Entering 'relative parliamentary stability'. This aged well.
Exactly! Only someone as useless as borris could get such a landslide majority and lose his job within 2 years
The whole video is gold :))
No fan of Campbell but it’s nice to see two people with different views have a respectful interview. Farage is always fair to his guests.
Nick Swettenham unlike mr O'Brian
I agree Nick: I saw this popup on UA-cam and I initially thought it would be a big fight, then... I hoped it would be a civil discussion. Fair play to both of them.
FARAGE IS A DOUBLE AGENT
I thought that.
They're not as different as youthink- why else would he appear with Farage so often?
Nice to see this conversation conducted intelligently and respectively.
I loved the fact that the political left & right had a great conversation. You don't see that every day! 👍
Campbell makes my skin crawl, and just makes endless idiotic excuses about why Labour lost . Ignoring what people voted for, got them into this well deserved mess they are in . Simple as that !! 🙄
Boris is the next zionist warcriminal puppet just like tony bliar boris will support america in a war with iran
@@jamesberry8499 - So we should support Iran?
Yes, he's a real weasel...
and what are you an unreasonable radical leftist?
He is not actually human, he is a reptile, I am sure of it.
Farage is a gracious interviewer and Campbell a highly interesting interviewee in this discussion.
Alistair said the public didn't understand Labour's brexit policy....yes we did mate, only too well!
Labour themselves didnt even understand their own Brexit policy
Tbh,who is now bothered what Alister and Nigel now think?
Exactly. It means the return of our Empire and us becoming no. 1 in the world again.
could I ask for you to elaborate on how the Labour's Brexit Policy was flawed please?
Not combatting your statement by any means, would just like to be informed
@dogeatdog as I said. I'm not combatting the point, I am asking to be educated on the matter
Welcome back to LBC Nigel, we’ve missed you
Thought that Farage was an MEP
“Only 17000 east Europeans are expected when we allow them to come” Tony Blair.
750000 came in the first year.
Blair and Campbell knew exactly what they were doing when they opened the gates. Does anyone even remember the cuts and reshuffles to the customs/immigration departments at exactly the same time? Machiavellian villains the pair of them!
The strategy was to use immigration to control wages and maintain international competitiveness.
@@ltmund and change the demographics of the UK to push out the traditional white British Tory voter.
ltmund they were ruthlessly destructive yet they still walk around like they own the place.
@@ltmund Which the tories continued with and still do continue with to this day. Why haven't they changed it and why are you not annoyed at them?
@@hiddenknowledge2012 who said I wasn't? I'm just commenting on were the policy came from.
Why do you feel the need to make the excuse of "they did it as well" instead of understanding policies?
How does this war criminal continue to be invited to discuss and influence politics??? He and his pal Blair should be in prison! 😠
Should a 7 x failed politician and irrelevant patsy of the Tories, who's party failed to gain a single seat, be given a political discussion show? .
He has the biggest party in the EU parliament of UK MEPs. Campbell wasn’t even elected back in the Blair years. Let alone now.
@@turbotoez3539 yeah but he did have a paid position in government. What's the point of farage again? He's not the official leader of the party and never was and his party us the largest in an institution that it doesn't believe should exist ha!
Matthew Foley so your logic is. It doesn’t matter your opinion if you get elected. But it does matter if you get given a highly paid position because it’s in government. Do you even realise what you said underneath blind hatred for Farage.
@@turbotoez3539 No more MEP jobs in the future anyway so what's your point? Farage has just campaigned for a tory victory since the start. Pretending he's anti-establishment.
I’m watching this from Australia, I could be wrong but it seems to me the single biggest issue at the recent election outside of Brexit was immigration
And the threat to the British culture by people from countries that are basically backward.
Daughter of Enoch of the irony of what you are saying about mass migration is lost on you.
Funny how Muslim immigrants all want to go to none Islamic countries? Is that because there are no Islamic counties worth going to or are they invading
@@johnharding6394 Maybe because america and uk are in their countrys bombing them killing kids and women for oil and pissrahell
The UK has imported too many unskilled people and lost too many skilled people. Then kept the doors open so anyone can enter, claiming the country has a skills shortage. The result was a drop in earnings and a drop in tax revenues while big business got richer. Well done Blair.
@Daughter of Enoch i dont think you read Jims comment properly or didnt understand it maybe ?
1:00 "We're going to be heading into 'relative parliamentary stability'." 😀 That's funny!
shocking isn't it 😂😂😭
Alistair, how did the voting go in Burnley mate?
I ask you people everyday what the benefits are of a no deal you lot go quiet care to enlighten me?
