James O’Brien’s all-time classic takedown of this Brexit voter is the perfect illustration of how the country got where we are today
Brexit is back on the agenda today – of course it is! – after Labour leader wannabe Wes Streeting started wanging on about how Britain should eventually look to regain membership. Not now, Wes!
We mention it because it brought to mind James O”Brien’s devastating deconstruction of this particular caller, a Brexit voter called Richard, which went viral for reasons which will become obvious.
“You’re very rude to me, aren’t you?”

You’ll go a long way before finding another 1 minute and 52 seconds that perfectly illustrates how we got where we are today.
And these people surely said it best.
God l love this man! Taking down a Brexit voter not because he voted Brexit because he STILL doesn’t know why he voted or what it achieved or what damage it has done https://t.co/v71u0yv4fl
