1 00:00:00,799 --> 00:00:03,520 comrades and 2 00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:09,639 friends first of all I'd like to thank 3 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:13,679 njel 4 00:00:09,639 --> 00:00:18,439 farage very sincerely for his kind 5 00:00:13,679 --> 00:00:24,000 welcome the more generous because Nigel 6 00:00:18,439 --> 00:00:28,000 and I agree on hardly anything at 7 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:31,759 all but we do agree at least on one 8 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:36,640 thing and it happens to be the most 9 00:00:31,759 --> 00:00:39,640 important thing not only now but in the 10 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:43,120 lifetime of everyone in this Hall and 11 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:46,120 everyone in this country it is the 12 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:49,039 demand that Britain should be an 13 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:51,600 independent Sovereign and Democratic 14 00:00:49,039 --> 00:00:55,120 country and that means leaving the 15 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:55,120 European Union 16 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:08,200 in this Hall as in this 17 00:01:04,239 --> 00:01:12,159 country all of us will have different 18 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:16,439 visions of what our country could be 19 00:01:12,159 --> 00:01:19,240 should be but the fundamental point is 20 00:01:16,439 --> 00:01:21,960 none of us here in this Hall none of us 21 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:26,040 here in this country are in a position 22 00:01:21,960 --> 00:01:30,000 to decide which vision of Britain should 23 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:36,280 come to pass because that power has been 24 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:40,680 given away to a lavishly funded 25 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:44,320 bureaucratic state to a toothless 26 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:48,040 fantastically financed pseudo 27 00:01:44,320 --> 00:01:51,759 Parliament and to a council of 28 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:53,079 Ministers of countries which to be fair 29 00:01:51,759 --> 00:01:56,439 how could it be 30 00:01:53,079 --> 00:02:00,079 otherwise act in their own national 31 00:01:56,439 --> 00:02:04,000 interests rather than ours and that that 32 00:02:00,079 --> 00:02:07,640 means that our independence as a country 33 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:11,280 is no more and we have an exit door as 34 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:14,400 Nigel just said and if we don't take it 35 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:18,000 then we and our children and their 36 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:21,040 children will lament and regret that we 37 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:26,440 did not take that opportunity which now 38 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:26,440 comes before us on the 24th of 39 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:36,640 J I uh 40 00:02:30,640 --> 00:02:39,000 I wanted to be here to nail the lie that 41 00:02:36,640 --> 00:02:43,680 to be on this side of the 42 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:45,400 argument is to be on the political 43 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,879 right I 44 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:50,200 Fought The 45 00:02:47,879 --> 00:02:53,120 1975 46 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:56,599 referendum behind my then 47 00:02:53,120 --> 00:03:00,360 leader the late and great right 48 00:02:56,599 --> 00:03:03,350 honorable Tony Ben and it's in in memory 49 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:06,620 of him that I'm standing here

00:03:25,799 1975 and this I must 54 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:31,040 say but for Nigel farage we would not be 55 00:03:25,799 --> 00:03:31,040 having a referendum on this question 56 00:03:41,519 --> 00:03:46,120 I want to nail the lie that being a 57 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:49,519 member of the European Union has 58 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:52,159 anything to do with left as my friend 59 00:03:49,519 --> 00:03:55,239 for nearly 40 years though she was 60 00:03:52,159 --> 00:04:01,480 obviously a child then G 61 00:03:55,239 --> 00:04:04,640 to pointed out what's left about ttip 62 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:07,079 allowing American corporations to smash 63 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:10,040 down the doors of the National Health 64 00:04:07,079 --> 00:04:14,720 Service and privatize what they like 65 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:14,720 with the power of law behind 66 00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:23,040 them what's left about driving down 67 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:27,680 workers wages and 68 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:31,400 conditions what's left about a 69 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:33,919 situation and you know this I must say I 70 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,199 know that this is one of my differences 71 00:04:33,919 --> 00:04:39,759 with 72 00:04:35,199 --> 00:04:42,000 Nigel I have not just respect but love 73 00:04:39,759 --> 00:04:45,479 for the people of 74 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:48,199 Romania I'm the only person in this room 75 00:04:45,479 --> 00:04:49,880 that has published a book in the 76 00:04:48,199 --> 00:04:55,039 Romanian 77 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:58,720 language I even speak a little bit of 78 00:04:55,039 --> 00:05:00,479 Romanian but I cannot agree to 79 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:03,280 subcontract 80 00:05:00,479 --> 00:05:06,320 to the Romanian government the right to 81 00:05:03,280 --> 00:05:09,800 decide who can come and live and work in 82 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:12,759 Britain who we can Deport from Britain 83 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:15,759 what level of deficit we can run in 84 00:05:12,759 --> 00:05:21,039 Britain or what our foreign policy in 85 00:05:15,759 --> 00:05:21,039 Britain should be that I cannot 86 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:33,960 do I want to nail the 87 00:05:31,039 --> 00:05:37,600 that to be on this side of the 88 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:42,000 argument is to wallow in 89 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:44,919 nationalism as a matter of fact I hate 90 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:48,960 nationalism I fought Scottish 91 00:05:44,919 --> 00:05:51,919 nationalism all my life and I helped win 92 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:55,919 the referendum in Scotland in 93 00:05:51,919 --> 00:06:00,919 2014 defeating Scottish nationalism I 94 00:05:55,919 --> 00:06:04,639 hope to help win this referendum 95 00:06:00,919 --> 00:06:08,319 in a few months time that's why I'm 96 00:06:04,639 --> 00:06:11,039 pleased to say I have yesterday on 97 00:06:08,319 --> 00:06:14,280 behalf of my party signed up as an 98 00:06:11,039 --> 00:06:16,599 affiliate of