@J Sev i would gladly show you how scared i am are you a man or a soyboy
@J Sev still no facts to give me soyboy i ONLY DEAL IN FACTS snowflake fake news clown.
@Chala 1 What do you get back?
@J Sev uk aint prosperous
Dr David Kelly RIP
was that him?.
you're right..he was the crazed spin doctor of dodgy dossier fame.
I wonder if he has lost any sleep over his death ?
So who did not put his money where his mouth is.
Why interview him? He’s more irrelevant than anyone.
When all’s said and done Alistair is just a fan boy of the establishment. Even after the election result he still thinks that the voting public got it wrong.
Mark Trepka The voting public always get it wrong, history is a testament to that.
Mark Trepka 20% of the population know what’s going on the rest of you are sleeping
What an arrogant A/H Campbell really is, I wish he would F/O back to Scotland & join the Snp
sad is beauty just because I said the voting public get it wrong doesn’t mean I think we should stop letting people vote, quite the contrary, i believe we need to get the 34% of people who are registered to vote who don’t vote to vote.
Never ever forget that Campbell was responsible for the " original fake dossier " that took us into a illegal war in Iraq . You can from Nigels face the distain he has for this vile man.
Templar Knight The Conservatives lapped the Iraq war up. With or without superficial evidence, what are you talking about? Would bet my bottom dollar that Farage was pro Iraq invasion.
M K no he wasn’t no he wasn’t
The Conservatives and the right wing tabs demonized to an absolutely despicable extent those who were against the Iraq war, Charles Kennedy being a key example. The war was a critical mistake that I'm not excusing, but it would've happened regardless of what party was in power at the time.
Alistair Campbell, Hugh Grant, Bono & Bob Geldof should’ve invested in Vaseline - the rogering might’ve been easier to take.
I don't get what you mean by that comment.
😂
camban 👌🏾🤣
@@stuartbritton7408 yes you do
@@jcaliberty8288 I don't. It looks gibberish.
the gammon is strong in the comments
lintburn maybe cos the gammon won the argument, won the election, and brexit is happening. Meanwhile in snowflake land.....
Its only democracy when people vote your way. No wonder you keep losing insulting people is not the way to make them go your way
The Brexit debate is over. Can LBC stop having this war criminal on now.
I think they’re just rubbing salt in the wound.
How is Nigel a war criminal?
Uller Uprising he’s talking about Campbell and his era of Spin along side Blair
@@SammyInnit boris is doing the exact same thing now with iran?
Boris The liar source?
Watching this video today 11/June/2024 the answer is, well it's looking rosey for British politics compared to this video. Red Rosey. 🌹
Labour died yrs ago but they did not know which grave to go 👀😍
Labour ended when new labour started..thanks Tony you traitor.
Hello 🌹
Dr BS should do one now !
A mature debate between two political opponents ... I'm glad it didn't descend into the sound-bite 'gotcha' arguments that we are used to. Thanks guys, respect :-)
Very much agree
Labour are on a different planet.
While Momentum exists there will never be a Labour Government.
fool
Campbell is yesterday's Man, if he wants to spout on he should have stood as a MP.
Not a fan of Cambell but it was refreshing to hear the conversation without the heat! bravo LBC
Labour will be in the wilderness now for twenty years.
Lol. If labour move back to the centre like they did under Blair they can win again. You people should study history a bit more.
work horse 😂😂😂😂
@@workhorse7134 That'll take decades ... they're too entrenched to the left.
Low twenty percent now, definitely
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
I dont think these two would have such a constructive debate today.
BJ and his cronies have broken us
The two of thrm work very well together. It would be a great listen to have them together on an ongoing show.
Save yourself 25mins and it’s no labour can’t be saved
That’s what they said in the early 90s too.
Oop 🌹😂😂
Campbell was on politics live today. but that's the BBC. he bores me.
Labour cannot apoint a leader who is a remainer that's why they lost all the seats not listening to the voter simples!
The Labour Party didn't forget their voters, they simply ignored them. But i wasn't going to forget them come polling day. I can honestly say i will never again vote for them. Ever.
and there you go. 6:23
Labours position must be to oppose leaving after we have left.
Beggars belief.
How can anyone with a modicum of common sense take the labour party seriously?
The labour comedy set to continue for years to come.
Couldn’t watch all the video Campbell makes me feel ill..🙁
Nigel is a better political interviewer than Piers Morgan or Andrew Marr. Its rare to see an interviewer ask a question and then remain silent until the interviewee is allowed to give their answer. Just about every interviewer seems to end up arguing when Alister Campbell is interviewed but Nigel manages to keep it civil and informative which is more effective at trying to arrive at constructive solution and avoid polarisation.
