Bring back Sangita!
What's happened to Sangita? Have LBC sacked her for asking difficult questions of the Israeli spokesman?
Boycott LBC
Why is it you people ignore war like Yemen? 140 starved and dead children this month, and 400 000 dead in total so far. Yes, that is 5 zeros!
Its very odd indeed. Israel is not realy a UK war, Ukraine is.
Caused by the US to keep Obama in power
Robbing is bad, so who has robbed young people of their future?
Bully obrien
Uniparty politicians
Thatcher and her cohorts. It was all predicted and planned back in the 1993 by Rees Moggs old man in a book called 'The Sovereign Individual'.
Oligarchs
@bird The Tories with their disastrous lockdown. That's an easy one!
If you were a 15yr old Black boy back then, you're definitely charged, convicted & entered into the criminal justice system.
I did at aged 11, for a small box of 6 monster in my pocket toys. I’m autistic and I believed my friends at the time. Probably had a mental age of an 8 year old. I was the only one charged out the three of us. Guess what they were white.
I was thinking that
Yes sadly many in the met considered the colour of someones skin a reason to arrest them.and often worse.
Unfortunately, that was my experience!!
100%
There’s a big difference between stealing records and stealing food because you are hungry.
The Problem is things are harder now than they were back then, & whether it's here in The US or The UK we've got incompetent Lawmakers unwilling to make life somewhat easier for people because there's no profit in it for them.
They started too in 1978. Only one woke up and said never again, and the other improves the way to steal and keeps stealing and if never caught becomes a politician.
When you were a kid, you never looked into your future and imagined that someday you'd never have the $$ to own a house, own a car, buy yourself an occasional nice thing, etc. More and more people now can never imagine a future where they can afford any of those things, so they don't care about petty theft if they can get away with it.
@jijaga Agree about buying a house...the rest is nonsense.
@@chatham43 first world problems. Now you know what it feels like.
@@chatham43 Then you don't live in the same reality as anyone else. Buying a car? When was the last time you didn't "Buy" a car on credit, trading in your previous one to keep the cycle rolling? Have you ever paid off and owned a car? 90% of people haven't, and that's basically "Renting" friend. So much in life you no longer own, at best you rent it on credit. That's the company store model our great grandparents and their parents spent 100 years to break us out of.
If you have a skill thatis in demand, then this is the insane ifestyle you can expect in the west.
You need to remember a country needs to be cohesive, innovate, have low crime, attract the right people to pay the insane bills; NHS, police, fire, Armed forces MI5, Mi6, criminal justice system, prisons, housing and other free benefits, pension.
For fw decades ONLY, there were opportunities, and hardworking people could afford this stuff. World travel with tiny airfares is all new, as is the net for example.
Now, there is phone/social media addction, imagined lives for 3 hours a day instead of getting a skill.
....also, the UK is spending billions and billons each year on univited guests. Woke is what you people wanted and got.
btw, you are in WW3 with Russia, and will spend far more on NATO.
Has Sangita Myska been silenced to suit the Israel’s?
Really appreciate you sharing that story James, it couldn't have been easy talking about it.
Arrogant public schoolboy no doubt thought he was entitled to nick the records - rules are for the peasantry
There will come a day when LBC puts time stamps on all their videos! But this is not that day! Lol
I'm sure you're welcome to do it 😂
LBC really doesn't understand UA-cam lol
Thank. You. For. Telling us.
Sympathy for a thief and a bully
Stunning and brave.
9.47 Just because you haven't thought about it in decades, doesn't mean you have forgotten it. 😉
As a music person, I'm curious if James remembers which LPs they were.
Billy Bragg and Alexei Sayle
I had the same experience as James at the age of 14. I remember spending what felt like an eternity in a cell counting the small tiles on the wall of the cell of the police station while deeply dreading the arrival of my parents.
The experience so seared itself into my conscience that I could conjure up the image of the cell wall just by closing my eyes, which kept me from committing all manner of crimes ever after.
i recall when i was 14 in 1980 and i got nicked for stealing makeup from boots: i was hoisted by my arm to such a degree that i still have damage in my shoulder and not by a buzzy but by a store detective. i had not been to a boarding school, i was just really, really poor. i needed money for period products. i had had to steal from the local shops to get to the shops in town to steal to order so that i could afford tampons. i did not have a parent present when the plain clothes copper "interviewed" me: he was rather busy sitting on the edge of the desk and thrusting his groin towards me as he told me (and i quote) "your a pretty girl, there are other ways that you can make money?" yes, really. do you really think that much has changed? people usually steal for the same reasons: need, not greed. the rich steal from us out of greed, not need.
