  • It's week five of the election campaign, and with just one week left, LBC's phone activity has been rife. These are some of the best callers and interactions from the week that included debate on the cross-party betting scandal, Labour's stance on the rights of trans people, and Iain Dale debating with a Christian activist on conversion therapy.
    0:05 - Caller Mike: 'They put Rishi Sunak up against the village idiot.'
    2:13 - Caller Rob tells Nick Ferrari that Kemi Badenoch has an 'absolute dislike for those of us who are gay.'
    2:43 - 'Nick you are not gay, you have not been refused time at the table of the Equalities minister', says caller Rob.
    5:40 - Discussing the rise of physician associates, caller Eilidh tells James O'Brien: 'I genuinely think that they are slowly trying to replace doctors'.
    6:51 - Iain Dale disputes a Christian activist's claim that people can be 'ex-gay' .

      However, here's where science can help you, keep a detailed dream diary, note down everything you dream of, all 3-7 of them. Keep a detailed log. That way you can provide evidence that something has happened. That's science, documenting things and noting what happens. The most likely thing is you're focusing on the couple of times a year when you remember something from a dream, but with over a thousand dreams a year, one of them should fit something. Science has replaced almost every part of religion and psychic abilities demonstrating where they are wrong, science has never, ever been replaced by religion or psychic ability, only better science. Science doesn't have all the answers (yet) but at least it's asking questions and finding things out.

    Kemi is certainly anti LGBT+ and there isn't any denying this. But he (David) doesn't make his statement because she is black, it is done because of her views and her position in government. And it would be correct to criticise her because of that.
    However, what I find distasteful by her (Kemi) is that when a black woman does get abuse, she herself doesn't believe it to be racism despite the comment being specifically saying "hate all black women " to which Kemi response is "“we need to get to a place where we stop chasing people around and looking everywhere for the racism”.

    I relate to the lady who grew up in poverty so much. Me and my mum lived in a bedsit for a few years, i had to share a double bed with her. When i would have a sleepover at friends houses and they dropped me off, i would pretend that the whole house was ours. I knew i wasnt worth as much as other kids from a young age. I had problems at home with a warring family, alcholism, violence. In school i didnt try because i thought what was the point. I acted out, got into trouble, always classed as the "naughty kid" and thats all i thought i was. Now i have a 12 year old son and im in university. I still struggle so much, we live in a one bedroom flat. I struggle to afford the basics sometimes but i still strive to give him the opportunities that i didnt have and make sure he knows how much hes worth.

    This has effected Irish Healthcare significantly. Trans healthcare in the UK is dreadful but in Ireland its 10 times worse.

    I’m someone who believes that most things are nurture, not nature. I include sexuality in this. Though I don’t think it’s 100% nurture. For that reason, I think part of a reason why most people are straight is because it is the societal norm and what we see and understand to be what attraction looks like, from being a child. If, somehow, it was the other way around, I believe more homosexual people would be nurtured. There is nothing wrong with any form of adult attraction sexuality and I think the discussion is cheapened and not helped by saying that if you say it’s created through nurture that you are in some way scorning homosexuals. We are all the way we are through our experiences, our backgrounds, potentially any traumas and there is nothing wrong with that, it should be embraced.

    She's had a similar experience to me aside from racism. I'm half Sudanese and as a child I think my dad was maybe 1 of 10 black people on the island of jersey. I went to a quasi public school where half was paid by the states of jersey. It was only boys from 7-16 but attached to the girls school. My father is a doctor whom achieved a scholarship to both Alexandria university as a civil engineer and later to Beijing to study medicine. My mother was from a wealthy European family and they met in Beijing where she was studying chinese. I'm 3rd cousin to Camilla parker bowles. I had scholarships due to my entrance exam results to both primary and secondary. I later broke the cats test in year 5 where I scored more correct answers in the time limit than was thought possible. I was advised by the headmaster to seek a school that could nurture my intelligence but I couldn't move away from my family due to mental disorders I suffer as a result of lariam - an anti malarial. I was attending extra curricular classes at the secondary school at the age of 9. I and my family were the only people of African origin at the time. Stature wise I'm now around 6:4 but I was always the tallest in my year.
