Perhaps he is getting nervous after the Daily Telegraph reported this. Sorry for the sizing switches as it was behind a paywall.

Darren Singer, a veteran media executive who previously worked at the Guardian, stepped down as chief financial officer in July.
He has been replaced by Ben Porter, a former Rupert Murdoch lieutenant at Foxtel and Sky.
I like him. He’s probably not suited to a typical LBC-style show but he is a very good reporter. So what if he was involved with the Labour Party? As long as that doesn’t affect his reporting (and no, criticising the Tory government does not automatically make you a Labourite) it shouldn’t matter. Anyway we’re not exactly short of Tories in our media.Indeed. Plus he speaks way too fast, gave me a headache after 10 minutes.
He must have been hitting the Grey Goose hard to come up with such maudlin twaddle. Twitter users 'vulnerable'.James seems to be describing himself as vulnerable and isolated.

Pretty sure I saw a picture of him and some woman up an alley doing "romantic" things. Shortly after, he had a stroke and the loyal wife stepped in. He's a lucky man.Afterwards Marr was proclaiming how his wife was his soulmate. Needed someone to look after him after his stroke, more like. Was it caused by his silly exercise craze?
Overall he seems to be quite an unpleasant piece of work.
Those two never miss out on a freebie, trust me. Surprised Matt Frei wasn't there also, he's good mates with Maitliss and Sopel.Emily Maitlis and Jon Sopel both attended George Osborne's wedding.
He has a degree in Theology from Cambridge.I just can't warm to Swarbrick. He's like the Dan Walker of radio broadcasting. He's not a god-botherer is he? He has that supercillious Christian vibe about him.
Ali is the regular presenter for this weekend slot but he seems to be the weekday go-to for when Iain, Tom et al are away; hence we early birds occasionally wake up to rubbish when Ali has Sat/Sun off.Does Claire Foges still do the Saturday 4-7 slot? I don't think Marina Purkiss is still around?
Ali Miraj was on the early shift this morning. No Oli again...Hooray!
Marina PurrKiss?He's probably shagging some intern in the toilet again.![]()
Oh. I can't see anything below J O'B's comment2 hours ago he wa already back with a ...
I thought we knew all this already? I think they are a pair well matched.This has just come to light, from September 2022.