Nigel doing his bit to bridge a chasm. Fair play to him. Gracious in victory.
Campbell is worthy of respect because of the sheer power he has had in the darkness, quite literally a master of the dark arts. He is the brain behind the Blair project, which despite the fact we all rightly detest that, we can't deny that it was successful mostly in its aims. Blair was merely the figurehead, Campbell was at the heart of the project. If we can't respect our enemies then it will weaken us. This partly formed the disgraceful complacency of the so-called Conservative Party all while the Blair project was happening.
"Worthy of respect" may be a step TOO far as regards Alistair Campbell, but you are definitely right about Tony Blair and his role in New Labour. He was merely the public relations figure for a "labour" party that had clearly moved very far from its original purpose as a workers rights movement, and slowly become infiltrated by real communists with a very hard left agenda. And while Campbell and Mandelson were undoubtedly successful in their selling of the illusion that was Tony Blair to the British public - which bought these snakes the time to wield parliamentary power and implement some of their policies - with Corbyn it was no longer possible to conceal the truth. The party is now anti patriotic, anti democratic and a major threat to the future survival of the UK. Hence the absolute hammering they received - quite justifiably - with the UK having a VERY close escape.
Think you’ll find it was Mandelson
Immigration is the big issue and stop talking to war criminals Nigel!
I can’t imagine to vote labour again unless momentum goes away and so is jezza. I support brexit ! and none of the labour jokers can lead.
Labour needs to be anti EU, anti political correctness, pro a meritocracy, low tax to be ever a party worth voting for.
You mean they need to be the Conservative Party lol
@@mogznwaz Perhaps a much improved version of the Tory's....we can only dream.
Nigel's persona always reminds me of Jim reeves (gentleman Jim) Ms cdf UK always fair and respectful
It's over. Wow. Even Campbell doesn't want to argue any more
what's up with adverts every 90 seconds
This aged tremendously.
Alistair Campbell as a representative for Labour is akin to letting Mira Hindley represent baby sitters.
Oh no i thought that campbell had gone away 🤦♂️
Alistair welcome back sir master of the dark arts and spin,who doesn't understand left right or middle politics
I wish the rest of the UK acted like these two. They fundamentally disagree with each other but can you tell? I wish I could be more like them myself.
How nice it is to listen to these two who are as different as it's possible to be politically.Rather than the way j.obrien has to constantly demean anyone who is politically different to him and his views
There should be a date shown, under each video.
The Labour and Islamic Party need Diane Abacus Abbott as the leader and we could do with the laugh
A *new* Labour party that promotes traditional Labour 'left-of-centre' values (and not far/extreme left) needs to emerge from the dying embers of what used to be an effective opposition. As it stands, the current Labour Party rot will never recover from its cancerous infiltration by Momentum.
Alastair Campbell, he thought he knew everything before the election. Then after thinks he knows why it went wrong. The way Alastair talks is as if he could never get anything wrong.
ffs him saying that Boris aint that popular with the people ! what does that make Corbyn then
It takes a Man to admit he was wrong. Campbell incapable of admitting he completely misread (and misled) the British public.
Campbell isn't a member of the Labour Party, but he's certainly still a member.
Can’t stand looking or listening to this man,,,,watched this till I finished typ
I did not see the point of having Campbell on he had nothing to contribute lets have people with ideas and vision.
its possible its just ultimate gloating rights against an arch remainer/peoples vote activist ----i think it works both ways though we should be convincing them that we CAN have a workable economy after brexit,,,,better to bring them along with OUR argument considering how hard fought its been to get there
I completely agree with Nick. It is interesting to have an open, honest discussion on the radio from people which are from different sides of the spectrum. I cannot help myself thinking that maybe the clarity of the election and the decision on Brexit has helped to moderating the tone, too?
Nigel should invite Guy Verhofstadt to the party......
I loathe that bloke Verhofstadt!
20:10 why does he think us highlanders live in caves?
So much has changed!!!
who is watching this as labor is about to win the largest majority since 1956 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ha, yeah was thinking the same. People discussing Labour surviving 4 years ago, now people discussing Conservatives surviving today. It will be like this and vice versa every 5 years!
Is it just my imagination or are youtube adverts becoming MUCH for frequent (sometimes in multiples, sometimes unskipable)?
Why is Campbell continuously being paid for his opinion which has been proved again and again to be wrong by popular vote.
Best of mates !
I love how arguing for remain has been some sort of redemption for Campbell. I wonder how many of those out marching in London to remain were also out marching against the Iraq War calling this guy a war criminal and shouting 'dodgy dossier'. Just shows how principled they are in my opinion.
