Since the Brexit vote I’ve found that LBC talk radio has everything that refugees from the BBC’s boring Radio 4 Today programme could want. Jacob Rees-Mogg is an occasional presenter, beamed in live from his Somerset manor house: “Barry in Woking is on the line: what say you, Barry?”
Once restricted to London, LBC now broadcasts across the country and no doubt the world via the internet. “Leading Britain’s conversation”, as its slogan goes.
It’s a commercial station and the presenters are allowed to have opinions. But there are no US-style “shock jocks” here – unless you count Nigel Farage.
