Description

James O'Brien's guide to talking to people with unchallenged opinions is a hilarious and invigorating read. Every day, he listens to people blaming hard-working immigrants for stealing their jobs while scrounging benefits, and pointing their fingers at the EU and feminists for destroying Britain. But what makes his daily LBC show essential listening is the incisive way he punctures their assumptions and dismantles their arguments live on air.

In this book, James provides a clear and concise guide to tackling the most contentious issues, from Brexit to feminism and beyond. He shows how people have been fooled into thinking the way they do, and outlines the key questions to ask to reveal fallacies, inconsistencies and double standards. Whether you're dealing with ardent Brexiteers, Daily Mail disciples or corporate cronies, this book is your conversation survival guide.