I am so sorry sweetheart. Hope you are doing alright now
so brave of you to share your experience James , so sad . so heart felt.
He hasn't changed a bit since then
@23:00 james is so rude to the caller. He was clearly trying to make the point that the nature of policing has changed. It became a service as opposed to an force and that ethos has permeated throughtout policing. So instead of taking a tough stance on crime as per your experience, now policing is more concerned with all manner of weird crimes that didnt exist in your day like facebook threats and mean tweets. Maybe be in a receptive mood and not so rude to your callers when you personally dont agree with them
When has he ever managed that?! 😂 I’ve never heard him being nice and sympathetic to someone on the right.
Is it me or the government is aching like Trump close the border build the wall, Take asylum seeking poor people to Rwanda even though they are not from Rwanda make this make sense...
Where is Sangita Myska?
James, I watched the thieves who defrauded the entire world for profit in 2008 walk away from the untold harm they did to ordinary people with no repercussion of any kind. In fact, most of them increased their wealth ... a lot. I am a 'goody two shoes', never stole anything, never would, but even I can understand how a lack of respect for the norms has been engendered. Law is respected only when it applies to all, equally.
If I found money lying around I either give it to charity or put it in a collection box.
What an absolutely spectacular show, James. I found the recollection of your childhood experience with shoplifting, relatable.
I think that crimes have become more serious and prolific, and the police just don't have the capacity to complete all the bureaucratic paperwork.
Liz Truss mixed up the Balkan peninsula and the Baltic sea. The Russians laughed at her.
In love with your show, with your integrity as a journalist and with your English accent.
Nisrine from Morocco
The horse pageantry is like reviving roman traditions because we used to do it.
This country has been stuck in the empire phase for a while, and is why we can't progress.
I think most 15 year old with dreams of becoming a barrister, would still be scared shitless these days. I just think it is much much more difficult finding a 15 year old dreaming of becoming a barrister. I feel like most people living in London doesn't realize how destitute rest of the country is, depending on how you cut out london greater area, the UK population is poorer than the poorest US state.
JoB stated tat the UK is the worlds 6 th richest?
If it is, it will not be for long. A country needs innovation, low crime, social cohesion, and low bills.
UK has growing bills, less innovation, often lazy workforce, and gone woke.
btw, WW3 with Russia will cost you, plus your self made growing internal threats.
Time to wake up?
Thank you for sharing your experiences so candidly. I think we all found ourselves doing something we terribly regret. It really about learning from it. It is what makes us evolve.
best time of the day !
James your management sacked a journalist for asking questions not that it matters but i am never watching LBC again after sending this text.
odd idea, but could there be an outside chance that people are stealing food because they are hungry?
Where’s Sangita Myska?
They don't know what they are doing, let alone policy.
Don't mention Sangita.
So piracy AND theft?
James O'Brien?
James O'Piratebay more like, you naughty little Napster.
Your latest book needs to be on the desk of the Director of Public Prosecutions. Whoever that person is these days... 🤣
Imagine how distraught those English voters would be if everytime they voted in a general election or referendum, their vote would be entirely cancelled out y the three other constituent countries of the UK. How heard would they feel then? They'd feel like the rest of us do: permanently ignored.
They cheated life, Selling illusions
I'm born Catholic. I have been for over 50 years. I don't carry around Catholic guilt.
Just to make the point.
You can't shoplift from Amazon.. Reckon that's our future? No more physical shops. Also: The criminals will always find a way
I love this show!
looooooooooooooooooooooooool @47
An early surprise! Thanks from Canada
"Phelps"
"No it's Philp, singular, P-H-I-L-P"
"Philps, ok"
When the police have no resources to spare to pursue non-violent shoplifting and the shop staff are threatened with immediate dismissal by their employers for attempting to prevent theft - it's entirely down to the customer to choose to pay or not. A store security guard is the only defence for a shop. Unfortunately that is an unaffordable option for many stores.
My controversial take is that nothing has changed.
The police force was always about security theater.
You can’t jail as many people as are committing the crimes.
You never had the resources.
You only had the fear that something much worse would happen.
The problem is when many people feel like they are resigned to the lower classes, they will continue to shoplift and commit property crimes well into their 20s because they have nothing to lose.
Something thats changed is the internet...
