8 minutes in and its rubbish. Sychopantic reporter and mumbling uninteresting answers.

Have to agree with the following comments on youtube;

Michael Herron1 month ago

I know English is not his first language but his answers are about as insightful as a 4 year olds.

At 10 minutes Ozy.

Nothing in it so far - No reference to the issues in these camel races, the incredible conditions the workers suffered in the building trade and little about the crash that was illuminating.

Seems to be an advertorial piece for the most part.

If it improves let me know, as I am going back to the Darts and Romford.

How couldyou say that if you stopped at 10 mins, I'm surprised at you , gave you credit for been open minded ..A very unusual aspect , for me anyway was ,  Arab admitting they got ANYTHING wrong ..I think he deserves a little pat on the back for that alone ,also to allow a western journalist ask those questions shows great tolerance and a massive change compared to others Arab leaders ..What impressed me most was , his thoughts that the people had the right to remove leaders who didn't improve the peoples living standards , thats a very big door to leave open if you get my meaning ..His constant will to educate his people and make their lives the best in the world ...If only WE had a leader like Him...

For reasons expressed, it was unwatchable.  Mumbling, answers of a 4 yo, journalist laughing at his 'jokes', cam across like an advertorial as DV stated. Don't believe for one minute that remaining 20 mins were a significant improvement.

Don't know if you have ever been to Dubai, it was criminal how they treated those men brought in to build it.  They had a chance to do things right, or at least better. Instead they regressed to near slavery.

Sheikh Mo has habits that would make your toes curl, Wonks. knowing your religious disposition, I cannot imagine you would hold him in such high esteem if you knew more abut him.

well, if you had said the first 10 minutes were crap, but then it gets going, I might has persevered.  Instead you labelled the whole thing as 'fantastic'!

I will give the rest of it a listen to later to complete the puzzle, but the journo looked to be there enjoying himself and making friends.

A David Walsh/ Kimmage like discussion with Armstrong would make for interesting viewing.
