...Then bringing Vanessa Feltz in straight afterwards, and James O'Brien in a previous show suggesting to a caller who obliquely referenced the disappearance of Sangita, nothing to see here, she wasn't sacked over her robust interview with an Israeli spokesman! Though I do wish she would come clean and say why she appears to have suddenly lost her job, because listeners and fans as well as political pundits are completely discombobulated by it!

An Independent News organization can do whatever they want by definition. Is it even certain that that's what happened though..
The downfall of the Tory party as been compounded by every leader since 2010. David Cameron started the downfall by calling a referendum on the EU on a simple majority instead of a 60/40 which is usual for a referendum because of his arrogance that he could shut Nigel Farage up. Then we got Theresa May who caused the Windrush scandal as Home secretary, and achieved nothing as pm. Then Boris Johnson well got brexit done (well realy he got Britian done) and gave large contracts to his mates to supply PPE which cost a fortune and supplied nothing. Liz Truss who managed to almost destroy the economy in only 56 days, and forced mortgage rates to go through the roof when the Bank of England had to step in and take control causing inflation. Rishi Sunak was the last attempt who was out of his depth.

The Tories have created the division and energy that got them into power. No one really stood up against them. They have also created their own demise. It's a sad state of affairs that no one really stood up against them. It is all by their own hand. No one else did anything. I think this is a very depressing thought.

Labour are ahead because of the total lack of competence of the deplorable tory successive cabinets, I am more aligned with Labour but they don't impress me much to be honest.
One quick win would have been a proper windfall tax on oil and energy companies (no loopholes, tax on 70% of excess profits) and used the money for public services, primarily the NHS. Another one would have been to appoint competent cabinet ministers (eg. Tobias Ellwood types) instead of D grade incompetents.
Why is it that the business community never speak up about the need for immigrants? Every time out Gov announces the immigration number for the year, business always says we need more people, they would like 500k people.

I suspect the public were pretty lenient on the tories in this election. We know this isnt about the government, its local councils. I for one didnt vote based on my opinion of sunak and co. The GE could be a whole lot worse
One thing that totally surprises me that never gets mentioned on your show, but that Australians are very aware of - your Tory government is being advised on issues like how to deal with small boats in the most horrific way by our most spectacularly failed, lying, onion munching former PM Tony Abbott. It’d be like us asking Johnson to advise us on ethics. Mind you we’re happy for you to keep him.

there,s a conspiracy theory going round that sangita was sacked due falling listener figures.
Public stupidity is to blame
The actions and rhetoric of this current iteration of the Conservatives is pretty much the same as Cameron/Osborne onwards. Granted it wasn't as implicit as these days, but it was there nonetheless. Benefit claimants, immigration etc are always the go to scapegoats of ANY iteration of Conservatism. Also these days, there is the U.S. Republican style of politics that has increased exponentially these past ten years or so.

Mention was made of the 1 person lauded by wishy-washy rishi, being paid £3k to go to Rwanda. Skyscanner notes flights London to Rwanda being around £500. So he could afford a flight back to the UK, with two and a half grand in his pocket. Baring the fantastic headlines if he did fly back, would they give him another £3k to go back, just so they can cling to the BS that their plan is working?

1. Half of UK's gold reserves were sold between 1999 and 2002 in order to pay for crumbling schools and hospitals after 18 years of Tory ruin. 2. UK had the longest run of quarterly growth in GDP between 1997 and 2007, ended by the Great World Financial Crisis in 2008. Compare that with the tepid growth since 2010 despite huge increases in debt. 3. Tories had a chance to sell some remaining gold in 2011 when it reached a record high of $2000, but did not do anything. They also had a chance to buy more gold in 2015 when it halved to around $1000, but did not have the foresight.

Rishi as PM maybe responsible for less than 2% of the blame. The die was cast long before he became PM, as FM he bears a bigger share but not your question. He should have purged the EGR and the likes when he got the reins of the party. That would have been the parachute to activate.

Difficult to understand how James O'Brien finds himself able to continue with LBC after the disgraceful sacking of Sangita Myska. Shame on LBC and a whole heap of shame on James O'Brien who I once admired for not calling it out. I have unsubscribed from the LBC You Tube channel. To say that replacing her with Vanessa Feltz adds insult to injury is not sufficiently descriptive of the outrage. It says so much about the direction of the channel and it's no longer for me.
