James O'Brien analyses the 'worst Tory election campaign of our lifetimes' | LBC

- James O'Brien wonders how the Tories' 'extraordinarily bad' campaign has managed to become the 'worst of this generation'.
'14 years of getting everything they wanted and look where they are today', says James O'Brien, concluding the campaign 'has been reduced to a shower of charlatans and incompetence'.
This comes as one senior Tory party figure said it had been the 'worst campaign of his lifetime', criticising the decision to call the General Election early.
James O'Brien also reacts to the Tory's decision to criticise Keir Starmer for claiming he would aim to finish by 6pm on Fridays, should he be PM.
'You get a sense of just how broken the Tory establishment really is.'
'Imagine the headlines if a left-wing politician attacked a Jewish family for observing Friday night dinner,' James O'Brien points out, suggesting the Tories' reaction would differ if roles were reversed.

In fairness, the Tories have been a pack of lying, vicious incompetents for a long while. But this time around they kept saying the quiet part out loud.
The Tories are deflecting to save their skin. Everything they accuse labour of they have done the past 14 years. End of
They kept getting voted back in, its no surprise they took the British right for granted.
@@reiw5802 kept getting voted back in is the definition of madness, doing the same thing over and over again with the same political party and expecting a different result. The mind boggles 🤔
@@reiw5802 Never over estimate the ability of the average voter to vote against their own best interests.
@@IMBlakeleyI think you mean, "never underestimate..."
I'm 68 years old so have been able to vote for 50 years. 35 of those years (i.e. two thirds of my adult life) have been under a Tory government and the only time that I've felt prosperous and safe is when Labour were in power. So bring on a Labour government!
BTW I've also now voted twice to be in Europe and look where we are, out of Europe without a paddle.
I am 3 years older but my political journey mirrors yours. Like you I feel that leaving Europe was an act of national self harm- perhaps it was a cry for help because we thought the europeans didn't love us enough?
Imagine voting to be poorer and less free. Imagine being a Tory voter.
The Tories special power. They always find a way to get people to vote against their own interests. Their motto, borrowed from WC Fields is, "Never give a sucker an even break".
Labour will make us a third world country
They love Immigration Austerity. Our wages are suppressed and our public services are overwhelmed.
Cheap labour for international finance capitalism.
@@petelawless811 we already are.
@@petelawless811 evidence? considering everything got worse since labour lost the GE...
Torys deserve ZERO SEATS
I'd vote for that!!!!
If they can get just enough seats to keep reform out of the picture I'd consider that a win.
Better the devil you know than the demon funded by putin.
FOREVER!!!
I will not be satisfied that I have tried hard enough if they even get ONE VOTE.
I am praying (quite literally) for the LibDems as official opposition
Just two more days of the Tories being in power 🎉
Tories are in power until the King invites Starmer to form a new Government.
Which will be about 11.15am on Friday.
So 68 hours time.

I'm Jewish. And I feel that attacking a person with a Jewish family from observing Friday night dinner is getting very close to antisemitism.
Coming close? It's nail-on-the-head antisemitism.
I'm not Jewish, and I agree.
I'm not Jewish but I think Friday night dinner is something we would all benefit from, a lovely tradition.
usually I am skeptical of anything that starts with as a X person, .... but this time I think you right, it smells like antisemitism.
I'm an atheist and the attacks on someone wanting to have Friday evenings free if possible because they wants to have a meal with their wife and children whose wife happens to be Jewish doesn't verge on anti-semitism it is.
I don't think Sir Keir will be hiding in a fridge or trying to deal with a major international incident from the beach.
Excellent observation
I am positive if a major emergency occurred on a Friday he would be there. He has probably discussed this with his wife and family when he made the decision to run for office, and his wife will be well aware he will be home for dinner on Fridays unless something important is happening. It's called compromising so that both parties are aware of all the facts and agree with the final decision. Not something a Tory will be aware of.
No he will be making excuses as to why it’s not his fault like all the scandals he was involved in while he was in charge of the cps
@@petelawless811 Such as?