Still carry Catholic guilt to this day. Traumatised 🤣
Oh, Yes
The UK receives at least £90 billion illicit funds from Africa ever year, will the government pass the law to re-send this money to Rwanda so illegal immigrants can be self funding rather than the UK paying for the cost 😂
we dont 4ave the same police service. kids watch crime go unpunished all day everyday n hardly see a copper sept on tv.
has any1 ever seen any1 get punished for littering, but we all see the signs saying its illegaln yet see that crime in front of t4e signs n nothing 4appens and it just continues from the time we start understanding laws we see them twisted or ignored
I don't think people shop lift butter with the idea of complete importunity. They make a choice because of the real thieves they don't have any money but they need to feed the kids. Who makes that decision and doesn't try to carry it off without looking guilty? Then, if caught, try to carry it off, or bolt?
In 2018 Israeli soldiers shot over 6,000 Palestinians. In many cases they were shot with illegal expanding ammunition. So, did the present iteration of this problem begin on 7th October 2023 (1,200 casualties) or March/Dec 2018 (6,000 casualties) Discus ??
Tory ministers remind me of people in companies that are promoted to a position that they really unqualified to do and ram through odd new policies and rules without stopping to think why no one before them didnt think wise to implement them.
I don't mind people working horses as long as they are treated well and get to do some of their own enjoyable stuff.
If they're is a horse who absolutely resists working, it should not be forced.
LBC limiting britains conversation - bring back Sangita - remove Bullionaires influence on the media.
Thanks for that you was lucky but woolys was where most kids nicked sweets
Or tapes
I don't think horses are anything but for show these days. Lots of countries have them and it's supposedly a privileged job taking care of them in many countries. I'm saddened that it's not in the UK.
"Teaspoon" jumps to mind?
Pakistan's army use convoys of mules to carry ammo through mountain passes without supervision. Horses in traditional roles? nah.
Waitrose has a security officer guarding the alcohol aisle.
Sainsburys requires you scan your barcoded receipt to allow you to exit the self service as well as staff watching the checkouts.
Jesus christ James,, you dragged that out.
❤
There is a difference between swiping some records and stealing butter to feed yourself and your family.
The rationale is simple: the Conservative Party, guided by a misguided sense of wisdom, sought to reignite an entrepreneurial spirit rooted in antiquated 198s ideologies. The outcome has been a nation increasingly fragmented, where individuals struggle to make ends meet on insufficient wages as the relentless pursuit of profit margins dwindles to minute percentages. Moreover, a prolonged 40-year conflict against unions has constrained the safeguarding of workers' lawful entitlements."
What's the topic he was thinking of doing but won't?
Thatcher isn’t around to keep them in check anymore!
Chris Phils - the Peter Principle in action ...
The rise in shoplifting is a predictable consequence of the economic crisis. For a start, the thieves might be stealing to make money for drugs etc. (not all though) by selling food to people who can't afford shop prices. Then the police force is so stretched thin (because of cuts) that they have to priorotise crimes to investigate, especially when new crimes and demands increase in the workload.
Posted this another UK upload but it's relevant to here as well. In addition to being generally inhumane, the Rwanda scheme sounds like it's going to cost a ridiculous amount of money that could be spent in much more productive ways. But that's conservatives for you.
He said no stories. Gosh
They and there are alot of 'They'!
They don't seem to care.
So, they don't seem to want nor think they need to know, let alone understand.
Simply because they truly don't care, or wish to care, as yet.
I mention yet, not caring, not knowing the understanding is NOT sustainable.
All very obvious of course, at least to some. Thankfully.
💜
I tried my best for my son never to have to pretend he didn’t want to do something cos he knew he get a big F off if he asked for money to do it cos that’s what I always did
Love this guy man 😎 I can relate 👊🏾
Sorry James looks like LBC have sacked Sangita… goodbye LBC..
Idk about the uk but here in the u.s. places like walmart absolutely do not have to sell 12 of a stolen item to make it back. They can, on their word, write it off on their taxes and get full retail value for it not cost value. Its for that very reason a large portion of returns are destroyed in trash compactors. 9 out of 10 returned items i bet at the one i worked at went straight in the crusher. Its more profitable to write it off as a loss for the full sale value than to pay to ship it back for repackaging. Waste at its best
Most schools had a kid called douglas and he was usually what they called a bit slow or educational sub normal .
I think that there are multiple reasons but it might have to do with the availability of information. I propose that because the population is seeing the wealth, powerful, politician class and those connected to them get away with all manner of crimes regular people have developed a f it mindset. I am obviously not in or from the UK but that is my take.
