Radio Phone-ins
Known as "George from Hampstead", or in light of his Belfast referendum plans "George Looney", he is a regular caller to the Clive Bull show on London radio station LBC, promoting his latest political ideas. He also calls talkSPORT late at night, most often to speak to George Galloway or whoever is presenting the 1-5am slot. However, he is usually referred to as "Rainbow George" when calling that station. Occasionally he phones BBC Radio Five Live where he is treated as a normal caller and usually gets cut off as soon as he attempts to publicise his own political agenda.
On 13 August 2007 George phoned in and revealed his plans for London in the year 2020, which included turning the M25 into a "wonderwall" and London becoming "the party capital of the world", financed by "the bank of a zillion wonders" in which everyone would be an account holder and "the wonder" would be the base currency with a rate of one hundred "gasps" to the "wonder".
Rainbow George also calls BBC London 94.9 a lot at night time and sometimes in the daytime. During 2012, he has called the Nick Abbott show on LBC, using the pseudonym 'Sterling Silver'

Famous quotes containing the word radio:
“Having a thirteen-year-old in the family is like having a general-admission ticket to the movies, radio and TV. You get to understand that the glittering new arts of our civilization are directed to the teen-agers, and by their suffrage they stand or fall.”
—Max Lerner (b. 1902)
