I guess we’re not alone in the US in having an epidemic of folks who are ridiculously easy to fool into thinking literally anything.
This is what happens when you say "I love the poorly uneducated"
Yeah here in Germany they believe the Weimar Republics constitution from 1919 is still in effect and the German state is an "illegal corporation" lead by "the elites in the corrupt EU" everything else is "Fake News" or "Lügenpresse" . In the end I think a lot of it is started/fired up by russian propaganda, Trump us Putin's biggest hope after all .
Ain’t that the truth. Trump fans for one
Mmm ? No . I think the U.S. are the un-disputed world champions , but we are trying hard to get the title .
@@hughmacfarlane9662 honestly, I think us in the US, you guys in the UK, and Australia, all all in a dead heat. And I blame Murdoch and all the new Hearsts like him. May they all enjoy their fiery eternal rewards.

This guy undoubtedly went down the pub that night and bragged that he put James in his place. Ignorance really is bliss.
Russian internet propaganda farms made brexit possible. Half of brexit votes was based on information propagated by internet "truth seekers" . Just search "Russian web brigades" and you will know
Ignorance is bliss, you're having a bit of a job with your English mate.

Well as a Brexit voter I wanted Brexit. Unfortunately we never got it.
@@rfurdaylee Jesus wept..are we a member of the EU or not?
@jimbob4217 No we are not. We voted to leave in 2016. We won the vote ( to leave) but, unfortunately, due to Boris Johnson, we got a bad deal, so it's become Brexit in name only.

I don't know about small gap, this guy has a large empty space where his brain should be😢
I have heard that British people are polite. But I would never think how far your politeness can go. My greatest respect to James.
Yes, because all people in Britain are the same
@@wfifa199 you are.
@@wfifa199Are you trying to point out that there might be British people who aren't polite? That's probably true, but it doesn't contribute anything to the OC, does it?
James O'Brien is an Irish name.
"We never sold cars in the single market" - in 2019 51% of UK-manufactured cars were exported to the EU
"Germany failed to support Ukraine" - Germany's humanitarian aid to Ukraine has been nearly 10 times that of the UK, including accepting over 1 million refugees
Those Ukrainian refugees being coders, mathematicians, nuclear scientists, doctors, etc... I hope they get back to their country once there is peace but it's the type of brain drain that cements an economic lead for decades if they stay and integrate into the economy. That UK is not even equipped or prepared because in a moment of a labour shortage they call asylum and refugee seekers invaders has got to be top shelf economic self sabotage. This guy distrusts leaders for their incompetence then proceeds to vote for the very same people he just called incompetent without the slightest hint of irony.
When you argue with an idiot, they will win, they have had more practice. What scares me is he is a coach driver, he transports people and cant even seem to focus on a single thing.
And if UK didn't support Ukraine, UK would be "weak like Germany." 🤦🏼♂️
You beat me to it! Just one more observation" How would this caller react to a million refugees arriving on UK soil? Yeah, didn't think so. So much for "supporting Ukraine".
If you really want to upset a Brexiteer, using facts and accurate statistics is a great way to do it!
Remember, this caller is allowed to drive.
And vote, which is precisely why we are were we are now
...and drive a coach at that!!!
I'm walking everywhere from now on.
He's allowed to breed and vote, which is more worrying
Yes and a bus as well, must have been the driver on Boris's big red brexit bus.
This looks so depressive. People who cannot accept they made a mistake.
Holy heck! As a coach driver that guy must have had a lot of experience driving people around the bend. Imagine being stuck with that on a long trip. It’s very much like the UK’s contribution to the European Parliament: largely vacuous and abusive. As a European citizen I’m enormously relieved we no longer have to put up with it.
Of course, he is like a lot of my arrogant fellow Englishmen. The: "We won two World Wars and saved all of Europe!! They owe us!!" type mentality. That attitude drove Brexit in a lot of English. Arrogant exceptionalism. I am afraid we will have to go through a lot more hardship until it is whipped out of us.
@@leod-sigefast the US bailed Britain out of these wars.
In a few years people like this man will be saying, 'Why did the EU _let_ us leave if they knew all this would happen?' with a completely straight face.
don't give ideas for daily mail's headlines ...

