Phone-in caller who wants to bring back hanging destroys himself with his own words and it’s brilliant

This is one minute and 46 seconds very, very well spent. It’s a caller to James O’Brien’s show on LBC who wants to make the most out of Brexit by bringing back the death penalty.

And he wants to do it in the Budget.

But that’s enough from us, have a listen for yourself. You’ll be punching the air by the end, although you might also want to punch yourself in the face.

“Now that we’ve left we can bring back the death penalty”
“When did abolish it”
“1960s”
“And when join the EU”
“1970s”
“Who would you kill first”
“Rose West”
“I think she’s dead”
…
“Nevertheless my point stands, bye”pic.twitter.com/Z4IRu7Ko1y

Simply glorious.

I"ve always thought, the only thing that could deter a suicide bomber was the death penalty.

"What, in the Budget?" – beautiful comic timing from O'Brien.

Yeah it's a different world now. Whoever heard of there being terrorism in the 1970s?

And as many people pointed out about Rose West …

[i know she’s alive, but the caller didn’t]

To conclude, this.

My favourite caller this year
