LBC callers react to Suella Braverman's controversial speech to the National Conservatism movement in which she decried government department's displaying the LGBTQ+ Progress flag.

"Far, far too many Tory politicians agree, and still agree, that the Progress flag must be flown to be kind, to be inclusive," the former Home Secretary told the National Conservatism conference in Washington DC.

"The Progress flag says to me, it says to me one monstrous thing: That I was a member of a government that presided over the mutilation of children in our hospitals and from our schools."

    This first caller crying about bigots but was thinking of voting reform? 🤔
  • That last caller cooked. Absolutely spot on for the vast majority of the UK right now.
  • @dogblessamerica
    Wow the caller at the end was such a breath of fresh air. A lot of us feel the exact same way
  • @saffaboy2007
    This must be so awkward for Dale. His beloved party hates him, has always hated him yet he keeps shilling for them.
  • @laurastars
    'children who are being transed' ... credibility lost from this ridiculous caller
  • @phillydavison
    The trans community is so small that it just boggles my mind that people get so wound up by it.
  • @timaustin2000
    Second caller is everything wrong with this country.
  • @EdwardLindon
    Caller #2: "One last point. How can we tell parents of trans people how disgusting we think their children are?" The sense of victimhood is astonishing.
  • @ashroskell
    How can that first caller say Braverman did nothing about immigration when she was in office? She did loads! She made the asylum backlog five times longer, gave a cash fortune to a country with an atrocious human rights record for doing NOTHING, got fired for breaking the law, gained the enmity and distrust of the secret services, created Victorian prison hulks, made the most vulnerable people on Earth feel frightened and persecuted, whilst treating them like criminals and putting them in conditions that endangered their health and lives! Oh, and then she joined the people trying to bring down the Tories and sabotaged her own government, displaying the loyalty of a rattlesnake!
  • @colinmccall7824
    "A lot of leftie middle class people now in charge have all got trans childre😄n." Planet Zog calling! 😂
  • @Philigan87
    That first woman saying Braverman is a bigot, then saying she's going to vote reform, really is wild.
  • @ggunga7764
    People is worried about the cost of living not this bs!
  • @EdwardLindon
    I'm not surprised Iain gives Caller #3 full rein. The man is on fire and tells no lies.
  • @ashroskell
    That last caller was spot on. The Tories have paid the price for NOT checking the hate as it grew in their ranks. They just wanted the seats and took in any populist, any incompetent with cash, any, “personality politician,” and hang the consequences! He nailed it!
  • @jameshart3879
    7:35 the fact being trans is lefty is going to be a big shock to katlyn jenner
  • @JanoJ
    Caller #3 the TRUE voice of the man in the street. We just want to live safe and in prosperity.
  • @chrisd924
    And then they came for Iain... The Penny Drops...
