LBC host and viral sensation James O’Brien has a personal message for you

Hi John, it’s James O’Brien here.

I won’t take up too much of your time. You’ve doubtless got more important things to do than read an email from me. But do I have an important request:

Like many others, I spent my Monday evening watching HOPE not hate’s new documentary, UNDERCOVER: Exposing the Far Right. It is quite extraordinary: devastating, gripping, and extremely moving.

In short, it really knocked me sideways. I have found new depths of empathy and respect for the staff, activists, and experts who put themselves in harm’s way to expose hate and division –– and the charlatans and extremists like “Tommy Robinson” who peddle it.

I know you appreciate what we’re up against, John. Only a few months ago racist riots ripped through our nation; ordinary people radicalised by misinformation online and in our media. More people need to understand the far right if we have any chance of challenging them – their tactics, their game plan, their lies.

So if you’ve seen the documentary already, could you share this on social media to encourage your friends to watch it too? We cannot be smug or complacent – everyone in Britain needs to see this film:

I’ll share via WhatsApp

I'll share on Facebook

And if you haven’t seen the documentary already, please consider giving it your time – you won’t regret it. Watch it here:

Watch on Channel 4 online

Thanks for your time today, John. On behalf of myself and the team at HOPE not hate, I’m so grateful for your ongoing commitment to challenging extremism and racism in our country.

With best wishes,

James

PS.
