Once again, James, we are forced to come to you for accurate, blunt updates. Do carry on, it's a breath of fresh air. Cheers.
I'm not forced. I come here of my own volition.
The scary thing is she has no choice but to double down & push forward with this disaster of a "mini budget". To reverse it now would be a complete humiliation just 2 weeks into her premiership. The British electorate need a general election NOW.
Exactly just like they are doubling down on the sanctions on Russia even though the end-result is recession if not depression in western economies.
It’s a bit like bliar saying he’d do the same things again,aka Tony Blair they know it’s wrong but double down making it appear they are right all along

It has just occurred to me that revoking freedom of movement wasn't about keeping Europeans out but was actually about keeping British workers in - as the lot of working in Britain slides it becomes necessary to remove the option of seeking a better life else where
And they didn't need a wall to do it. Wonder when Truzz will go for her version of the Stasi? Stranger things have happened. And she's bonkers enough. I (fortunately) managed to emigrate to Australia 10 years ago. But have savings at home in the UK. Which Truzz and Kwasi have taken a flamethrower to. Absolute and utter omni shambles of a government. Let's hope she turfed and then there will absolutely have to be an election. It can't happen soon enough.
What about all those dinghies? We could use those
Spot on, remove workers and human rights and free speech and freedom to protest.... I for one would have left before the gates shut so to speak if I could have done. Leave the vile Isle to the tories but sadly were all stuck here with them.... so they have to get lost instead. Sick of em✌
yes 'take back control' and also the removal of our right to protest. protest exactly this sort of thing.
it's been planned from the beginning
There will be riots on steets worse than Poll Tax riots during Thatcherism.
It's coming because now people are finally waking up to what's happening here.
Time to halt The Great Reset.
Thankfully I’m an Australian living in a country who threw out the conservative government in May with an overwhelming sigh of relief! I don’t understand why there’s not millions out in the streets demanding an election, Now! What a disaster!

How people think conservatives are better with handling the economy is beyond me.
But Labour
Because Labour when they left office wrote a note with "there is no money left" and Brown gave all the gold away at rock bottom prices.
As Baroness Warsi said ‘Once-over whether you liked us or not we could say we were competent; now we’re hated AND incompetent.’
propaganda is mighty powerful, especially if it's consistent in its theme and is maintained over time. (and is far more powerful even than that when it goes unchallenged, as it does in the UK)
Both parties have very little impact in the economy unless directed.
I started to listen to LBC after seeing a clip of Mr. O'Brien back in March. Since then I have witnessed thee most amazing soap opera in modern history. One trolley wreck after another, all while a tsunami of denial covers the landscape and regards it all as 'a bit of fluff'. Truly amazing. It's like listening to our dear 'Collin from Portsmouth' every day. Love to the family... 😂😂😂
This is the coming from the guy who has complained about Brexit every day for the previous 5 years?
Honestly why on earth did the Tories cut taxes and allow energy companies to keep their super profits. Liz Truss and Kwazi Kateng are both grossly irresponsible.
Have you ever considered the possibility that the consequences are desired.
Because Truss worked for one energy company (Shell), and was paid off by another (wife of BP's owner donated to the party).
In australia we had the liberal party which is essentially the australian tories. They dont believe in infrastructure spending & only giving tax cuts to high income earners. They keep saying they are the best managers of the economy. No idea.
So is kwazi been thrown to the wolves already I knew it would happen but not for another few days
The Tories are deliberately crashing the economy
The reason the disaster capitalists backed brexit so heavily is they expected it to weaken the UK economy
They want the economy to crash so they can pick up assets at rock bottom prices they are economic vultures
The last week is simply the fruits of brexit strategy playing out
Truss is just a erg puppet 😎👍
I am fortunate enough to afford my own expenses, and cannot fathom why is she is making me better off whilst piling the cost on debt for our children to burden and, due to their monumental foul up, mortgage payers.
We need to kick out Crazy Kwarteng and Lost Trust, it’s time for a GE.

It's not a General Election this country needs it's revolution. Unfortunately the middle Classes see themselves as above the rest so it will never happen. There are also too many people who believe the propaganda that they need to know their place !
She's not even making you better off. The pound crashed by so much that the benefit of the tax cut has already evaporated before it even kicks in. The price of every global commodity that is priced in USD has just gone up by 10%
@@toby1248 But why is everyone so surprised given she said she will cut taxes and Sunak said he wouldn't. She's only done exactly what she said she would do. 1% reduction. Whoopee do.

Gordon Brown not only organized the world economy to cope in 2008, the independence of the Bank of England has now saved peoples pensions. He was ejected because his spend and invest mild Keynesianism was deemed to be wrong when interest rates were at an all time low and the economy needed a boost, because spending was out of control, supposedly. This has now been replaced by enormous spending to borrow at high interest rates just to cut taxes after years of hammering those on benefits and public services.
The idea that government spending was the cause of the financial crisis was one of the biggest lies ever sold to the British public. Btw, The Economist actually had a cartoon of Brown in a superhero costume because of his actions in 2008.
Actually the idea for BoE independence was down to Tony Blair .