Very scary but depressingly true .
@@OrontesRM In a few years I expect the headline in the Daily Heil "UK was forced out of the EU"
I doubt it hahaha
I wouldn't trust Andy to run the hot tap to be honest...
😂😂😂
As an aside, it freaked me out when I discovered that you have separate taps for hot and cold water.
Clearly you must be so dumb yourself to need somebody else to run the hot tap. Which makes Andy better than yourself, considering that he does not need to ask somebody else to run the hot tap.
Andy is responsible for a big heavy coach on public roads. Anyone else terrified?
Brexit was the largest most successful rage farming operation ever to occur. They riled people up about the bogeyman EU, using pithy easily digestible slogans. And when people are angry, they don't stop and look for facts. And Andy is the poster boy of that.
I highly respect how calm he stayed during this conversation.

I feel the cheap name calling and degrading of this individual is the cause of the remain side losing the vote.
"I didn't expect to be on here"
"Did we ring you, sorry mate" 🤣
"The unelected dictatorship of the EU" As an outsider looking in having developed an interest in British politics Post 2016 to understand what drove the madness of Brexit, that comment is straight out of the Mail/Express playbook, The British press really is vile
The EU is based on ignoring referendums. Every single referendum that has gone against EU interests has been ignored. In Denmark, the Netherlands, France, Greece, twice in Ireland. Anti-democratic eurotrash don’t like losing some of their privileges. Tough.
Yeah and if you see that it comes from a country that has a king and a chamber of unelected Lords.

He should be the next Tory leader.
the problem with this caller is he doesn't know how to connect 2 things together logically. in his mind he's just blamed problems on something but he cannot logically connect the problem with the cause through any kind of evidence. he "thinks" it's self evident because he just believes it.
I am honestly impressed by the patience of the host. He gave him ample opportunity to express himself. He simply asked him questions. Answers are apparently realy complicated if you only have accusations.
This caller is the proof that one can get through life without being able to think.
And that basic IQ tests should be required for people to vote.

That was painful to listen to. Great respect for James O'Brian for braving through this and still managing to be this polite.
It truly is as the saying goes: "It's easier to fool people than it is to convince people that they have been fooled."
I sell health and products internationally from the UK, and since leaving the EU, it's now more costly, and slower, to send a parcel to France than it is to Australia. Utter madness!
Well done to James O'Brien for keeping his cool when confronted with this call.
I notice James sometimes confuses the terms, free trade, custom union & single market. They're not the same, each one is a term to describe deeper stages of economic integration ending with fiscal union. The UK has a free trade agreement with the EU but the reason it can not engage in friction less economic exchange it once had is because we left the 3rd stage of economic integration, the single market.
Well don to Andy for keeping his cool when confronted by the vile propagandist O'Brien spewing forth such lies and hatred.
@@AB-zl4nh he literally told the caller that the UK has a free trade agreement with the EU, ie the withdrawal agreement, at which point the caller contradicted his original claim by mourning the fact that this free trade agreement is strictly worse for the UK than the free trade terms the UK had when in the EU.
So I’m pretty sure you’re mistaken about Brien being mistaken, even if occasionally he might misspeak in a 3 hour daily radio show.
Your having a laugh.,😎
John 259 O'Brien kept his cool to keep his job
I'm sure that guy got off the phone and said to himself "Nailed it"
😂
Nailed his feet to the floor difficult to jog on.
I'm sure I recognise his voice.
I think he keeps ringing in.
And he'll be the hero down at The Dog and Duck.