Re blank cassettes and copying genuine recordings : we had a boarding house teacher who was a militant member of the MU and he famously went round destroying boys' cassette copies - his stand against copyright infringement. All copied recordings deprive musicians of money, or at least that was the case in the 1980s. Not sure if that still applies with all the online platforms.
Not every region voted leave!!! Look north people!!!
1:12:08 actually i can ... and im going to because it has to start some where and it might as well start with this man you are talking about
"conditional discharge"? Isn't when get results at STD clinic? 🤔🥃
(Credit to John Cooper Clarke)
oh dear: would you like to have "force" again mr bobby, and no accountability? i do wonder why such people join these institutions which are clearly about not controlling "crime" but of being available to suppress uprisings. it is pretty well understood that the police do not stop crime, they just report it when they bother to turn up. i suppose that he is sad that he can not longer abuse people without any recourse: sarah everad much?
Still will never forgive O'Briens vilification of the unjabbed and his total avoidance of conversation about the ongoing injuries and death's.!!! 🤬
@United He suffers from selective memory syndrome!
Trying for the online version of Idiots Corner? You've put yourself in it with that one.
Well, if you're not going to forgive him why do you listen to the programme then, and where do you get your stats
Let’s remember the media figures who you don’t have to forgive over covid : I’ll start: Alison Hammond. It’s probably going to be a short list.
@@DennisMoore664 ,
The James O'brien's fanzine echo chamber is the idiot corner ..!?!
Maybe there is no illegal butter black market, maybe the people stealing butter are modern day Robin hoods giving it to people who can no longer afford to buy the basic essentials.
FFS will someone tell him to stop swallowing into the mic!!!
It is completely amateurish, and nobody else does it
MAKE HIM STOP!!!
James: quit LBC. You cannot have/keep your moral integrity there
Relatively low level crime? Do YOU remeber how much LPs cost back then? A £10 LP in 1986 (not even positive they were 10) would be £27.86 in today's money x 5 = £139.
To be fair, I knicked 20ps worth of sweets in 1986 and got caught, garage attendant said "you ever do this again, I'll tell your dad". Never happened again...well not sweets anyway.😘 And you, like me James, didn't end up in court coz we're both white, privileged lads. End of.
Vinyl is silly money these days. I don't remember LPs being that price in the 80s; CDs maybe.
A vinyl LP was about £4 in 1986, which is £11.51 today allowing for inflation. And it was the same price even if it was a double album. But vinyl albums cost 3 times that today. The new Beyonce is £35 on vinyl. New Pearl Jam: £40. New Taylor Swift: £45. The vinyl market is a ripoff today. Charging even more for ltd. edition coloured pressings. Is it Billie Eilish calling for official restrictions on the number of variations allowed per release, to cut back on obsessive fans being ripped off?
Hate to say it, but until Sangita is back I will not be listening/watching LBC. Hard to lead the conversation when you're not allowed to speak.
Opening up on important days with utter purile twaddle. I don't and never will vote. But these people earn from our rage and use our rage mercilessly whilst pretending to be a human being.
What’s changed was thatcher and American imported culture ie crime and street gang culture
Another monologue
The guy claiming that the cavalry horse had never seen a field wasnt being truthful. The horses are hacked out in Hyde Park and Hounslow Heath everyday and the horses are regularly sent to pasture too. In the summer they even get taken on a beach holiday in West Wales - no, they really do.
I was in a cavalry regiment and our officers had horses. They cared far more for their horses than for the men under their command.
Lifting a sac full of LPs when you were 15 makes be proud that you’re an O’Brien ! Right - that was serious stuff in the 80s things have really changed !
Unsubscribed
Where's your comraderie decency and journalistic integrity James? I thought better of you. Clearly I was wrong. *BOYCOTT LBC*
Usually like James. His take on shoplifting was beyond superficial
Boomer
Oh shut up
Nobody cares 😂
If James O'Brien got a slap on a wrist why shouldn't everyone else, he seems to be condemning people for getting the same treatment he got. It might not seem relevant but as the numbers of people in population changed since then, that may have an impact on the statistics.
He was a minor he's talking about adults doing it
@@StrikingAlexathat's not true, he condemns a young kid at school, listen to the call in
I think this is not foreign to English politics! You colonised countries without any real knowledge of those countries and when you had to get out, you just drew lines and called the area within those lines a country. Not particularly intelligent!
Mr O'brain is exceedingly boring.
You have the internet world at your fingertips, yet you’ll listen to something you regard as exceedingly boring? You need to manage your time better.

I was hoping LBC would have another presenter.
