about their 'refusals to integrate' within their given social and cultural establishments? There is no evidential proof which directly shows that it is necessary to learn the language of the country you are living in. It helps, but to castigate young people for not knowing the language should not be a primary criticism lobbied at the state, there are FAR MORE pressing concerns.
If those 1 in 7 children don't speak English when they start school at the age of SIX. they will most definitely speak English by the ages of Eight. Which will then enable them to communicate and integrate. Speaking of children ages six not being able to integrate and communicate is ridiculous. Kids aged six BARELY need to speak in order to communicate and integrate . Stop arguing about petty subjects and just say that you don't like speakers of languages other than English. You want English only speakers at schools, like yourself.
7 in 7 children do not speak English before they can talk. Bloody kids...
Hamza Abokar
about 1 million people born abroad but living in this country have little or no ability in speaking English. It is a serious issue which prevents people from integrating and severely hinders them in our society.
Jack McSweeney
What utter nonsense, of course it is critically important for people wanting to settle in this country to be able to speak English. Most of the ex-pat Brits living abroad *live in countries who already speak English!*
Most of the rest live in countries where English is the second language known by most of the population of that country.
I don't mind racial stereotyping, people think because I'm Japanese I'm good at math and Karate
Different from people thinking you have a knife in your pocket and plan to carry out a terrorist attack.
Swurvin Media yes and there are reasons behind this. When there are groups that do have few members that wake up in the morning and are willing to blow up the bus, this makes the irrational fear of said group quite rational
Looking back after two years into the catastrophe Nigel and others have caused this Interview looks even more realistic.
“Catastrophe” ?
@@davidpryle3935 take back control of the border? fisherman? Free trade agreements? …….not sure but to me it seems not even on the way after all these years. Can be wrong though and we just have to wait another 7 years.
Interviewer is biased. He already formed his opinion before conducting the interview.
O brien hates anyone who is slightly right of Lenin
Wow what an revealing interview by James O'Brien. Asked some logical questions to Nigel Farage who shows his hypocrisy. Being someone who dislikes all politicians and has no dog in this fight, I cannot see how anyone can criticise O'Brien with his line of questioning. Clearly it shows the hypocrisy of Farage let alone revealing his xenophobia and stereotyping.
"I'm very suspicious of the word audit used in that way"...what? used in relation to expenses and checking how money was spent? that's what an audit is Nigel, that's how everyone uses that word
11:06 " If you'd let me finish "....Oh the irony.
Annoying isn't it james.....
Exactly....he was saving his career
@@dotmatrix01 who was saving their career?

@@dotmatrix01 I'm not brain dead enough to use the internet. People have different takes on the same thing. Not sure if you knew that.
Haha, I can almost taste Farages sweat, though I wish he was allowed to talk without interruption, as much as I disagree with him, he should be allowed to express himself
Why? At that time he was leader of a political party, on BBC QT every week and able to shoot his mouth off everywhere he cared to. He needed to have his feet held to the fire.
@@neilbowen6930 nonsense surely you believe what you are saying we all know james is biased
Cause James doesn't let people speak. Should be fired
Farage doesn’t come over as someone you would want to do business with. A bit too smooth and “ not me gov “ for my liking .
You clearly only do business with your carer.
Exactly the way Farage should be made to answer for his self centered racist policies. The idiocy of his defenders reflects the stupidity of those targeted to be potential UKIP supporters.
This was NOT an interview. Constant interruptions, manipulative twisting of words. The issue about speaking in different languages is that you don't know what people are saying. People also feel uncomfortable when people whisper. To me other languages don't make me uncomfortable but it's unfair to brand people as racist for this. He then tries to define racism which is perfectly acceptable, people define terms all the time in debates in order to make sure they're on the right page and this "interviewer" cheaply uses it to avoid defining it (makes it harder to twist peoples' words then) and implies that Nigel doesn't know what racism is. Depressingly pathetic standards of journalism. It's ok to have an issue with Nigel but don't take the 16 year old school boy bully routine.

O'Brien is actually pure comedy
He certainly is a clown 🤡
Well done James, you ripped that mendacious prat a new one. He was stuttering throughout and could hardly string a coherent sentence together. James O'Brien went into that interview fully informed with factual inform and took him on. Strange we don't see Farage subjected to this on the visual medium of television. I wonder why??
