James O’Brien’s magnificent takedown of this clueless Brexit voter has just gone viral again and it’s simply a masterclass in this sort of thing
It’s been 10 years since the Brexit vote and we’re still writing about it. Don’t blame us, blame Brexit!
But if ever there was an urgent need to revisit it, just for a minute and a bit, it’s surely this, LBC presenter James O’Brien’s magnificent takedown of this particular Brexit voter called Richard.
And when we say it’s a masterclass in this sort of thing, that is no exaggeration. Because … enjoy.

I’m not the best fan of James O’Brien but prove him wrong. Any Brexit voter tell me how we’ve benefited from Brexit…. Go

iAgree with James – I’m not impressed with anyone clinging on to BreXit – we knew it was BolloX – we said it would be BolloX & it turned out to be complete BolloX – WTF is to like about it? 💔✖️
