Andrew Castle - Consumer Complaint for LBC - Head Office



SENDER
Nyree Delisi
This man is not a presenter, he's a racist animal. His behaviour towards black people is disgusting. It's not the first time he has done this and because you won't do anything towards taking him off air, he continues to disrespect and abuse black people. He's not alone, you allow Nick Ferrari and Ian Payne to do the same. I was very disturbed and disgusted to hear Andrew Castle shout at Nimco Ali on his show on Sat. 1st of May, 2021, when she tried to discuss a very important health issue regarding black people but which the failed tennis star, cut abruptly, in order to discuss Boris Johnsons bedroom tactics and when Nimco informed him that she was not there to discuss that, he laid into her aggressively, like he does with all black people, shouted at her, then cut her off. He obviously suffers with his nerves and should not be given such a position and be able to use it to promote his own far right antics. He is disgusting and you need to start listening. He actually should have had a call in regarding the subject raised but because he hates black people so much, he went on to talk about something else, which was not even relevant. When will you start taking notice of the complaints we make about your racist presenters? No one should ever have been subjected to what he did to Nimco Ali on Saturday. Disgusting, simply disgusting. Your presenters do not need to be racist to become popular, which is what they do. "Shock Jocks" are not necessary in 2021 given the fact that life in it self, is already providing us with enough topics to discuss. If your presenters are still using this method to gain popularity, they are failing in their role. The fact that LBC does not have one permanent full time presenter of colour, speaks for it self. Even some of your producers are racist by racial profiling callers who want to air their opinions.
