Hello from Canada James! I just came across your show on TH-cam and I was thrilled. It amazes me how much we have in common (we do share the Royals!)

Funny how angry these farmers get when it is a bit of their wealth they can't keep (well, pass on, as they'll be dead) when they couldn't give a stuff about the effect that Brexit would have on their business and the price of food in the UK which affects the lowest earners in the UK most. No protests about Johnson's oven ready deal, Farage selling them out (except now when he wants to get a bit of political mileage out of it, as usual), no protests about giving Australian and New Zealand farms everything they wanted in a trade deal (they laughed at how much a push-over the Brits were in negotiation). Not a peep out of them then. A few (200, 300 at most) wealthy land owners - who are not synonymous with farmers - will maybe have to, finally, pay some inheritance tax. Many of whom, like Clarkson, bought land to tax dodge.
Why do Brexiteers always get annoyed when James asks them for an example of an EU law has been changed as a result of Brexit and given them a tangible or measurable benefit?!
@darrentaylordigital maybe, but James wants to frame and manipulate the whole conversation. A bit like you are here Darren. Get over it mate, the decision was made and I haven't met someone who regretted voting brexit. If you want a law, here is one: no unlimited free movement of people from the EU. Now let's get a grip on illegal migration which I'm sure you're really hot on
Yeh asking for a single benefit from brexit (there isn’t one) is very controlling of James in the context of the conversation tut tut James stop asking questions man your being ridiculous
@Tokyo-tn1ov you've been brainwashed by repetition to think there isn't one (and that covid was all legit...). I don't regret voting to leave the EU one bit and I haven't met anyone who regrets it either
James I got found you in 2024 and I've been able to navigate political discussions with ease from listening to your shows at least on a weekly basis. I've encouraged other people my age (25) to listen to you to get more educated on these topics. thank you ❤️😊
It’s only someone who’s not lived long who would think James talks sense, when you’re 50 odd you’ll look back and realise he’s riddled with a guilt complex and is actually completely wrong about most things.
@@Refflog I have lived for 51 years and I agree with him on almost everything. Your statement is factually incorrect. Also, lumping a block of people together based on a single characteristic and making sweeping statements about them is the kernel of racism.
I despite the simultaneous arrogance and cowardice of Brexit supporters. They can never admit they were wrong on something, but they also will insist that they are correct on something even if they cannot prove it. I love it seeing them fall apart when James asks just 1 simple question.
Give the average person someone or something to look down on to make them feel better than that person or thing, and you can mislead and rob them blind. Pride before the fall along with envy, the devils favourite sin....
47:17 Technically no. When people say the word average, they are almost exclusively talking about arithmetic mean (sum all the values up and divide by the number of values) but that doesn't guarantee half the values are higher and half lower, that's the median value, the specific value were half are higher and half are lower.
I know. The best bit was when James suggested he sell some land so he can afford to pay the government money. What a silly solution. James was wrong...
Best call of the year, the best bit is when he said he could sell some of the land at a hugely inflated price making a massive profit with very little effort.
British values? Tommy robinsons values? Kier starmers values? Both British. Actually our Tommy has claimed his Irish ancestry (sorry to the Irish), can you still call his values as British?
The Duchy of Cornwall can also lay claim to any property that may have been left Intestate, that is no will left even though there may be people to inherit. I became of this over 50 years ago. That is why the Royalty should give up these monies and should pay tax commensurate with their earnings.
as an actual woke leftie, James is nothing like us. I don't like Jame's liberal stance but I do find myself seeing him as far more reasonable and undeserving of the guff callers give him
I respect James but i am afraid overtime, i watched him become inconsistent when it comes to journalistic integrity. We talk about being factual and following the threads to the truth but he is often drawn into narrative positions on issues. Id think someone of his brilliance would give more time to research all the facts of both sides of wvery story and not just discuss based on the headlines he gets from the establishment.
46:12 “49.9% of the population is below average intelligence.” This would only be assumed true if you include the assumption that the intelligence spread across the population is even. For example, if you had 99 people with an IQ of 50, and 1 with a score of 150, then the average is 51 - 99% of the population would be below average. - Signed, a maths nerd! 🤓
Heaven help us James. As a left winger if these are your best bits then it looks like Farage will be the next Prime Minister. Up your game for 2025 please.

@@GH-pt3eg Nah it’s not that. To answer this in a non political way the reason he has a big audience comes down to a few things. Firstly, putting his opinion on things to one side, technically he is a very talented broadcaster. He’s enjoyable to listen to. Secondly, he really is the only person with a left wing view on the radio. Even on the bbc they’re middle of the road maybe Blairite left. Which means James has a saturated audience whereas on the right the audience is split between many different presenters. Finally, he’s one of the few presenters who will tackle social and cultural issues (AI, Technology, Cinema, The Arts, Diet culture etc) without automatically looking down on them.

The UK took a much bigger economic hit from Brexit than Covid (which they mishandled), and that was down to the Tories.