I have never known a time of a government being so cruel to a big percentage of the electorate, without any guilt or shame. I am 61.
I agree mate ages with you and never seen anything like it since the Thather days
@@paulgreen758 Okay I have an extra decade on both of you- and without doubt you are both right. The only Tory that had a modicum of decency in the last century was Reggie Maudling- he resigned when the police implicated him in political corruption!!
Me neither. I'm 63.
For me the banning of tents and proposing fines for the homeless was the apex of this cruelty
As well as sunaks comments during PMQd while the mother of a murdered child was present, it was just disgusting
Tories are the ultimate gaslighters.
They are claiming they will fix everything... That they broke... And then saying that we broke it?!
It's a bad joke. THEY are a bad joke

It took 14 years to run out of steam! The damage, especially Brexit, is collossal!
Well said 👏
Excellent and pithy summary.
.......not everyone, the top 30% will be looked after!!!
You need to tell Nick Ferrari this, he was spouting this nonsense
Pfff he’s already out the door and on his ninth hamburger. He wouldn’t be able to hear you over the sound of his own mastication
Exactly!
Ferrari is a Conservative. He admits it, so tune him out.
@@TrevorBarre there is Tory and there is peddling nonsense. It's okay to disagree with political ideals and policy but these strategies from a political commentator is pretty torrid
Ferrari is a waste of space. He shouldn’t be on LBC at all.
My local Tory candidate was bemoaning the lack of access to GP services, the state of the roads, and the lack of police. ALL OF THESE THINGS CAUSED BY HIS PARTY.
What a detestable party they all are and deserve to be consigned to the dustbin of history.
I'd save your final verdict until you've seen what 5 years of the other lots leaves us with......
@@Brian-om2hhmaybe a working NHS, reduction on the need for food banks, less people sleeping in the streets and signs that the country is less divisive. And if those who can have to pay a little more tax to make this happen that's ok with me.

