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

Won’t be watching with Vanessa feltz on now, bring back Sangita- shame on LBC

[phillaysheo]

How can we live in a world where Vanessa Feltz is preferred over Sangita? Its like the triumph of stupidity over intellect...

[ShadowHasselhoff]

Bring back Sangita please - you’ll NEVER live this down otherwise.

Moral courage is simple and binary. You either have it, or you don’t.

[--Fish]

BRING BACK SANGITA! WE WANT SANGITA! WE WANT SANGITA! WE WANT SANGITA! BRING BACK SANGITA! JUSTICE FOR SANGITA! WE WANT SANGITA! LBC JUST DO THE RIGHT THING AND BRING BACK SANGITA!

[David-jhg]

unsubscribed..shame on u LBC for Sangita

[ferret]

Is O'Brien still saying no one would be sacked from LBC for asking Israeli officials difficult questions?

[beattrixer]

YES AND ISRAELI LOBBY GROUP INTERFERING IN BRITISH POLITICS

[Oprey]

Bring back Sangita and get rid of the Tory shill Feltz.

[ItsSafehands]

Justice for Sangita!

LBC - limiting Britons conversions.

[robertfmorton]

Replacing Sangita with Vanessa Feltz is truly sublime to ridiculous. Like replacing a fine wine with p*$$.

[peterjones]

Where is Sangita, Hello James where is Sangita?

[pittarak]

As far as I’m concerned LBC has lost all credibility as an independent news organisation due the sacking of Sangita.

The downfall of the Tory party as been compounded by every leader since 2010. David Cameron started the downfall by calling a referendum on the EU on a simple majority instead of a 60/40 which is usual for a referendum because of his arrogance that he could shut Nigel Farage up. Then we got Theresa May who caused the Windrush scandal as Home secretary, and achieved nothing as pm. Then Boris Johnson well got brexit done (well realy he got Britian done) and gave large contracts to his mates to supply PPE which cost a fortune and supplied nothing. Liz Truss who managed to almost destroy the economy in only 56 days, and forced mortgage rates to go through the roof when the Bank of England had to step in and take control causing inflation. Rishi Sunak was the last attempt who was out of his depth.

[michaelhoodleeder]

The Tories have created the division and energy that got them into power. No one really stood up against them. They have also created their own demise. It's a sad state of affairs that no one really stood up against them. It is all by their own hand. No one else did anything. I think this is a very depressing thought.

[moonshine]

Cameron, May, Boris, Truss and Sunak are to be blame for the crisis in the UK.

[emiebex]

Rishi Sunak is just a small part of a Bigger Problem.

[stevelondonse]

One quick win would have been a proper windfall tax on oil and energy companies (no loopholes, tax on 70% of excess profits) and used the money for public services, primarily the NHS.
Another one would have been to appoint competent cabinet ministers (eg. Tobias Ellwood types) instead of D grade incompetents.

[stephenwestland]

What could Rishi have done?

1. Be honest with the country about immigration and cancel the Rwanda scheme.
2. Admit that Brexit was a mistake.

[MrCOUNTYCORK]

Sanjita back again, journalists not propagandists

[achandler]

Two horse race! Vote the same get the same!