Grassroots out and I hope 99 00:06:14,280 --> 00:06:20,080 that the Electoral commission will give 100 00:06:16,599 --> 00:06:23,240 this broadly based all party campaign 101 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:26,240 the designation of the official out 102 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,240 campaign 103 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:39,360 but neither am I a British 104 00:06:36,840 --> 00:06:42,240 nationalist being a 105 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:44,800 Scotsman from Irish 106 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,880 background I can hardly be called a 107 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:50,240 little 108 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:52,960 Englander there is nothing 109 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:56,039 internationalist about locking yourself 110 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:58,360 out of the world there is nothing 111 00:06:56,039 --> 00:07:00,360 internationalist about locking yourself 112 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:04,479 in although the locks seem to have 113 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:08,479 broken into a rich man's club in a part 114 00:07:04,479 --> 00:07:11,360 of Europe I want the world to be our 115 00:07:08,479 --> 00:07:13,840 oyster I want to trade with the 116 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:16,280 Commonwealth that we so shamefully 117 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:19,280 abandoned when we joined the European 118 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,280 Union in 119 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:28,639 1975 I want to 120 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:31,919 trade with Brazil with Russia with India 121 00:07:28,639 --> 00:07:35,759 with China with South Africa with Iran 122 00:07:31,919 --> 00:07:38,960 where the sun is rising not setting and 123 00:07:35,759 --> 00:07:42,479 where most of the customers in the world 124 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:46,199 actually live so we will not be cutting 125 00:07:42,479 --> 00:07:49,159 ourself off from anything if we leave 126 00:07:46,199 --> 00:07:52,319 the European Union we will be opening 127 00:07:49,159 --> 00:07:54,919 ourselves to the entire world now that 128 00:07:52,319 --> 00:07:54,919 is 129 00:07:57,759 --> 00:08:01,800 internationalism now 130 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:05,280 I 131 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:08,680 mentioned I mentioned the eurocrats 132 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:12,080 I was a member of the British Parliament 133 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:15,120 for almost 30 years and I woke up one 134 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:19,440 morning to discover that somebody called 135 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:22,919 Katherine Ashton was now my foreign 136 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:26,280 minister like Nigel in the wonderful 137 00:08:22,919 --> 00:08:27,360 footage you just saw my question was who 138 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,199 are 139 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:34,000 you who elected you 140 00:08:30,199 --> 00:08:37,320 who can remove you and I watched as this 141 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:40,719 person I'd never held of before on our 142 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:43,240 behalf dragged us into one 143 00:08:40,719 --> 00:08:46,880 confrontation after another with one 144 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:48,320 adversary after another now to be fair 145 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:52,200 it may very well 146 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:54,480 be the the British government maybe any 147 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:57,120 British government certainly in recent 148 00:08:54,480 --> 00:09:00,200 years would have taken us into those 149 00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:02,600 same confrontations but at least I could 150 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:06,279 have fought against that here and 151 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:09,320 Parliament could have overturned that 152 00:09:06,279 --> 00:09:11,600 there and David Davis has left a man I 153 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:15,279 greatly love and 154 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:18,920 respect David Davis and I were part of 155 00:09:15,279 --> 00:09:24,000 an epic debate in 156 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:28,200 2014 when that genius Cameron tried to 157 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:30,160 persuade us to become the Air Force for 158 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:33,200 Isis and Al-Qaeda 159 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:36,720 and start bombing Syria the American Air 160 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:39,240 Force was warming up on the tarmac just 161 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:42,120 waiting for a rubber stamp from the 162 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:45,880 British Parliament of David Cameron's 163 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:48,839 point of view but in an epic debate in 164 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:51,720 which speeches changed the 165 00:09:48,839 --> 00:09:55,760 outcome his speech and my speech among 166 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:58,079 them changed the outcome we defeated 167 00:09:55,760 --> 00:10:01,480 Cameron and the engines had to be 168 00:09:58,079 --> 00:10:04,680 switched off and the Andrews Air Base 169 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:07,680 and we narrowly by 13 votes avoided 170 00:10:04,680 --> 00:10:10,839 becoming embroiled in a disaster that's 171 00:10:07,680 --> 00:10:13,440 the kind of parliamentary sovereignty I 172 00:10:10,839 --> 00:10:18,440 believe in and that's the kind that we 173 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:20,399 can have if we leave this European 174 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:23,880 union now 175 00:10:20,399 --> 00:10:28,160 finally finally I don't want you to 176 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:31,040 think that I'm any kind of pacifist 177 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:34,160 against all wars if if I was alive and 178 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:36,880 of age I would have been among the first 179 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:39,000 in the queue to volunteer to fight in 180 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:41,279 the second world war indeed I would have 181 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:44,120 been one of those agitating that we 182 00:10:41,279 --> 00:10:48,680 should confront fascism earlier and with 183 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:51,360 all the Vigor that we could then must 184 00:10:48,680 --> 00:10:55,480 but the war when it came was as Mr 185 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:59,639 Churchill said our finest hour when we 186 00:10:55,480 --> 00:11:04,160 all went
