In a startlingly frank interview, Alastair Campbell talks to James O’Brien about his battle with depression and alcoholism, his breakdown, suicidal thoughts and his admiration for Roy Keane (and how all these things are related) | JOE.co.uk
All episodes - • Robert Webb interview ...
I respect how candidly he talks about his mental health.
You believe him? 😂😂😂
Insightful!
Well this awkward. I was that young momentum corbyn type that met Alastair in Brighton!
hello
What's with the sound quality?
theyre using unideal microhones, and have alastair's too low down. / they need to direct their mouths into the mics more.
It just sounds like Campbell has a cold
It would have probably sounded better with a pair of £3 lavalier mics. To me however it sounds like on top of the mic placement being poor that they have treated the audio some how; perhaps in an attempt to make it more listenable.
yeah think youre right, sounds like there's phase problems or something
Martin Fisher sounds alright to me
The best case scenario is that he knows he's done something terrible and the worst case scenario is that he doesn't. There really isn't a middle ground.
I can’t imagine me, as a woman, telling another woman that she’s an ‘alpha female’ lol
Would like to listen to this but the terrible audio quality is ruining it
When's Alistair Campbell's psychiatrist's book coming out?
I don't understand how you could be offended by my comment.
Or what your post has to do with mine.
I enjoyed that. Good interview.
Any blairite ought to recognise mcdonnell absolutely is bright. The guy is very sharp and hugely impressive like his politics or not
james o'brein makes my skin crawl
Absolutely love this interview. So honest and open. Brilliant, and quite touching.
The irony of Alistair Campbell complaining about anyone else triangulating, let alone Jeremy Corbyn, is unbelievable.
he was spot on though wasnt he
“What gives you hope?” “The younger generations give me hope” - He obviously hasn’t seen ‘Just tattoo of us’. I saw about 5 minutes of that and decided we’re all better off dead.
Fantastic interview, respect to both.
Top interview, comes across a talented guy.
Cool interview.
he should be writing his crappy memoirs from a prison cell , if he manages to wash the blood of his hands that is
Great interview.
You're right... great when it ended!
@@jasonkingshott244 it would be greater still if James had the guts to ask him about Iraq
All of the Unfiltered thumbnails but this one especially all look like some kind of sinister otherworldly Mulligan & O'Hare album cover. At what point did James think that was a sincere smile?
Very interesting
Excellent
Thanks Michael!
This man swung his whip harder than a national hunt jockey.
James O Brien why? Few if any now buy Campbell and Blair's story about going into Iraq.
Really enjoyed this !
So did I, the closing. a couple of tossers
Really rigorous interview. Well done James!!
In recent inerviews he comes across a lot more effectively than Blair.
love you both xxxx
Horrific scene. I wonder if Blair still does his 'Bush' walk.
Interviewer was great!! Almost got put off by the dodgy branding.
Campbell trying to convince himself that he has a soul!
I have never forgiven this man
Look at the state of these two.
Curious body language of Alastair Campbell in this speak. Still a heart throb tho.
LOL
Jesus christ
Mass murderers shouldn't be given the oxygen of publicity.
I wish he hadn't been caught up in the war crimes. No matter how reasonable he seems (not that I fully agree with him) - it's something that just can't be got round.
Sort your fucking sound out Joe FFS. How much does a decent mic cost these days?
Will Byrne I had no problem with making either of them out.
I didn't say I couldn't hear it. I said the sound is shit.
I cant bear to watch
I can't bear to listen .
"fool me once, it ur fault. Fool me twice, it's my fault". So we're supposed to listen to this guy?
Ten 10 Well you are commenting.
Essentially a plug for a book and not an interview. JOB does not ask Campbell about interventions in the Middle East and whether his view on invading Iraq has changed. There is no discussion of Gordon Brown's economic policy that ended with him throwing taxpayers' money at bank shareholders in the vain attempt to save his reputation and with defeat for Labour at the elections in 2010 and 2015. And JOB is far too well-brought up to mention Dr Kelly and the medical experts who question whether his death was suicide. Alastair Campbell is as vile a man as Dacre and with a good deal more blood on his hands.
i hate to say this but this seems so sycophantic to me - and the legacy is rather sad and disgraceful - alot of people did not want that iraq war - i realise the awful burden of political responsibility so will invite alastair to visit me - but i am not amused - i suggest that everybody read kim by kipling - you ll get a strong realisation of the importance of politics and geography
politics and war have been going on for a long time
Wow how bitter and out of touch is Allister Campbell!
Two beautiful characters
Explain!
😆😆😆LOL
Potato talks to Cranky devil
out the party now.
Hes no roy keane
10:30 - Alistair, do you remember the kinds of things you did when you ran the Labour Party? Why was it that you were the inspiration for Malcolm Tucker?
For chrissake get back into politics! We need more like you.
Centrist love affair
Give up guys in the bottom comments,
Poor little rich guy. Boo fucking hoo.
Two has been's discuss what could have been.
That's not depression that's your conscience .
Lets just call this programme '' Lets listen to the the Delusionals''
you're a loser
Well, that’s a whole lot of wishful thinking.
Roy Keane 39:30 . No great insight
He may be cold and unscrupulous but at least he had intelligence and a vision for the country unlike the politicians of today
Joe Navajo - he's a PM in waiting
Also not a fan of him but you are right, he is a leader and not just spinning on the dine of public opinion (will of the people ^tm) like may & corbyn
Explain!