@@Brian-om2hh I'd guess more than you've got now, sonny.
@@Brian-om2hhIt's so bad that the new government will not be able to fix it all in one term.
They are rotten to the core.
These Tories can’t get lower than a snakes belly.. Tories have destroyed tour country.
I actually like snakes (okay it's odd) Tories on the other hand well they are dangerous.
Considering the reason for Keir Starmer taking Friday nights off. The Conservative attack-line is wholly anti-Semitic. And not in the "stop criticising Israel" anti-Semitic. But genuinely anti-Semitic.
Don't talk ridiculous did you have to go to university to learn how to write such nonsense 😂😂😂
Kier starmer eats dinner on Fridays?
He spends time with his family. 😮
Does his depravity know no end?
Terrible, isn't it?
With the Tories the Weekend started on Friday and they were off to 2nd homes in the countryside
' FRIDAYGATE '
I know. Thank goodness that the Right Wing 'family values' advocates are so outraged by this. Whatever next??
Despite all that austerity, resulting in the destruction of so many local services such as libraries , swimming pools and youth clubs, the Tories have still managed to treble the National debt from £1 trillion to £3 trillion pounds during the past 14 years , much of this cash handed out to Tory donors and stooges.
most of it quite literally stolen
What an eye watering achievement! You might add they have paved the way for the Reform fascists to break into mainstream politics as well- something we are going to regret.
Not forgetting austerity destroyed large parts of the UKs retail industry, high streets, making thousands of retail staff unemployed, who they then called scroungers.
@@petefl1818 hate to be nice to the Tories but everyone deciding to shop on Amazon so they could stay on the sofa did far more to knacker the high street than they managed
Yeah it didn’t help but brains backwards and endlessly frustrating planning laws also don’t help either. It is nigh impossible to build anything in this country at this stage
Don't let the conservatives anywhere near parliament for what they have done to the people and the NHS
You don't remember Tony Blair cancelling a hospital building programme, along with several new ships for the Royal Navy, the last time he was in power then? Or his decision to throw Britain's doors wide open, in the name of multiculturalism? And can you explain why most Local Authorities who have declared bankruptcy, are Labour controlled? Just don't expect miracles over the next 5 years....because there won't be any.
James' response comes after Nick's hour focusing on how this was such a scandal. Please start calling out your colleagues!
Listen to how James craps himself when the first caller mentions Ferrari's biased coverage, he straight away shut it down. Despite it being utterly true.
@@mj-gb6trwhat was utterly true?
@@jgtemperton When the caller mentioned Ferrari's bias.
@@mj-gb6tr oh yeah.
I don't see why he has to specifically call out a colleague when the clear inference listeners can take from this is that he is in strong disagreement.
Why has no one pointed out that when Boris Johnson was elected he reportedly said that he didn’t work weekends?
Kier Starmer is obviously such a decent man.
Leave him alone.
I never imagined it would be possible for the Tories to run a worse campaign than Theresa May's Red, White and Blue Brexit, yet here we are.
Starmers campaign hasn't even started. Complacent springs to mind.
It could be worse, how about the Foreign Secretary insist on staying on holiday during an international crisis. Namely, Dominic Raab during the fall of Afghanistan
I saw my Tory candidate a couple of days ago, pretending to do some actual canvassing. I saw them walk past one side of our property (where they couldn’t see I was in the garden) and heard them say “I don’t think we’ll bother any more here” and off they trotted back to their nice car. Just sums them up really.
if Keir Starmer had come out on the campaign trail and said "if there was an ongoing National Emergency or an International Incident of dire importance, I would still clock off as soon as the clock struck 6PM and be rushing out the door", then maybe there'd be something to this.
but all they're doing is quoting him saying that he likes to make time for his family on a Friday evening..........that's it
Imagine the outrage in the Murdoch press if Keir Starmer had left the D Day commemorations early to rush home for an interview .😁😁
How many COBRA meetings about Covid did Bodybags Johnson fail to turn up to???
Boris was barley in the building when he was PM ffs
Exactly. Compare this to partygate
Well, if you have NOTHING else, you make a nothing-burger. It's a credit to Labour and Starmer (or a discredit to the dilligence and creativity of Tory campaign surveryors) if that is really all they managed to come up with.
I'd forgotten about the top table Tories who decided their holidays should take priority over the national need, this 'attack' has reminded me of them. Well done Tory Spin Physician Associates.
14 years. Awful? A disgrace.
5,170 days.
Yes agreed, but they were elected into power. You have to query the mentality of the British electorate. Yes I know about the failings of FPTP but this shower are about to go out under this system, so at any time when an election was called during the last 14 years the electorate could have tossed out these tossers but decided not to. Explanations please!
Toasted Tories.
Leave toast out of it- in 21st Century UK it is a staple diet for many and I am not being humourous (well maybe a bit/crumb)
Wow someone who make time for there family......how terrible!
But doesn’t care about victims families
what's a "there" family?
Imagine being in Office 14 years and having nothing to campaign positively about and having to reduce yourself to just making up lies and slurs about the opposition. That's a failed Government that knows it's failed.
Yesterday Sunak declared that he would still be prime minister on Friday and in the same breath he is expecting labour to have a super majority. Discuss.
I think he's on some sort of illegal substance, the kind that gives you hallucinations.
He will still be for a couple of hours on Friday morning...why not have a bet on when he concedes...I'm going for 3.00 am.
@@WATTSROBIN you are spot on but I do not think that is what the slimy toad meant😂
4,30 am consider concession speech - "I am just getting the blame for other boys who did it and ran away"
@@Peter-Ac Ha ha...just pointing out a technicality. I'm in Australia and will be making sure I'm up for the polls closing. I'm hoping for 97 plus.
SoonOut has obviously been down the bookies and backed a Labour Landslide - he's just making sure everybody turns out!
Its great to hear a leader that supports family and saying how important time with the family is.
I'm pleased he wants to protect that special time with his family on a Friday evening .
I'm sure if there was a urgent situation or an emergency in the UK or world he would attend to that and not be with his family.
Totally agree. I listened to Origin stories podcast on him and was really impressed at his work ethic and organisational/managerial skills. It also shows the importance he places on family and I imagine he would recognise that this country doesn’t have that any more, everyone’s stressed trying to make ends meet and so on.
This will be Tories in opposition - clickbait sound bites, bad faith feigned outrage, stirring up the gammon, and Boris spouting off hypocritical piffle in his newspaper.
Really? The hope is they'll not even get that far.
100%. And it will be incessant and increasingly strident. If the tories lose to the LibDems as the official opposition, then the establishment will go batshit. I wouldn't rule out the old power caste pulling levers with the police and hired provocateurs to pull a sort of British January 6th.
Fingers crossed it'll be the Lib Dems as the Opposition, and the Tories squablling with the SNP and DUP over who sits where on the back row.
Sounds like the Daily Mail, every day of every year.
Your racism has been reported
In what way is mocking religious practise not antisemetic?
Mocking any religious belief is free speech and frankly, absurd beliefs deserve to be ridiculed. That's how a society progresses
@@samedz3966 Free speech means you can't be arrested for criticising the government. That's it. That's all it means. It doesn't protect you from criticism or mockery, and it's not a licence to spout lies or hate. Isn't it odd how nobody who invokes "free speech" seems to have any idea what it really means?
If Britain was in the state that the Tories inherited it in when they took power under Cameron, they would be flying endless victory loops.
Yep so true.
We don't need to imagine how they acted. They ran cover for Johnson when he went on holiday every two weeks, including during Covid.
They all go home at weekends and home is NOT their constituency. Most of them catch the train on a Thursday afternoon, just to beat the rush.
@@KebabMusicLtdevery little helps with increasing the expenses claim.
It's funny that Nick Ferrari was on before James, and he was absolutely losing it over the fact he'd be having dinner with family after 6PM on a Friday.
And what gets me - Sir Kier will be upstairs in No 11 - so its not like he can't be called down in an emergency!
James shat himself when the caller mentioned Ferrari's biased coverage! Shut him down immediately.
It just highlights how pathetic the Tories are!
TACTICAL VOTING,
THIS TIME.
YESS.... ........ ....
ABSOLUTEMENT.
This is a huge opportunity. If Labour/Lib Dem/Green/SNP/Plaid Cymru voters vote tactically where necessary it would absolutely decimate the Tories.
I'm tactically voting Labour so the Tories and Reform party don't win the election.
The Tories reek of desperation
your right they will seize upon anything that they think their "supporters" will swallow , not content with saying downright lies they'll twist and manipulate any situation that keeps their grubby fingers in power
No they just reek.
Tories just appeal to peoples hate and fear. To be accepting of another religion and taking part on a regular basis shows compassion, thoughtfulness, and love of your family. That is a weakness to be attacked if you're a Tory
can you imaging if someone attacked Rishi Sunak because of his religion? There would be ourtage from the tories. I ask myself the same question every week. How low can the tories sink?
The Tories are pathetic and clutching at straws
Are they? Now that I have been told Sir Keir actually eats and spends time with his family I may vote Reform after all.
This is not a Sunak problem. This is a Cameron, Johnson, Truss problem and Sunak was just the final nail in the coffin.
To his credit, Sunak has done more than I expected him to in continuing to ruin the party.
I love that they're attacking a man for wanting to have time with his family
The one thing conservatives claim to want to protect in the past has been family values.
Guess they don't support families like they let on. They're still out here saying the quiet part out loud.
Their own fmaily values - the trust funds, the government contracts etc.
"Family values" is always code for putting the boot into single parents and LGBT+ people.
Tories want to spend time with their families-or at least their mistresses!
Maybe have a word with your colleague Nick Ferrari then. He seemed particularly offended by Starmer spending time with his family.
Ferrari is an arch Tory
How could it be anything else? They can't run on their record so what can they run on - lies.
Sunak fasts from Sunday until Tuesday, 'unnamed sources' say he gets nothing done on Mondays because he's too hungry to concentrate.
How has it come to this? We're run by stakeholders not government.
The West lives under oligarchy
It’s all project fear. They can’t defend their own record, so it’s all …it would be worse under labour.
Based on what? Life was miles better under the last Labour government. Such a lazy thing to say Labour will be no better.
@Sc25515 After 14 years of Tory Purgatory, I think I'll go with a Labour government. A vote for the CONservatives would be like shooting myself in my own foot!