BULLSHITTER - GET A LIFE - YOU LOWLIFE.
You are deluded he never listened you may not agree with him but listening is the first entry of debate james is a clown when she was interviewing jess Phillips he listened because he agreed with her
He was very well prepared for what he presented as an "off the cuff" / spontaneous interview. Not premeditated at all.
James O'Brian you are whats wrong with this country...we want Britain to become British again..simple..
OMG James! I am just reading your book and just had to put it down to watch this first for real context. This interview is conflictingly hilarious, both sad at the state of our nation but comical at how quick you were and how pathetic his responses were. This is like Yes Minister live on air, pure gold.
"What is racism? Is racism between races....?"
"Don't you know? How can you say you're not something if you don't know what it is?"
Beautiful.
No he’s asking James O’Brien what he defies as racism because he is blatantly using the term out of context.
Seemed to me that everytime Nigel Farage had a legitimiate response to a question, the interviewer just found another bucket to slime to throw over him - one which was totally disconnected to the previous question.
Sometimes I really wonder if I’ve seen a different video to those in the comments. Imagine watching this and thinking Farage made a legitimate response... Nigel Farage wouldn’t know a legitimate response if it rode in on a unicorn branded with “brexit my brexit” and then proceeded to ride Farage’s like the main event at a rodeo!
"Hopefully, lot's of people can speak different languages". But if they speak those languages on a train he feels uncomfortable, but he says he doesn't object to it. But, because he doesn't object, just uncomfortable, he raises it on a national platform as a complaint, and his children don't have english as a first language, but he doesn't mind if they speak German at home, but does mind if someone else has english as a 2nd language, but then hopes lots of people can speak different languages.
If you're feeling dizzy at this point then that's understandable.
This kind of "journalism" is about as "impartial" as the BBC or Channel 4. I expected better from the LBC.
Just because you dont like the truth doesn't make it lies.
It's the other way around: BBC is famously bias towards right-wing propaganda.
@@oberon5657 "BBC is famously bias towards right-wing propaganda." Looool. nice joke
I know Nigel went to a Public School (= private, fee-paying school) but I wonder if his parents are now thinking it was a real waste of money? Not the sharpest pencil in the pencil case.
Yes lad he ain’t the sharpest pencil in the case. He’s the pen a more advanced permanent and relevant idea
I think the vast majority of people agree, whatever they may think of his politics, that Farage is far from lacking in wits. He is an extremely effective political communicator, and his political success kind of flat-out refutes the ideal that he is dim. That's why you don't hear that charge being made very much.
James O'Brien on the other hand conducts interviews like a narrow-minded, petulant child.
@@cheekybum6136 And you're an idiot.
@@grimawormtongue1949 Hahahahahhaha!!!!! You're funny cos you're an idiot - typical of the Right wing. What nationality is Farage's ex-wife again?
If he’s an idiot and he beat you in 2016
What does that make you?
You guys were ineffectual against ‘an idiot.’
Maybe if you didn’t assume
all the people who disagree with you are idiots, and you took them seriously. You might be more effective at beating them in elections.
If you want to win the debates and therefore win the hearts and minds of the floating voters that you need. maybe you shouldn’t act so superior, maybe people find that off putting.
Maybe people want leaders that can understand their opponents motivations. Treat their opponents with respect.
Remember there’s pride and there’s humility.........one is a vice and one is a virtue.
You’re a doughnut.
He deflects and what aboutism.🤣the irony
This interview was sooooooooo funny. LOL. Definitely Monty Python aspects to it.
James O'Brien is indeed a national treasure, hope he gets the Newsnight gig.
Perhaps you should try lying down in a dark room for a couple of days.
MartinPadderborn he got the newsnight gig...for a few days in august
D RM I don't have a TV as I got rid of it due to the constant barrage of loony left propaganda by the BBC. I listen to LBC mainly for the news and normally turn O'Brien off when he starts his usual nonsense. I know that one shouldn't mock the afflicted but O'Brien's manic and increasingly weird presentation has become laughable to the point that yesterday, after praising the idiotic Russell Brand ( they were bound to coalesce at some point), he actually tried to do an impersonation of Brand and,sure enough, I couldn't tell the difference.
John Lyndon Sullivan is NOT a councillor. Do your research properly.
+superbalamory100 He probably knew that. Notice the sneaky language of "i think he is already on the council" to make it look like he was not trying to lie.

