LBC caller hangs up on James O'Brien after failing to offer a Brexit benefit

James O'Brien hosts a phone in asking callers to identify the most memorable Tory moment from the last 14 years.

James hears from caller Anne, who argues that the Brexit vote was 'not ridiculous' and those who voted for it are 'quite intelligent and quite informed'.

James goes on to ask Anne to outline the 'best bit' of Brexit but she refuses to give him an example.

They argue back and forth for seven minutes before Anne hangs up...

LBC is the home of live debate around news and current affairs in the UK.

This woman is the type of woman to reply to people on Facebook claiming "you have been brainwashed" without being able to see the absolute irony

[akaski]

She’s the reason the country is broken

Welcome to Brexit Club. The first rule of Brexit Club is: you do not talk about Brexit benefits. The second rule of Brexit Club is: there ARE NO BENIFITS of Brexit!

[Solsbeary]

This woman is the definition of cognitive dissonance

[johnrussell]

8 years later and they want to applaud the Tories for given them something with no benefits!
It’s called a con.

[andrewleong]

That fact she’s allowed to vote is terrifying.

[michaelc]

She’s been reading Daily Mail anecdotes for fourteen years and thinks she know it all. Clueless.

[garryferrington]

"We're quite intelligent, we're quite informed." Really? Everyone thinks she's very silly.

[robertmolnar]

This is what reading The Daily Mail for 14 years does to the brain

[PeerAdder]

1:45 - "Name one?" "No, I'm not going to fall into that." Fall into what? The trap of actually backing up your ludicrous claims with some actual evidence?

[CharltonCharles]

People like Anne are why voting Tomorrow is so important.

[chrise]

Imagine having to deal with her at work. What a nightmare.

[gemmapike]

Another person with literally nothing to say but wants to broadcast it to the nation

[pplesandoranges]

Thank you for giggling openly and yawning when that woman blathered about Labour being responsible for the financial crisis that Sunak personally profited from.

[davidmacdonald]

I wonder why these people keep calling James.
If they’ve ever listened to the show, they know he’s going to (rightly) expect claims to be backed up.
But they call just to rant, then fumble when they realise they’re talking to an better-informed individual outside the bubble they’re used to.

[SoFarSoGoodSoWhat]

It's amazing how these people can blame what Gordon Brown did 15 years ago for the state of the country now, but they can't accept the impact of Brexit

[scottchegg]

12 years of free education and it produces things like this woman. 🙄

[rneumeye]

"Name one thing?" has to be the most brilliant and simple dismantling of any conservative argument Mr. O'Brien has ever discovered. 😏🏆

[georgeholmer]

Why do people still call up James O'Brien and think that they can say things like this and he won't call out their nonsense. And yeah, if you voted Brexit you are not "well informed".

[Stephen_Lafferty]

The saddest part about this video is that Anne will think that she is still correct in her beliefs and that she was just harassed by James O'Brien, despite her having no evidence to support her position.