Surely unless there's a national/international emergency going on then hes perfectly entitled to have Friday night dinner with his family, this is assuming hes PM next Friday morning of course.
Just a reminder: Parliament doesn’t sit on Fridays.

Impossible to say which one on that list I dislike the most..oh sorry..It's Gove..
How could you leave Patel off that List!!!!
The only way Starmer's Friday night dinner could be used as a potential weapon against him would be to suggest that his family ties made him more sympathetic to Israel's behaviour than he might otherwise be. The fact is that the right wing - both polticians and media - are so unwilling to condemn Israel's actions (whilst accepting their right to reasonably defend themselves) that it would be ridiculous to condemn Starmer for taking a view that they openly espouse so they are forced to make up Friday night attacks by Russia on Brighton beach or Martians landing on Salisbury Plain. Roll on Friday... Bye bye Tories 🙋
Another positive story for the character of the future PM. He will need a fair share of luck, but he deserves the chance to improve the country.
Petrol Prices. Inability to Afford Food. Waterborne Dysentery. All Tory Anti Obesity Policies !!!
Just when I thought the Tories couldn't get any lower, we get this. Pathetic and disgraceful behaviour from the Tories.
Maybe it would help if your high court just declares your head of state above the law. We did that yesterday in the US and I can’t see that ever going badly. 🤦🏻♂️
You cannot let him win in November please from UK , he’ll never leave. Appalling corruption on the part of Supreme Court. He’s a Putin enabler and it’s terrifying.
Our head of state is already above the law. However we don't give them executive powers. Clever eh?
On the plus side, Biden also benefits from that immunity. So hopefully, he can have Trump liquidated in the near future, and then immediately absolve himself.