Iazzaboyce Farage wasn't the only one who was campaigning for leave, your stupid if u think that
Ciaranod zero eight
I remember now, but he was the one person that made the referendum happen. A lot of people tried for a lot of years, but political experts accept that Nigel Farage ended the UK's EU membership. It's time people realised he is the UK's most consequential politician. He basically trashed the legacy of the last eight prime ministers and their governments ;o)
Iazzaboyce saying it was just Farage is stupid, plenty of MPs wanted to leave as well. Anyway Britain and America are both turning into toxic xenophobic nightmares and there's nothing we can do about it, and Farage has helped cause it purely to satisfy his personal racist agenda and grudge against the EU
MR O'BRIEN,COME AND SPEND A WEEKEND IN CHATHAM KENT WHERE I LIVE AND YOU WILL SEE WHY SO MANY AGREE WITH NIGEL
I think your caps lock is STUCK.
Horrible place full of bitter types like fartage

8 years later still enjoying it
And 9 years.
Not seen this before. What an unexpected treat to see the mendacious strawman wriggling, courtesy of O'Brien.

Yer surname is French Richard. x :)
Indeed I'm a Norman Viking. French, Sweetish, Norwegian and even Irish Celtic is in my dna.. Ive had my dna tested. My ancestors came here from France in the Norman battle of Hastings. But that information still does not excuse economic migration ruining any country. Any sort of invasion of sacred soil is inexcusable. Also that said, does not turn me in to a immigrant lover, whom currently have turned my capitol city in to a foreign ghetto. 87% are now immigrants in London which is a disgrace.....

Never had Farage been barraged in an interview. He usually owns everyone. James is class!
ukip/farage mugs !
lol at James sulking towards the end. All because he couldn't get the better of Nigel 😂
Imagine any other country that say oh they spoke english on the bus i am very uncomfortable with that. They should not speak english and only come to our country if they are well educated. How many british born people in the uk speak a second language does this show the education system in the uk is poor.
The interviewer doesn't even let Nigel speak.
James thinks he was Jeremy Paxman here, Paxman respected Farage far more than this when he interviewed him. O'Brien has no idea of business and its uncomfortable to me that HE associates normal people with not being in business? As he said in the video. Many personal attacks irrelevant to UKIP's policies and didn't give Nigel any chance to answer properly. He was unnecessarily rude and taking vague comments made by Farage as on-the-face literal policy indicators. I believe Thatcher said that when someone resorts to personal references they've ran out of political arguments. Nigel's stance on EU is still barely refuted and has no hope of being by shoddy interrogators like this. I've often admired some of what James has said on BBC Big Questions etc. but clearly he has a very basic leftist liberal approach to politics and zero understanding of proper business and economics………as if he or anyone else will ask the other parties questions on expenses and its members.
Farage doesn't deserve respect.
Farage only talks about nationalism. Hitler only talked about nationalism, too. It will all end in tears. The comment about Romanians living next door was rather blatant and should set alarm bells ringing. It is not racism, it's xenophobia.
Let someone answer a bloody question O'brien, get him OFF L. B. C... THE PILLOCK
Dave is your real name Nigel ?
go get 'em James
Well that was awesome.
i think, NF showed himself for what he is by saying he feels uncomfortable in a public place when people speak other languages. That is beyond argument. I was in poland in a bar and we got into a big bar fight simply cause a drunk polish musclehead didn't like to hear people speak english and he punched the guy who did. I hope all you bigots will find yourself in this situation one day as british tourist are not usually very good in integrating abroad language wise or else. Remember: we are all foreigners somewhere or sometimes in our lives. Wake up.
James O'Brien needs a healthy injection of intellectual honesty. It's his knee jerk bigotry that stops us having an actual conversation and lo and behold we've now got brexit.
17:30 'some of my best friends', HAHA such an awesome response!
james O' Brien just want you to know he has black friends diane abbott....lol
I wonder how much shit you could find about the interviewer if you dug a little.
***** Well that would be remarkable indeed , I might ask how you would define a decent human being ? I think we all are even the likes of Farage and Tony Blair . Just because they have different opinions from you does not make them Good or bad human beings,
***** And you are an expert on such things that obvious by your rhetoric .
Honi soit qui mal y pense .
