Callers to LBC’s mid-morning show will henceforth have the pleasure of being patronised and talked over by SIR James O’Brien, following the imperious presenter’s decision to award himself a ‘long-overdue’ knighthood for ‘services to radio and always being right – particularly about Brexit’.
Sir James, whose supercilious approach to the radio phone-in genre has won him acclaim from identically-minded listeners around the world, also became a best-selling author recently, with his book; ‘How to be Self-Satisfied and Smug…..in a World Full of Nuance and Differing Opinions’.
We understand that Sir James took the decision to confer the knighthood upon himself, not because The King was too busy, but because of his concerns with Charles’ fallibility. He also urged His Majesty to call in to his show sometime, just in case any of his opinions do need correcting.
We at The Post have long been impressed with Sir James’ masterly command of the selection of facts that confirm his biases. We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate him on his achievement and wish him many more happy years of belittling plebs on the wireless.