How this guy gets airtime is beyond me, should be up in the Hague!
What for? Iraq? Kosovo?
Couldn't agree more. JOB is such a hypocrite.
Alistar is very plausible and convincing
Said nobody ever
Campbell, slimeball & gofer for Blair, propaganda is right up his street, no wonder he had a nervous breakdown.
Two lunatics ‘chat’ about bring mad.
Problem is 'Third Way Politics' is (for the time being at least) dead. 1997, that was, literally, 20 years ago. Plus you need to ask yourself why people accepted it so willingly. Remember that this was only 5-6 year after the final fall of the Soviet Union. The Economic Right had won.
Yet at the same time, there had been this complete reorientation vis a vis social standards. Gender equality, racial equality, LGBT equality; these were all being seen as standard. The Tories still being stuck in the 1950's. Hence that was what New Labour offered, the economics of the New Right mixed with the social permissiveness of the New Left. What could possibly go wrong?
Well here we are, a year after Brexit, still scratching our heads.
Mark Taylor You can’t blame Labour for Brexit.
Campbell is a hypocrite on every issue.
Apparently the energy output of O'Brien and Campbell's smugness, on the smugcunt scale, is equivalent to the output of a small nuclear energy plant. As for O'Brien's mussing that Corbyn had perhaps played a blinder on Brexit : - )
well goodnight James and goodnight Alastair......a bit too intense for me at this hour.
Nothing more than a chat between friends, both these people I just cannot stand. Alastair Campbell states his job was to control the news, reminds me of George Orwell's 1984.
i think that you ve hit the nail on the head in more ways than one - that is where we re at but it obviously has subtle or not so subtle differences - so it s ironic that catalonia is in the news - the 3 blocks was one of orwell s ideas where communication was extremely limited - so one block was always at war with another block but no one knew what the fuck was going on with the other block - this happened in the 2nd world war of course with the different treaties between stalin hitler and churchill - communism was really popular in various places in europe in the 20th century - i don t mean this in a judgemental sense - at the end of the day i think we would be under the german flag but hitler made the mistake of opening up another front - i think that what matters is that the present day politicians are hopeless and i don t criticise readily - they don t look after the people they represent - but let s be honest criminals don t either - they represent their family - everything stinks at the moment - i think we re at a crucial stage in the world - animals and trees are irrelevant - where i come from animals and trees were part of the picture - my main point is is that we are
Alastair is absolutely right about the impending Brexit disaster and the poor advise from Politicians surrounding the vote.
Still prefer Campbell to Blair, atleast he accepts SOME blame and is introspective. Blair still thinks he's a fucking angel.
That's like comparing shit to vomit.
Campbell is always interesting an intelligent.
Well, at least when you have two half-wits you're guaranteed to get a whole one.
Everyone's slowly coming round to the man..
Mr Corbs Bizarre, isn't it?
i'm one.
No chance. He's a schnake.
@Mr Corbs Campbells were renowned traitors to Scottish clans, and now they are renowned traitors to the UK they helped create. This Campbell's worst than Blair, since he was his advisor.
Jack Brown agree yeah, badly worded comment on my part, i meant even Campbell's coming round to Corbyn
So Blair's Liar-in-Chief Alastair Campbell is still around.
God Bless Dr. Kelly!
Truly awful. War criminal getting an easy ride. Shameful. Sickening to actually listen to.
Anti-Duhring Battalion But yet you did.
Two vile cowardly men
Old James O'Brien certainly knows how to picks some dodgy characters, this one is known as "Blair's liar in Chief".....sooner or later he will drag from out of the woodwork Peter Mandelson known as the prince of darkness and that was not a character from a Black Adder episode. How about John possibly one of the worst Prime Ministers ever Major. Alistair Campbell...full of BS. Does anyone care what he says, I thinks most people made that judgement years ago.
jason kingshott Yet here you are talking about it.
Interviewer talks and interrupts too much . . .
War criminal
Rehab rehab rehab.if think after this morning interview.he will need more treatment or a large drink.like junker he is a dishonest person with a drink problem.he advised blair to go to war.on a lie.and killed thousands of children.if I was part responsible for killing innocent children.i would hide in shame.his conflict should be how do I begin to ask for forgiveness for what I have done.the word you should hate is adviser to a mass murder.and corrupt politician.
totally agree
he's a political dinosaur, still living in the 90s
Luther Blissett As opposed to Corbyn, who has the exact same views as he did in the 70's.
As opposed to the Tories (and you), that are forever stuck in the 1930's.
Mark Taylor I'm not a Tory, I vote Labour
Cool story bro.
i like alastair
Well I think the Iraq War was catastrophic, but of course these Remoaners won't mention that. 😒
Absolutely right. pair of arrogant hypocrites
Love James o brien
By all moral law this man should not be given a platform. It is indecent that he walks free after being involved in what surely are war crimes with the illegal invasion of Iraq based on lies.
Here's a proposition for you Alistair. Save for Tony Blair's inner circle and core supporters, exactly the same people supported The Iraq War back in 2003 and Brexit today.
Most Remain voters would now vote Leave, fact.
Dodgy dossier..say no more Campbell
2 see you next tuesday's