The interviewer isn't standing for election.
what a fucking moronic comment. none of us care if the interviewer has dirt on him. hes not trying to run for the leading position of our country.
farage is standing up for the KKK, anti-muslem, anti-human rights. i'm sorry but he's an absolute idiot! Also LOL Tony Blair started an illegal war? how can u say he's a decent person? He illegally invaded a country and killed thousands, Millions of people over the course of several years!
Here's the key problem with UKIP. In the last 10 years the population has risen by 0.7% per year. That's a high figure because UKIP bases its policies on the 'unprecedented' immigration. Of this immigration makes up 0.39% of the total population rise.
Quantitatively this has no impact on the UK whatsoever, because 0.39% per year over a human lifetime (of 70 years) means that public services, housing, food, water, energy supplies and healthcare will only have to rise by 1.31 times the amount they are now. If we solve the oil crisis (which we won't do by voting for UKIP because they don't believe in peak oil or climate change) we'll easily deal with this miniscule rise.
If the population was going up by 2% the growth rate by 2085 (70 years away) would be 4 times the resources; if by 3% it would be 8 times, and if 4% it would be 16 times by 2085. In other words if the figure of the rise is below 2% you can consider it negligible.
Thus the basis for pulling out of Europe and stopping immigration is without any FACTUAL basis.
Vote Green. We also want a Referendum. Our policies are based on science not BULLSHIT.
Why on earth would anyone vote for Green Party just to be taxed at 60 percent because they make money.
@@humanchannel7825 how on earth can you be anti tax and a Tory voter? The conservatives are the party of tax hikes and spending decreases.
In 1952 German Liz became Queen of England and took a solemn coronation oath to ‘Govern the peoples of the British Isles…..according to their respective laws and customs’. Liz reneged on that oath and has allowed the Royal Assent to be given to six EU treaties. We are now governed by the laws and customs of a foreign power in Brussels. Treason has been committed. Our constitution implies that foreign laws and customs in our country should be discriminated against in favour of our own. This is the acceptable face of racism because, in any country, it would keep the peace and help prevent overpopulation. To discriminate out of hatred or against someone’s colour of skin is the unacceptable face of racism. The Truth is always dual. Racism is good, racism is bad. Help Nigel return our own exclusive laws and customs to us.
I heard that the PM at the time was blackmailed by German intelligence to sign up. Ted Heath.
It's like an argument with a woman....you can't get a word in edgeways
And every word you do get in, is somehow wrong.
I think James O' Bigot is on the blob!?
James makes my skin crawl man
Then don't listen to him, man.
Nigel is far too polite to this jerk.
Farage was constantly badgered. He's not a racist he's too intelligent to have a conversation with this O'Brien.
Says it all. How can anyone take this party seriously?
Hello from the future, you're not gonna believe what comes next
9 years ago. How was it that we didnt realise then just how dangerous he was then and is now. How is it that like now, nothing was done to deal with him and his vety dangerous and poisonous views. We keep aaying the phrase " Lessons to be learned " . Actually we don't learn and haven't learned anything.
Nigel, you hypocrat...unbelievable...practise what you preach man. When are u sending your kids away bcz they might speak German on a train??
"Some of my best friends are black, so i cant be racist"
I don't want to give the impression that I've anything personal against James O'Brien but I simply had to tune in to his radio slot today after Ukip's win in Rochester and Strood, and there he was moaning about somebody having English/British flags on display outside their home. He pretended that he wasn't offended by the actual flags but that they were made of polyester and one displayed a football team logo: talk about disingenuous. It's a fair bet that he hates any sign of Englishness and Britishness but if they had been the flags of Zimbabwe or the West Indies, he would have been all in favour regardless of what they were made of.
I switched him off and a couple of hours later, switched on to get the news and this time ( surprise, surprise) he was banging on about Ukip: gone was the phony James jollyness and he was back in disgruntled mode calling Ukip, among other things, a pantomime party. Well Mr O'Brien, few things could be more of a pantomime than a party that promises a referendum in 2017 even though they could well be out of office by then...unless it be your own increasingly neurotic hatred of a party that actually grows in strength every time you seek to undermine it.
The irksome leftie O'Brian is miffed because his mud slinging is having no effect on UKIP his acidic attacks are highlighting his hatred for our culture ~ like most Libturds he wants to dilute our way of life so it's unrecognisable ~ luckily the voters see through his facade.
***** They already have made it unrecognisable or, to Anglicise a well-known Latin inscription: 'If you seek their legacy, look around you.'
