The right-wing media's 'cultish' defence of Boris Johnson is the UK's version of Donald Trump's 'stop the steal' campaign, according to James O'Brien. mrjamesob

"That fear that I have about the direction of travel and the fact we occasionally use the f-word when we discuss British politics...you get that fascistic movement, that fascistic direction when everybody becomes an enemy."

"I never thought I'd see the day that Conservative MPs...are getting the full enemies of the people treatment" he said. James declared the media-political campaign a "denial of observable reality" and urged listeners to "think about what that says about our democracy" for politicians to attack their own colleagues for judging whether Boris Johnson misled Parliament.

James O'Brien then paraphrased the Martin Niemöller poem First They Came, suggesting that those who would defend these MPs under scrutiny have disappeared, because the government and the right-wing media have castigated everyone who would possibly come out to condemn the action.Offering an analogy for the current state of British politics, James wondered if the UK has "reached our big lie moment".

"When a cultish newspaper defends a corrupt prime minister by calling for an independent investigation into his dishonesty to be curtailed, to be called off, to be undermined, that is the same as Donald Trump supporters believing him when he says he's been the victim of a big lie."

mrjamesob Let's all move on.

mrjamesob The left wing media's cultish witch-hunt to remove Boris, is the UK's version of the MSM in the USA's attacks on Trump.

mrjamesob we like him

mrjamesob Oh no surely can’t be can it. What am I saying of course it is . Rubbish the committee and say it’s people on there with issues about him. Couldn’t see this coming could we. Pampers BorisJohnson January 6th without the guns. Can’t see his Cult marching on parliament. OR CAN I.

peterjukes mrjamesob Not all journalists are so brainy and brave as James O'Brien, but if they showed the same professional drive for the truth and naming the things with their true names, the country would not be marching as far on the road to a dictatorship as it does now.

mrjamesob You mean like this creep, care to comment mrjamesob?

mrjamesob And we all know how that turned out 😅

mrjamesob

mrjamesob 'You are a complete cult!!' Absolutely PMSL, brilliant. Only found JoB in last few months, but rarely have i listened to anyone in the last 20yrs who talks so much commonsense on a daily basis. On the money every time, long may it continue

mrjamesob The similarities are striking and were documented in the US some while ago

mrjamesob The irony of remain fanatic James N'OBrain talking about cults.

mrjamesob Johnson needs to understand that his only mandate comes from the people of Uxbridge.....The right wing media can shove it

mrjamesob And the attacks on privilege committee mirror those by republicans on capitol attack inquiry. Condemn events originally for headlines, then do best to undermine investigation because they know truth hurts the party.

mrjamesob Only 3 mins till the BBC World Service ends today 😂😂

mrjamesob James O'Brien is a deranged remainer fanatic who promoted the lies of the paedophile Carl Beech, currently in prison for raping children, because he accused Leon Brittain and other 'right wingers' of being child abusers.

mrjamesob ‘cultish’ ?

mrjamesob What a tool!

mrjamesob James is utterly, absolutely, indisputably, without any doubt, completely correct.

mrjamesob What is a PATRIOT if domestic abusers love their partners. What is a fascist? Is fascism a freedom to far if you still want to be thankful to the sacrifice of others for your freedom to be a fascist.

mrjamesob Johnson and his criminal cabal , should be facing a long period in jail .

PatrickFbpe mrjamesob Custards last stand. Misery loves company.