Fabulous analysis by James O’Brien. This episode in British politics is an extinction level event for the Conservatives. Never again will they be able to claim that the economy is safe in their hands.
Have two politicians ever trashed their reputations in such a short time. Better to remain silent and be thought an idiot than to speak and remove all doubt.
Most people don’t quite realise that when the Bank of England prints money to buy government bonds, they are literally increasing inflation to fund a tax cut for the rich.
That inflation increase, is a tax on everyone. So, they’re not only decreasing taxes for the rich, they’re increasing taxes (inflation) for everyone else, to give it to the rich.
Nice one!
You are right. Something that was intended to correct the misleading, irresponsible and ridiculous government policy will turn out increasing the danger of total collapse.
Holyyyy Jesus…
I think we all realised that when inflation rocketed after covid finished and we’d printed all the money to pay furlough etc.
Accruing money supply is inflation, price increase is a consequence.
Yes, QE devalues the currency (you know that thing that Truss and her chancellor tanked).
Gilt rates went up massively which makes government borrowing much more expensive just when they went to borrow more than ever to fund the rich man's tax cut and energy cap.
This caused a massive sell off in the bond markets and almost bankrupted pension funds, you know the things regular foke pay into for old age, nothing important really).
When has a politician ever, EVER! admitted there wrong?
Especially after a week as disastrous for the UK economy we have ever witnessed.

Truss campaigned on the platform of tax cuts. She can hardly deny that stance (and cut the chancellor loose) now. No-one would believe it was all him.
I don't recall her talking about Bush's trickledown failure.
It makes you wonder: What would a party teeming with members in the top tax bracket stand to gain from voting such a person into office...
She campaigned on that to around 150,000 Tory Party members, the vast majority of whom are extremely rich, or more than rich enough to personally benefit in a very material way from it. This shouldn't have been up to them, it should have been a General Election. You can't have 150,000 people voting on someone who will have ultimate power over 70million. That should be a mandate from the masses, not the minority in an already massively bias'd group.
They are both driven by ideology so blindly that they can't take corrective action, because to do that would be to admit that their grand theories actually have errors in them...
She just publicly blamed the chancellor for the tax cuts...

It doesn't fill me with hope, that in these, perhaps the most crucial years for humanity's survival, we appear to be continuously giving power to such absolutely idiotic f**knuggets.
Well said Richard
Unfortunately mate, the ones we see and “vote” in are not the ones pulling the strings.
The Elites is not a tin foil hat conspiracy and they’re squeezing us and the earth for every last drop they can get.
maybe it is time to take back our freedom from F**knuggets
Scotland has to get out of this madhouse asap.
And Northern Ireland‽!
Yes, get out while you still can, and could you take us with you? We'll leave London and the South East to look after themselves, it's what they have been doing anyway for the past 12 years, I'm sure they won't miss us. I live in the NE of England, who, along with Yorkshire and the Midlands, bore the brunt of Maggies' hatred of manufacturing, mining and shipbuilding.
@@wolfen210959 hey that’s not fair plenty of us in the SouthEast didn’t vote Conservatives or ever will problem is th3 towns don’t but the country and villages do so we get stuffed!
Then I need to MOVE TO SCOTLAND as soon as possible!
And England. Can we just get rid of the Tories and not the Union please? They're the real problem here. Then do some election reform so a non majority vote gets you in number 10.
Don’t know why Dominic said she was as mad as a box of frogs
Never forget that this Brexit Britain and we are living the dream! 🤣 🇬🇧 Do you remember the bad old days when we were in the EU and could feed our families and heat our homes 🏡 .......Awful wasn't it!!!! 🇪🇺
Partridge interviewing Truss would be pure gold!
Lizz and her Chancellor have played Casino economics and bet the bank and the biggest tax giveaways primarily to the rich and borrowing that breaks 50 year record
@Bernard its all insider trading
They destroy everything they touch.
Yep that's right, We'll call it a Mini budget and then we don't have to get it checked by the office of fiscal responsibility.
I loved James's "Cogs whirring at a snail's pace" bit! Genius, pure genius with words! Described her perfectly.
....he was working on that all night....LBC were delighted with him....
Figures don't lie, but liars' figure.
"Where have you been the last four days?"
Pause.
"Well I'm here now"
I used to try that with my mum when I was 17
But you weren't fiddling while Rome burned ?
James just to point out the name of that comic is *The Daily Fail* .
You're welcome 🤣
Truss and her government haven’t got a clue about how the average person is supposed to get by.
Last week’s mini budget was a disaster, roll on 2 years time. We definitely need a change from this government.
Yeah Labour is not going to be a disaster
Oh they have a clue, they simply don't care
@@froggyyyy so are you actually saying your happy with what we got?
@@froggyyyy Labour will be so much better but that's not difficult.
@@Paul-eb4jp couldn't make things any worse
Get them out.
CONSERVATIVES PUT THE N IN CUTS
James please keep up the hard work
