The UK will do whatever the US tells it to do. For goodness sake, grow up.
Gaslighting by LBC and their political masters at London Labour HQ
James is saying a nanny state is right because people make bad decisions
Wow it is shocking how many things you can get wrong in a single phone in. Storm Shadow is not a British missile, it is Anglo-French. Ukraine already has permission from the UK and USA to fire missiles into Russian territories, just not long range missiles. The UK has already given permission for Storm Shadow to be fired into Russian territory, but had to walk it back because of pressure from Biden. As for the callers on the topic of Nutrition and Food Labeling, their complete lack of knowledge perfectly illustrated why a legal framework is needed.
Like the way it’s edited to make James look great
David Lammy is a proven liar. He claimed recently that there was proof Iran had shipped missiles to Russia. Even Zelensky denied this. Liar. And a Bildeberg Group attendee. Have a think about that
The rate of death due to malnutrition is skyrocketing in the states, but dropping in Cuba. Curious….
Who's the person with the coconuts? It sounds like it might be an actual fan of Kamala Harris. No? Supporters have very much enjoyed Harris' story about her grandmother and her coconut saying.
I've tried not to think about this too much but this could be the precursor to WWlll
Did he just project Bibi's issue onto Putin? What a joke. Zelenski is the one avoiding votes. Ukraine were shooting missiles into the Donbass and escalating just prior to the invasion. If Europe allow this idiocy, watch America back off and get what they want. A weakened Europe and a weakened Russia.
I think war should have a referendum for the people
Regarding unfettered profiteering l would far rather live with an emboldened government (vilified in the term “nanny state”) than with a gutless government that allows profiteering to be put ahead of the health and well-being of the country.
Delusional! It seems like these guys don't understand what nuclear war means!
How do you stop a nuclear war! Crazy!!!
It's always those who wont be sent to fight, like James, whole cheer on a war
As long as starmer and Boris serve in Ukraine
I want to ask 1 question i heard people keep saying Russia say the war will be won in 3 days I've search for that article or interview but i can't find it, could someone please tell me where can i find that article, thank you enjoyed the program i didn't agree with some stuff but however it was informative
and should russia be allowed to arm our enemies if we do ?
1:16:02 you did say in the beginning it would give the Russians an excuse to fire on the UK.
Britain is a sovereign nation it can make its own decisions but be prepared for retaliation and dont cry when it arrives
This man is not a journalist he is an activist
Now i think i know the meaning of nincompoop
Seriously, i find it hard to belive adults without learning difficulties or eating disorders don't know what is healthy and what isn't even without the RDA information on the packages.
Do people seriously think fried food, fast food, chocolate and other snacks are equal to or even healthier than vegetables, fruits, nuts, fresh meats etc.
Ah yes, I'm sure going to macdonalds, the beacon of a healthy lifestyle and then eating a multi-pack of chocolate is no different to your salad and flatbred. Really!?
I'd argue civilization has developed into something of value despite rating people by the size of their pockets.
The UK needs to let Ukraine worry about Ukraine, Israel worry about Israel and mind our own business. So sick of being a terror target because of Israel and a espionage target because of Ukraine
Sigh, another white person saying that black people should be anti conservative by default.
These are the same people like James who said better to stay in the EU and change it from within as an argument.
Smacks of a lack of perspective
We should definitely let them do whatever they want to do with them.
They don't know how Storm Shadows work… You don't just fire it… The amount of infrastructure a single Storm Shadow needs is incredibly complex, especially from an outside view, something Ukraine does not have.
People used to think seat belts were 'the nanny state', a ridiculous infringement on our rights… nuts now. I remember seeing news reports from the 70s, just people on vox pops ranting about something that is today, normal.
Ads are designed to be suggestive. John Watson weaponized classical conditioning. If you like this… you seen that? That means this!
I like having women, when I wear this deodorant you will get women!
Like fun? These sanitary towels! See how much fun these women wearing them are having?
Like the idea of flying? R— gives you wings!
These kids are having fun, look! Toys! Have a Mc—-!
I recently was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, my parents were older, the attitudes to food in my home when I was growing up were not modern. The backfire for me was not allowing many treats while not taking diet particularly seriously, when I got out, I abused sugar and carbs to the max for like 25 years.
I wish I knew what I have had to learn since last September.
They do give dietary info on food btw. Fat, saturate, salt, sugar etc are on a colour codes on most things, the problem was that until I got diabetes I never looked at those labels.
I'd mention much like the smoking bans, I haven't smoked for a long time now, feels like denying addicts instead of helping them to transition to non sugar/nicotine/alcohol/heroine users first.
Idea: Decriminalize everything and use the McTaxes to show ads produced by the government showing the disaster of over doing carbs and sugar.
Hard drugs revenue to fund clean needle clinics like the do in Portugal. Here's Dave, he's blind and has 1 foot. Eat more salads.
A lettuce and cucumber sandwich is a lot of carbs and carbs turn to sugar and we know sugar is bad for you. Don't. I didn't know that. I knew about carbs, didn't know they were basically sugar. I used to love beige food like chips, bread and pasta… 60lb ago, and it's just a start of my weight loss journey. I could lose half my weight and probably not be in danger zone for BMI ratings.
Also, people get a Mc— because they just came off a double shift shattered and need a pick me up.
We need to recognize that neoliberal deregulation made the ground ripe for fast food abuse. They made ads utterly unethical and they ran our workers towards their breaking point because workers rights have eroded since Reagan and Thatcher weakened Unions.
They made the disease, tired (and too distracted to do the reading) workers, and sold the cure, cheap unhealthy processed fast food with brightly colored plastic nick-nacks that will put microplastics in your ground water and get caught in a seas turtle's nose.
Root
Russia is not my enemy and to be honest we could do with a leader just like Putin