A fool and their power may soon be separated. This is just the pain of disbelief.

It is not entirely surprising that the party of Johnson see valuing family life and being respectful of traditions as a political defect.
Sad isn’t it ?
The Tories only ever invoke "family values" as a reason to kick LGBT+ people, so they dont know what the phrase should mean.
Whatever you don't vote blue

Me too. If you listen to podcasts I was listening to Origin Stories on him and that really made me admire him, tremendous work ethic and skill set for management (Tories absolutely hopeless).
how is this even a story?? breaking news he has dinner on a friday???
This a joke?
The Cauliflower was pushing this pathetic little trope earlier on by which time it had been transmogrified into Starmer only wanting to work a 4 day week. I had to be physically restrained from screaming "well that's 3½ more than Bunter then" out in the street.
I'd like to be part of Europe again. Let's get that sorted out. It's not an unelectable issue. Just a blummin sensible idea
I caught myself listening to James O'Brien and being overwhelmed by the sensation of listening to A Prairie Home companion. The pace, cadence if you will, and tone in wry poetry and prose of Garisson Keillor's account of imaginary Lake Wobegon's vicissitudes, so perfectly channeled and emulated by James O'Brien into a stream of very much true reality of UK's goverment woes and this week's election outlook. It is almost literature!
I don,t see the Tory campaign as awful. Watching them digging an even deeper hole for themseves, is great comedy, like a sketch from Monty Python.
Was it Sir Keir who dashed home early from D Day to record a self serving (but actually laughable) interview? And yet they have the gall to say he'd be a part time PM. Joke.
The party of family values, ladies and gentlemen.
The USA and the United Kingdom are facing the same dilemma: choosing between two rotten apples 🍏 🍎 !

I asked a Torie voter/Brexiteer why they were so angry 5 years ago, after getting everything they wanted. It actually shut them up. Nice!
I often do the "I thought you knew what you were voting for? Own it." bit when they moan that Brexit hasn't been done properly!
@@paulwilliams8389 If they voted for the Tories back in 2019, then that line is completely empty. Johnson won that election on the promise of the deal and his party being in power. Both still hold true: his deal and his party.
If brexit was not done properly then it simply means that they lied and the ones who voted for them fell for the lies.
Not that any brexiteer would admit that.
They just moved onto "Brexit only failed because the Remain voters were psychically projecting too much negative energy", or something.
@@Nice0n3 My neighbor voted leave. Lovely guy, by his own admission, was lied to. He was a lecturer and said that huge amounts of propaganda leaflets and pressure from the high ups persuaded many to vote leave. After the lies became apparent he left his position. That was the level of misinformation sold to very intelligent people. For this reason, those that were complicit in engineering leaving the EU, the opportunists, MP's and media should be behind bars imo.
Nick can you come back in the studio for a second please 😂
I think they have had it their own way for so long they are no longer used to fighting for it. They feel entitled to it.

Nice to see your being so sensible!!!
Sadly, it appears that a lot of people have decided that politics IS nothing more than a Punch and Judy show, and not to be taken any more seriously than that.
The "they're all as bad as each other" cynicism the Tories have left is going to be dangerous too. That's how Russian-backed populists get a foot in the door.
What's the difference between Death and Everyday Life ? The Tories can't make Death any Worse😒
So, Starmer tries to have one definitive family dinner and evening with his family at least once a week, preferably Friday as a religious obligation. How horrible.
What a scoundrel! The Empire is done for!
When you do sweet FA for 14 years there’s nothing to fall back on
I respect Starmer for putting his family and their religion first. It’s important and says a lot about him.
It’s the very best election campaign in my lifetime. I’m eternally grateful to the tories for being so absolutely risible and showing everyone how bent and corrupt and inept they are. Hats off to sunak for presiding over this mess
