YouTube Description
as posted by the channelJames O'Brien questioned why the media seems more interesting in fighting about a song than discussing a woman who died of starvation.
Knitting together a series of the big stories of the week, James said the country needs to focus on the big issues, rather than manufactured outrage at non-stories.
And he suggested that the government are deliberately keeping stories like the "row" over Land of Hope and Glory on the front pages.
Speaking on his LBC show, he said: "I don't know if you've seen the latest little, fairly gross film released by the Home Office.
"A lot of the problems that are on the horizon, whether they are caused by coronavirus or whether they were caused by Brexit or whether they were caused by catastrophic political leadership at the moment, they're going to get worse unless we stop fighting about stupid stuff.
