Soft spoken Frankie….honestly scares me more then anything else

I can't tell if frankie is just sitting back and chilling or if he has lost his neck

We create a faux-morality because we know we can't affect anything that actually matters, like money laundering in the city or selling arms to dictatorships. FB is one insightful guy. We're lucky to have you, Frankie!

Frankie speaks a lot of truth

As a labour voter I honestly think the grenfel tower residents were let down by labour who started the policy of cladding buildings as a desperate attempt to make the city look nice for the olympics and all three parties who all had big roles to play in the local council, and the coalition government and the Tory government. They were let down by the whole system not one part of it and why isn’t there a contingency plan already in place for any event were a tower block can no longer be lived in. I know hindsight is a wonderful thing but aren’t councils supposed to think ahead? Their still probably isn’t a contingency plan now

I knew he was engaged and I have always liked him but listening to him speak here was impressive.

this actually made me really question my own attempts to be moral

Frankie genuinely looks like he's grooming him

You can say offensive jokes as he has and still have progressive and insightful ideas. He's a comedian, if he's on a stage he's joking, if he's off it listen to this guy. Comedians are usually very intelligent.

I love his views. Very clever man.

Good interview, insightful. I'm always interested to hear what Frankie Boyle has to say

One might make some assessment of the effectiveness of a channel by the trolling it receives. Well done Owen and Frankie, keep up the good work.

Loved it, well done m8!

Great interview!

Perspicacious as ever. The estimable Frankie Boyle ladies and gentlemen...

3:40 This is why having devolved government and increasing their election turnout in Scotland, Wales, London and now Greater Manchester is so damn important. Having a London Mayor and Assembly (which uses Proportional Representation voting system so your votes matter) for example who can use their powers to minimise the shit coming from the UK Conservatives and improve lives. It's a lifesaver for us Londoners.

@josiecooper8012

5 жыл бұрын

The problem with the fire wasn't the source, it was the materials used in construction that led to it spreading rapidly, very clearly not properly fire rated and exposed the cut corners in construction cost. So, no the entire fire wasn't Hotpoint's fault, because it should have been contained by the building. But still, having a product involved with a huge scale disaster like this, they probably did their due diligence in checking safety.

Presumably the comments criticising Frankie Boyle for his analysis of contemporary Britain and its rulers emanate from multilmillionaires who wish to perpetuate the status quo, which serves them splendidly. Or is someone missing something?

Owen old chap why don't you interview Douglas Murray

Very good interview. Most people think of Frankie Boyle as that Scottish bloke who tells offensive jokes, which he does, very well! But this definitely shows a whole different side to him, very insightful, top bloke who's talking a lot of sense.

Frankie Boyle is totally spot on when he says the Conservatives don't represent the interests of the ordinary man and woman in their constituencies. They are there to represent the interests of money, of capital. Grenfell is a prime example. Cameron's "bonfire of regulations" led to the government in 2012 "repealing the fire prevention measures in the London Building Act. Had they remained in place, the Grenfell fire is unlikely to have risen up the tower." There continue to be many organisations like the Red Tape Initiative, "a self serving clique of old chums, insulated from hazard by their extreme wealth", and who have significant interests in loosening regulations for their own profit, who are continuing to decide whether ordinary people should be exposed to more risks like this. www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/jul/05/grenfell-fire-public-inquiry-stitch-up-red-tape-regulation-policy-exchange

Am I dreaming or Britain is teasing itself if the nation should go back to stupid mode like in the era of British Leyland for example (70's & 80's)?Where everyone thinks Labour is the solution and it should be FREE FOR ALL... more like Free-fall! Some people talk about austerity? Do you really know what austerity feels like? Some sections of the society have NEVER been this lazy. Get a decent job or A JOB! Undermining governments NEVER did any good.

Owen Jones is a good lad asking the right questions. Frankie Boyle is an intellectual behemoth.

In Northern Ireland, unlike the rest of the UK, they do not have the main political parties of Britain representing them. There is no Conservatives, Labour, Lib Dems etc, it is the only part of the UK that has this weird situation all because of religion and whether you are a unionist or not. Democratic Unionist Party, Ulster Unionist Party, Sinn Fein, Alliance Party, Social Democratic and Labour Party, Traditional Unionist Voice - these are the parties. The Conservatives tried and failed to have any impact, the other UK parties just sit back knowing not to bother.

The pursuit of profit had nothing to do with the Grenfell Tower negligent manslaughters. It wasn't a private landlord was it? It was council. They aren't trying to make a profit off anything. If they had been there's no way they'd have take the risk of the inevitable massively lawsuits a private landlord would have to live with. Hell if it hadn't been subsidized housing every single resident would have moved out in fear for their lives.

If Grenfell Tower was full of middle class English people, Boyle would spend all his days writing jokes about it.

Owen starts by noting that Theresa's Premiership may be over by the time the video is released. Two years later and she's only just stepped down: illustrates the 'human shield' argument Frankie makes rather well.
