Labour defectors must stand for re-election, says Jeremy Corbyn

Hear hear. So must the Tory defectors. Bye bye Sour-Face Soubry. 👏🏻 She was on LBC as a guest presenter this morning and the hostility towards her was tangible. http://news.sky.com/story/labour-defectors-must-stand-for-re-election-says-jeremy-corbyn-11643512

Tangible hostility is one of the reasons she had to leave the party.

The hostility was from the callers.

I listened to most of that show, from what i heard 90% of the hostile people were older, white, angry men. Situation normal there then!Most of the women who called were supportive from what i heard, as were the young people.

Gammon Matt?🙄 Seriously though she was a terrible presenter considering she said radio presenting was her dream job. Far too much talking over the callers and arguing with them instead of debating. Tom Watson on the other hand was excellent yesterday.

Sue, I have listened to LBC a great deal over the past years.  It's interesting and provocative, but I'm not too sure about the presenters.  I CANNOT listen to that awful man in the morning, James O'Brien, nasty, rude, bullying.To quote LBC is not going to win your case(s).  Mind you, I do like Maajid (poor guy got beaten up recently for being "Pakistani")  Look up Quillian.

James O'Brien "nasty, rude, bullying?"Not when I've heard him, on the contrary he's tried to draw people out, quite calmly and politely, to get them to justify their arguments.  Perhaps you are listening to a different James O'Brien.
