    Have no faith in O'Brien. He's like the wind and also remember who owns LBC. It is part of Global who now own most of the UK's commercial radio stations.

    The Tabor family are the owners of Global - bookmaking, horse breeding and racing.

    The father - Michael Tabor was brought up in Forest Gate in east London, the son of a glassmaker. Tabor's grandparents were Russian-Jewish immigrants, originally called Taborosky, who had moved to London from Vilna, Russia. He was educated at East Ham Grammar School, leaving when he was 15 to get a job in the local Co-op.He was nearly a hairdresser, enrolling at the Morris School of Hairdressing in Piccadilly, but instead turned to bookmaking. Tabor's father had for a time been in partnership with a bookmaker at Romford Greyhound Stadium
    and Tabor himself became interested in gambling in his teens, spending Monday and Friday afternoons at Hendon's greyhound stadium in north London and regularly attending the track at White City. (Wikipedia)

    Murdoch owns News UK - Talk Radio, the Times and Sunday Times and Sky.

    Isn't it good to have such independent and impartial owners controlling what we look at, read and hear?