How James keeps his cool while listening to idiots, morons and imbeciles is a mystery to me. I want to train myself to do that.
He's getting paid to do that. If you get paid for it, you can learn anything. If you want to, that is.
😂😂😂😂😂
If this guy drove against a wall, he'd back up and drive into it again. What an absolute tool.
This is what happens when you operate, intellectually, on nothing but emotions. His feelings are so strong that he can't even countenance that they could be wrong. Then, when he tries to communicate them, he finds that there is nothing there.
isnt that how the brits who voted to leave the EU based their vote solely on emotions including fear of foreigners - nothing to do with rationale or facts - regardless of country all conservative parties base their policies on irrational emotions that will always win at the voting box even the people that continuously vote against their own interests because delusional fear always outweigh rationale
Usually if you say something like “it’s all the lies and stuff”, everyone is going to nod and agree. They all have opposing views but there’s no denying the fact that lying is no longer scandalous for any politician.
And these are the people that we need to persuade to change their minds. Sadly.
Believing our house shortage, school places and NHS struggles would be helped by free movement is hardly intellectual. I would say the majority of people are just a mouth piece of the very people who profit from a supply of labour that outstrips demand.
Where we are now cannot be completely contributed to us leaving the EU.
Which by the way is also in a recession and also includes the US.
@@matthewfindlay9010 We don't have enough builders, teachers and nurses. Cutting off the supply of workers is hardly going to help that. Also in modern supply side economics the supply of labour is always the limiting factor. Increasing costs due to labour shortages is hardly going to help the people at the bottom that are hit hardest by the cost of living crisis. Thats why we introduced a minimum wage so labour supply cannot drive down wages of the lowest paid. Labour shortages driving inflation will whack them though.
The US isnt in recession its economy grew 4.4%. Neither is the EU. Ours shrank .8%.
As frustrating as this is to listen to, I think it’s important to understand that people like this are VERY common in the UK.
Too many people in the Uk are politically indolent for there to be any hope of change in the near future, Andy is a prime example of someone who believes he has worked it all out, but in reality he's just been reading, and parroting Tory propaganda for years! Undisturbed indoctrination of the easily swayed!
Absolutely correct.
I think from the outside this is mainly England.
Millions 😔
Big Dave in most pubs agree with this caller
A guy argues for 15 minutes solidly and didn't have one single fact or even non ridiculous opinion. However, as we all know, it doesn't matter what you say, its how loud you say it 😂
And this is why a question as complicated as membership of the European Union should have been left to experts.
Give James a medal 😂😂😂
He should a metal after that caller.
This is what happens with aporophobic Politian's and people.
I think James would need a certain amount of therapy after dealing with so many of these callers. He's correct about his job being hard work.
This is the endresult of 40 years of school underfunding and Murdoch and billionaire funded media in Britain. The final product ... someone who believes everything if it comes from the "right" side.

Well… I don’t know about you but I’m a little more ashamed of my country than I was an hour ago
The fact that you feel ashamed (and many other people also are) is something to be encouraged by. You haven't become numb to this. You haven't stopped caring. You haven't abandoned values, or facts, or understanding.
I have been ashamed of this country since 2016 and the vote.
Exactly...It is very shameful that this country allows such a vile propagandist like O'Brien his own radio show. It makes us all ashamed of our country.
not me but I am not English, and the EU never told him, he is right in a way, no one from the EU called him personally to tell him about the budget, and there is a public server where the budget could be downloaded and read for everyone who wants to see it, same with why the GB can not have the same contract like before, because its the benefit of being in the club, the English want to be out, so they now have to prove that their products are on the EU standard, fun fact (and shows how to learn resistant English Tories are) the made in Germany was insisted from England on all German products because the politician was sure the English would only buy English products, bad luck was that the German produced cheaper with higher quality so the made in Germany was at the end not a handicap to buy products it was a benefit
I have been ashamed of this country since Thatcher helped Reagan and his right wing lackey academic Freidman implement the neo liberal project. Morals and ethics have no place in the neo liberal ideology. Nice comment btw.