I turned on the radio this morning and there was the whining whinger waffling on about skin colour: you really couldn't make it up. The man is obviously mentally unbalanced.
WHO WANTS TO SEE A BRITISH PATRIOT PENSIONER ex soldier who fought communism BEAT THE LIVING SHITS OUT OF THIS BULLSHITTER Obrien IN THE CAGE
It would be really helpful if every party leader was subjected to an O'Brien questioning. Farage came across as a total empty opportunist.
Well here we are, James talked about this on his show today and here i am. Lets see when the publicist turns up to drag Farage out.
I like that his hand movements are like he’s trying to use the force to trick O’Brien into believing he’s got a clue what he’s talking about…like the galaxy’s most moronic Sith Lord Darth Moronicus
James O'Brien to replace Paxman on Newsnight.
why because James is a bigoted mindless twat.
P Galway that's what you got from this interview?
yes James just constantly interrupted and was intolerant of any opposing viewpoint and acted like a baby, now I know its okay for fascist labourites like yourself but the rest of us want to live in a democracy.
P Galway He's not bigoted or mindless in any way but he is biased.
he's totally bigoted because he doesn't tolerate any differing opinion from his cultural marxism faith and he's mindless because he responds like a spoiled child when he's proven wrong and he asks not to be interrupted at one stage, even though he interrupts Nigel constantly, you need to wake up my dear.
James O'Brien absolutely destroyed Farage in this interview.
Bollocks, all he did was expose himself as the ignorant bigot he is, and I'm talking about James O'Brien.
15:00
"Oh, you know what the difference is."
What an obvious dogwhistle.
O'Brien loves to belittle anyone who has a different opinion to him. He's the one who is intolerant and Farage, although is no saint is not a racist, if he was he wouldn't have a show on LBC 4 nights a week where he actually understands other people's point of view. O'Brien I believe has a good heart but is so self righteous you can never have a sensible debate with him.
James O'Brien, the multi cultural saviour of this country, lives in Chiswick, the most 'white' borough in London. Funny that. Go and live in Tower hamlets for a few years, and let's see if you feel the same way. Better still, go and live in some of the cities up north where the demographic has changed to such a degree that they are no longer recognisable as English cities. This man makes my blood boil.
Nice comment, I completely agree, he would get his eyes opened within a couple of weeks of living in other parts of London and/ or up north.
so it james fault he was adopted by a middle class white family! also im in liverpool and we are doing fine, infact our city is not recognisable due to all the EU investment and being a multicultural hub.
And take Russel brand
I live in the North and 95% of my village is white. So to say we have no British identity is preposterous.
Even with this level of scrutiny which Farage clearly cannot handle, people are still voting for UKIP. Unbelievable!
Probably because it is the only party that can stop EU.
Marek Fořt What do you mean 'stop EU'. Firstly, that makes no sense. Secondly is there any evidence to suggest Farage can stop the EU?
Apart from him saying he can, I can't see any.
Remember when there was a massive Hoo Haa about the Romanians and Bulgarians TAKKIN OURR JAABS? UKIP promised us that there would be 29,000,000 people coming to the UK, THERE ARENT EVEN 29,000,000 people in Romania and Bulgaria (The exact figure as of 2012 is 27,304,566). In fact, as of figures released 2 days ago, there are 4000 LESS Romanians and Bulgarians working in Britain.
EVEN WITH THIS LEVEL OF SCRUTINY, PEOPLE ARE STILL VOTING FOR UKIP.
1) It makes sense. I mean, EU is doign a lot of harm to the countries, so it'd be good to be out.
2) Well, he actually can't because all of this depends on the referendum. But he's "Anti-EU", so at least he would be a good opposition in EP.
If I'm not mistaken, they didn't mean only people from Romania and Bulgaria, did they?
Marek Fořt
UKIP poster.. politicalscrapbook.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/ukip-bulgaria-romania-leaflet.jpg
Oh, but they're not saying that 29 million of these people will come to the UK. There is said "will be allowed". So the statement is right if we take into account that Romanians and Bulgarians live also in other countries.
can he stop interrupting all the time, I hate that kind of interviewer, that thinks being a hard hitting journalist means just racking up attacks and try to disrupt every answer thats given.
god, let him talk. you ask him a question and you keep talking. James hated him from the start of the interview. pointless.
