No wonder that corpulent slug Ferrari is against working from home.

So they’re elbowing Ferrari out. Who could succeed that would most annoy his core audience? Peter Tatchell, Grace Blakeley or Gina Miller.
Heard Lembit Opik host a mid morning radio show in Kent or Essex, very likeable easy radio manner and was a politician. Should test him out.

I sincerely hope so. His show is like the fucking Daily Mail in radio show form, complete with asinine phone-ins about kids being “banned” from school for haviing funny hairstyles and artificially concocted rage about cyclists daring to want a measure of safety on the roads. He even talks about “snowflakes”.

I think we will probably need a source for Ferrari being ousted. He either is or he isn't.
I don't have access to these kinds of data any longer but I would imagine that Lard Arse builds both immediate reach and quick frequency amongst the core, males 45+ LBC audience, (racist taxi drivers and plasterers, basically).
JO'B extends the reach, I would imagine, in to demos the station would otherwise struggle with. The fact that he is so damned good helps build frequency against those audiences. These Appointment-to-Listen broadcasts are pretty much a thing of the past so, targeting younger ABC1 Adults, you could build a campaign around his show, alone.
I would suggest that he is entering Chris Evans c.1995 territory and can basically name his price.

Emily Maitlis and Jon Sopel join Andrew Marr in moving to LBC. I thought Sopel was being tipped as the next political editor of the BBC?
Are all these senior journalists leaving because they see the writing on the wall or am I reading too much into it?

I suspect being thrown under the bus by the powers that be after her Newsnight monologue may have had a bearing on Ms Maitlis, and I don't blame her.

I thought Sopel was favourite to replace Kuenssberg ?
At least, with Sopel & Maitlis, LBC is getting exponentially better. Now, if they’d just get rid of that massive cunt Ferrari…

Ferrari performs a service in that he acts as a response to the accusations that LBC is full of lefties.

You wonder after party gate he didn’t feel he could do another couple of years of a bumbling hostile leader.

And that horrible prick on before him Steve Allen. A nasty tirade of bitching at minor celebrities serving no purpose.
