All this taxation/theft and nothing but ever declining services and living standards to show for it.
Just ever increasing government debt.
When is enough enough?
Thank you, Rowley, you’ve just made my point.
You’ve described British culture as a blend of history, manners, customs, and civic values, the very things James O’Brien sneers at as undefinable. And yet, somehow, we all know what you mean.
So when someone says that mass immigration is eroding those things, maybe pause before mocking them. Because if culture can be felt, named, and passed on (as you’ve just shown), it can also be lost.
And denying that is just ideology pretending to be intellect.
'Why can't you tell me what it is? You're criticising people who don't know, so you must be able to tell me.'
Caller Patrick says many migrants 'don't understand the culture of the UK', so James O'Brien challenges him to explain what this 'culture' actually is...
@TheGriftReport Jesus Chris, someone employ that lad into the police, for chasing down that dirty theif. Then the rotund police officer turns up 10 minutes later, out of breath.
@Wilbaforce12@LBC British culture is a blend of diverse influences, encompassing core values like democracy, individual liberty, and respect for the rule of law. It's also characterized by a strong sense of community, polite manners, and a unique blend of traditional customs with modern influences
“If you can’t define it, does it exist?”
That’s the game James O’Brien plays; he demands “explain British culture” before he’s allowed to lament its decline. But this is sophistry posing as insight.
Culture is not an IKEA manual. It’s not something you assemble out of flat-packed parts and bullet points. It’s the accumulated weight of memory, manner, myth, and meaning woven into speech, silence, humour, mourning, ritual, resentment, and love. You inherit it long before you understand it. You live inside it, like language or gravity.
So when someone says, “Many migrants don’t understand our culture,” they’re not offering a thesis; they’re describing a felt dissonance. And they’re right to. Because culture is not just food or flags. It’s how we know when a smile is sincere. It’s how we instinctively form a queue. It’s why we laugh at what we laugh at. It’s our relationship to the past, to authority, to irony, to one another.
To demand a full definition of culture before acknowledging its erosion is like asking a man to define “heat” before you admit the house is on fire.
So the next time someone like O’Brien sneers, “What is British culture, then?” know this, he isn’t asking because he wants to understand. He’s asking because he wants you to doubt it ever existed.
@beanerbgon@RadioGenoa And yet between 1994 and 2025, there have been 140 reported jihadist attacks or plots in the United States. 9/11 being one of them. Also, don’t you have a black on white murder rate that is somehow spiralling out of control? Or is that fake news as well?
UK Citizen says new Muslim illegal immigrants are shouting for Sharia Law in their streets
“Now explain something to me, why some people want the Sharia Law in the UK when you have the same Sharia Law in your own country. You can go back to your own country and live under the Sharia Law.
But why do you scream Sharia Law in the UK? The UK doesn’t want Sharia Law, so stop it. No one wants the Sharia Law in the UK. So I do not understand when they keep shouting, oh, Sharia Law in the UK. Shut up. No one wants it.
You want Sharia Law, go back to your own country. Simple as that. Yeah. Unbelievable.”
@BellaSue455765@iAnonPatriot Ok, if the US pays the $300k per black person that has relatives that have been caught up in the slave trade and can prove the lineage going back to the plantations. At that point, all social unemployment and additional benefits stop, including child support. Save trillions $$$$$
@iAnonPatriot She can’t even read for F’s sake. Also, does she not understand that rich folk have money to buy shit hot legal teams. I think someone needs to have a chat with her!!!
@FrakkJason47117@LBC James O’Brien is the epitome of of left and would have every ounce of the worlds dregs come into this country. Even if he was stabbed by the knife gangs swarming all of our major cities, he’d most likely welcome it. The only answer is the US model of mass deportation/ no messing
@LBC O'Brien's got a point. Starmer's chasing a unicorn made of "zero" while forgetting those already here aren't disappearing into thin air. Perhaps focus on integration, not just aspiration? The "uncomfortable" feeling might just be unfamiliarity.
"We’re royally screwed…"
"Even if the net migration figures come down to zero, where are all the people currently making you feel 'uncomfortable' going to go?"
James O’Brien worries that Keir Starmer’s plan to reduce migration will backfire.
STARMER TO "SURRENDER" TO THE EU?
Keir Starmer looking to "Swiss model of paying into the Brussels budget"
Paying in £millions per year & taking rules from the EU - for "access to the Single Market". Which we already have!
NOBODY VOTED FOR THIS!
