Entertainment james o'brien nigel farage Psst! Wanna see a dead body? James O’Brien’s response to following Nigel Farage on LBC pulled not a single punch Oonagh Keating . Updated September 19th, 2024 Share Tweet While a hefty portion of the UK media were still tiptoeing around the facts about Brexit – both before and after the vote – LBC’s James O’Brien was sharing facts, and laying the blame for the spread of misinformation at the feet of its main architects – particularly Nigel Farage. The fact that they were radio station colleagues for some of that time didn’t stop him.
With Farage now an MP – the eighth time’s the charm, as they say – and the self-described friend of Donald Trump, he has been popping up all over the place to share his controversial opinions on anything and everything from Hawk Tuah to Trump’s racist dogwhistling. One of those Farage pop-ups was on the Nick Ferrari show, immediately before James comes on air at ten o’clock. Farage addressed the fact that the recent race riots had been tagged the Farage Riots.
WTAF – the irony of Nigel Farage on Nick Ferrari's morning LBC show, calling @mrjamesob a moron, and accusing him of spreading "hatred" and "lies" #jamesobrien pic.twitter.com/4J1OUmDOBe — Pete Edwards (@MrPeteEdwards) September 19, 2024 His comment – about James O’Brien was absolutely not true.
We know – shocker! The term had been coined on Twitter/X – where else? It made for a savage and memorable handover. Wha.