I applaud the patience of Brian, he actually ask valid questions and tried to understand the mindset of the leavers. As a Canadian, a third country citizen, it makes no difference for me to enter UK (where I live before Brexit) or Germany (where I live now after Brexit) I guess I don’t feel the heat as much, but I did move to Germany because of Brexit. As a former short-term Londoner, all my friends are remainers. I can almost guarantee you that most people who voted to leave don’t even know what EU is all about. My German partner will tell you that, without EU, the hassle of exchanging currencies, and the restrictions on movement of goods. Considered Germany had one of the strongest currencies in Europe before the EU, the Germans would still tell you that it is better being in the EU than being the outside of it. Imagine all the small European countries having to negotiate separately with all the trade deals, and deal with the fluctuation of the currencies. And if not for the EU, I reckon Russia would invade as many small European countries as they can, seeing the way they strong arm their military. I don’t know, that’s just my guess, but judging by all the superpowers in the world, at least the EU is on a level playing field with the alliance.

@@cupguin they managed to do that while still in the EU.
Dilbert is too nice a word
I hope not
That was painful to watch. My hear goes to James O'Brien.
I live in Spain and there are many retired folks from the UK here.
They have to return home every 90 days due this blunder.
Most people I've met from the UK oppose these policies.
This call needs to be added to the British museum 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wow, this was painful to listen to...and to think there are millions of people just like him walking amongst us
And among wonderful eu countries too.
@@gudrunbruemllst4172 which is probably why they don’t put matters of inter-generational importance to popular votes and then let a load of liars and charlatans mislead the public for two years leading up to it
It wasn't painful for me it was hilarious , Monty Python, The Office , The Two Ronnie's , One foot in the grave, ...eat your heart out .
I'm sure this caller is doing it for a laugh.
@@handarokadath1515 no, he is serious.

"Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt"
no doubt on this guy and give that guy a plastic medal, just tell him it is gold, he will believe it.
it's easy believing in conspiracies when you don't know how anything works
It's unbelievable that our politicians are scared of upsetting people like Andy. I can't believe that our entire country seems to be pandering to clueless & gullible people like this guy. My patience with suffering these people & their nonsense is exhausted, we need to rejoin the tried & tested EU, which we know works, ASAP.
wait until he finds out the U.K.’s head of state is an unelected monarch 😂😂😂
A German one at that 🤣🤣🤣
And that the current PM and his predecessor werent elected by the people.
Also, the entire upper house of parliament and their future dependents/ offspring.
And the upper house is made of unelected appointees...
Sunak isn't elected either.
People here in the US think English accents make you sound intelligent... and then there’s this guy.
That'z coz eez a geezer
Swope, Do believe me, there are not many as thick as this caller.
Scotland given the Independance
Vote with absolutely no idea the Brexit Vote was coming next. Sneaky bstrds 😂😂😂
The more I listen to James, the more I realize that the exact same thing that happened in the states happened in the UK after Covid. It's amazing what fear can do to a society.
I don't think COVID is to blame. Lack of education though perhaps
It's been present for much longer than the Covid pandemic.
Unfortunately, it started even earlier in the UK: with Brexit. The anti-EU rhetoric had been building since the 2000s (Farage and his UKIP populist party) but reached a crescendo around 2015 with the announcement of there being a referendum to finally decide our status in the EU....long story short the rightwing populists, which covers most of the British press, and the populist politicians like Farage and Johnson confected a campaign to convince enough disenfranchised to vote against their own best interests and vote to leave the biggest and most successful trading bloc in the world - all to enrich the rightwing elites in the UK, of course. James O'Brien has been trying to hold people to account from day 1....but the populist idiocy, like Trump in the USA, knows no bounds! As you can see in these interviews: "I am right and I don't care about your 'facts'!! My mind is made up."
Before putin was searching for Hillarys emails he was messing around in Westminster
This is terrifying! Not only does this bloke have a vote he also drives a coach for fare paying passengers.😱
He might have kids...thud.
Please tell us which coach company so it can be avoided.
“Well I’m better off than ever!”
And that’s how conservatism works, folks! 😂
The politics of self
He didn't sound very well off. He sounded dumber than a bar of soap.
And the point is he is so thick he hasn't realised he isn't better off.
Big DAWG a paid up member or E.R.G. Is this tempory or long lasting you are not in the cabinet of CHAOS!?? A Russian Oligarch? or WORKING for RISKY or the lying Despot Doris??
Reminds me of the fella being interviewed outside a Trump rally by Jordan Keppler. One of the reasons that he gave when asked why he loved Trump was because the economy was so much better. Keppler says 'really?'
Genius says 'well I'm doing much better since Trump got in anyways'.
Keppler asks 'and what do you do?'
Genius says 'I'm a debt collector' 😂😂😂
I am in shock with the patience and polite attitude of James…that poor man was not just ignorant but a violent selfish intolerable.
This guy is making it look like controlled opposition
I blame the person who showed him how to use a phone.
The slimline phone still attached to the wall 🤣😂
@@masquarra might have made more sense if he'd sent a carrier pigeon.
@@martinclail9290 Aye 🤣😅
His carer left hers lying around.
Lol lol 😂 that made me laugh
Blames the war and pandemic for fall in GDP but credits Brexit for being well off 😅. You couldn't write it.
People do not understand economics but still claim to be well informed.
Do you have any qualifications in economics?
This makes me so sad for my country
Box of kleenex at the ready? 🤧
Liar.
Better trade deals , freedom of movement, freedom of work in all of Europe.
@@joelawrence1486 better trade deals how exactly..explain ??...
Freedom of movement when our country is already over populated and NHS is under severe strain...really ???
@@Trueblue-jx2tk I think you were replying to amor forest. I'm in agreement with you and glad to hear there are some wise people among this herd of JOB fanatics
A wise man once said “It is better to keep one's mouth shut and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.”🤣
I like that quote; can I nick it?
Spot on Jim
Mark Twain, I believe.
Not to be picky, but it was a wise woman actually....the great British writer George Eliot (Mary Evans) who, I;m sure would despair at the state of our country today.
@@dominicestebanrice7460 Thanks.
This guy is probably the brightest bulb in the pub!
Andy is someone who will go on voting against his own best interest because he's beyond help!
Unfortunately this is little England....
The same in the states.
James has more patience then me.
He isn’t beyond help, it’s just that he is told what THEY want
Country gets what it deserves
Top tip. If you spend a majority of your time in the pub, surrounded by friends telling you that every word in the Mail is true do not ring into a talk show where you will get fact checked.
Echo chambers are like oxygen if Propaganda was fire.
The Mail was anti brexit you muppets.
@@sijcalv Eh? No it wasn't!
I have started using James' tactic of asking for examples of people's uneducated claims.
Funny thing is, I get the same awkward silences from the people who spout this nonsense.
They claim so much but can't support their arguments with any credible evidence.
I love how the british version of a "furious row" is mostly deep sighs and "ok," "alright mate"
This would be hilarious if I were no living in the UK
I'm reminded of the "What have The Romans ever done for us?" bit in Life of Brian.
you nailed it!
Ditto!
Except even they were willing to accept the roads were a benefit. Tell a brexiteer trade and they'll say that's nothing to do with the EU, somehow.
So your comparing the EU to a authortarian evil empire known for it's absolute corruption that dominated the whole of Europe. I one hundred percent agree with that comparison.
Spot-on!
How he even manage to work the phone is beyond me.
I think his mother should take that phone off of him, bet the police are sick of him ringing them.
What about the coach he drives with all those people lives in his hands
@@robinparker8662 Hmmm... hard to believe that driving a coach is a skilled job.
....mm...taking time to put together a grammatically correct sentence is obviously beyond you too. Unbelievable.
Well, according to his own words LBC call in show has called him. You can't make it up.