So they should have voted to leave, simply because Campbell wanted to remain?
campbells new book is out this year : "accepting defeat gracefully and other idiotic ramblings". apparently 48% of people like his new book but 52% dont.
I demand a second poll
farage interviews sadiq khan please
I thought the European Parliament was powerless Nigel? 🤔
you know brexit is done when these two can have a cordial conversation
Very cosy interview with The Farage there. The real question for little Alistair was "Are you working for any labour leadership contender at the moment?".
I think a lot of people watch Campbell in the same spirit as the old mother-in-law joke, where the guy gets up an hour earlier each morning so he can hate her a bit longer.
Alistair seems to be more relaxed here, still unlikeable but at least he's smiling. Nigel and Alistair have become strange mates , both have opposing views but can sit down and have a civil debate and probably have a pint later on
Corbyn was 'far, far to the left of the average labour voter' ? ! Far, far to the left of UKip maybe...but he wasn't particularly left wing.
This has aged well!
Campbell's ego will be suffering from depression now he finally realises that what he thinks and what he says is totally irrelevant
Why is this man given airtime? He's part the major problem with politicians. You can still sense his ignorance/arrogance!!!
I live in Scotland so it doesn't matter what I or anyone else in Scotland thinks. What England wants the rUK gets .......
Nigel, you are the greatest! Alistair Campbell always says it as he wants to see it as opposed to how it is. He’s delusionaland irrelevant
A sensible discussion ...should have happened during the referendum , the following 3 years & the election !
We missed you on LBC, Nigel!! We love and appreciate you, dear man.
No we don’t miss you nige !
Alistair Campell - in his analogy comparing the December 2019 election, with that of 1997, neglects the fact that the hard-working, tax-paying British public have learned what a traitor TONY BLAIR was, to their interests; and they will be doubly-sceptical should any 'charismatic' person materialise in the Labour Party of today. Of course, none of the present contenders has that precious 'charism': most are entitled millionaires from London, who despise their own 'core' vote of the past. The other 'problem' is where Mr Campbell continues to describe the 2016 Referendum vote as a 'mistake'. This is as valid as describing the recent December 2019 General Election result as a 'mistake'. You do not offend the majority of the Electorate by telling them they have - after consideration - "made a mistake"! Thus, my conclusion is that Labour is now in terminal decline, and will slowly lose more and more seats: until it is entirely dependent on those who contribute no taxes: especially among the immigrant communities which actively discourage the learning of English, and the adoption of British culture, and British values. We are, therefore, in the market for a new progressive, patriotic Party for the hard-working, tax-paying Brit.
Yep they are history. We all woke up. We won't be fooled again. These are not Politicians they are Agenda Pushers.
@@lynncuthbert2307 Well-written Lynn! But, of course, their priority for the next decade will be to retain their over-inflated salaries. Such is the 'height' to which Labour now aspires.
Enter the "Reform Party"?? Maybe...….
@@Mike-tb5gj Not for this ex-UKIPPER! Much too 'Faragey' for me. It is 'FOR BRITAIN' every time!
@@HagiaSophia1952 I am inclined to agree Mark. I did not renew my UKIP membership. I like a lot of AMW says, but it will take time for her support to build.
Thumb down. The amount of adds spoil watching this. Can't stand adds in the middle.
@chrisw All the adds do is put me off watching anything. Never bought anything from these adds. Just like junk mail through your door, straight in the bin. Annoying.
Campbell comes across a lot better in a sweat top and body warmer than in a suit, i must say.
Nice to hear a grown up debate for once between two opposing sides.
Labour needs to be in touch with British people
Great discussion right up to the point where Alistair is asked by caller, with barely disguised relish, how he feels about having been out of touch with the electorate on Brexit. I roared with laughter and Nigel was chuckling. What will post transition Britain have to look like before you eat your hat Alastair?
Stop these annoying ad breaks every couple of minutes LBC - are you really so desperate for money?
Lbc = wankers
Labour and Campbell are irrelevant. The man is living with his head down a grid - please stay there.
this aged like gone off milk in a broken fridge
Is this the same man that says people didn't know what they where voting for !!
I was there - it was a great night.
Did I miss the bit where the word “labour” was mentioned and what relevance it has to The Labour Party in 2020? More honest to rename it The Socialist Party. Then all lefties can pick their preferred camp; Liberal, Socialist or Communist.
If there is no love for Boris, and he got a large majority, then how bad must Labour have been?
To see Campbell having to admit defeat is awesome.
We all know someone like Campbell don’t we.
I disagree with Alistair Campbell on Brexit vehemently, however I have great admiration and respect for him in his support for democracy and his acceptance of the decision of the people. Excellent conversation.
