:02:27. > :02:41.editor Laura Kuenssberg. This product is exported all over
:02:42. > :02:45.Europe. Their work, the country's wealth, maybe his job too, are they
:02:46. > :02:48.all on the line if we vote to leave the European Union?
:02:49. > :02:52.all on the line if we vote to leave brought three Cabinet colleagues
:02:53. > :02:58.along to make a big claim this morning. We would be worse off
:02:59. > :02:59.along to make a big claim this ever if we choose to leave. Britain
:03:00. > :03:04.would be permanently ever if we choose to leave. Britain
:03:05. > :03:08.left the European Union. Under any alternative we would trade less, do
:03:09. > :03:12.less business, there would be less investment. And the price would be
:03:13. > :03:15.paid by British families, wages would be lower, prices would be
:03:16. > :03:22.higher, and that means that Britain would be poorer by ?4300 per
:03:23. > :03:28.household. That is ?4300 worse off every year, a bill paid year after
:03:29. > :03:32.year by the working people of Britain. What he means, if we leave
:03:33. > :03:37.the economy could be 6% smaller than if we stay. That's the same amount
:03:38. > :03:41.of cash as if each household was more than ?4000 poorer. And the loss
:03:42. > :03:47.of trade could mean big spending cuts or tax rises too. But how can
:03:48. > :03:50.he be so sure? In the past Treasury forecasts have
:03:51. > :03:53.proven about as reliable as licking your finger and sticking it in the
:03:54. > :03:57.air to tell you what is going on with the weather. Can you admit at
:03:58. > :04:01.their very best this is an educated guess?
:04:02. > :04:05.Our analysis has been supported by a host of very credible independent
:04:06. > :04:10.organisations. Let's hear from the other side what their plan is, where
:04:11. > :04:14.is their analysis? Where is their assessment of the costs and benefits
:04:15. > :04:19.of leaving the European Union? I don't hear anything from them. Thank
:04:20. > :04:23.you. The political aim is clear, crush the other side's case with
:04:24. > :04:27.heavy economic evidence, whether it is project fear or a reality check.
:04:28. > :04:30.There are many moving parts in these arguments and there will always be
:04:31. > :04:36.quibbling over the numbers, but this is one of the biggest moves from the
:04:37. > :04:39.In Campaign. An Official Warning From The Government Department That

:05:18. > :05:22.he will vote to stay. Richard Hawkins is sure he wants to leave,
:05:23. > :05:26.Wendy is not so sure. I think we've lost some of our sort of identity
:05:27. > :05:29.and I'd like to get that back. The Chancellor is making a big statement
:05:30. > :05:36.today about the economic risk but do you believe him? No. But tonight
:05:37. > :05:41.something you thought you might never see or hear, a Conservative
:05:42. > :05:46.Cabinet minister making nice with Nigel Farage. Both dismissing the
:05:47. > :05:49.government's one in zombie economy and both committed to make the
:05:50. > :05:54.referendum a real fight. Saying to them you can't sell your
:05:55. > :05:57.cheese in Britain anymore, it's not going to happen. The German
:05:58. > :06:01.car-makers in Bavaria selling their cars, selling their BW is in
:06:02. > :06:05.Britain, does anybody seriously think the German government is going
:06:06. > :06:09.to say to them, you cannot sell your cars in Britain anymore, it is a
:06:10. > :06:13.nonsense, we are a huge market for German cars, French dairy products
:06:14. > :06:17.and even French champagne and I hope we will drink a lot more of that
:06:18. > :06:22.after the 23rd of June as we celebrate. Unusual times turn rivals
:06:23. > :06:26.into friends. The oddments turning ?2 and pence. With both camps trying
:06:27. > :06:30.to convince you that they have right on their side.
:06:31. > :06:34.So do the claims laid out in the Treasury document stand up?
:06:35. > :06:36.Our economics editor Kamal Ahmed has been examining the
:06:37. > :06:44.ARCHIVE FOOTAGE: It's a flying car. It has a 50 horsepower motor.
:06:45. > :06:47.Predicting the future is not always easy.
:06:48. > :06:51.Floating cars didn't quite make it, but today the Treasury made a more
:06:52. > :06:53.serious analysis about what it saw as the economic costs of leaving
:06:54. > :07:01.Billions of pounds in extra taxes and in a small economy.
:07:02. > :07:05.The Treasury said its analysis was cautious.
:07:06. > :07:07.Estimating what is going to happen in the future is very difficult
:07:08. > :07:10.but the way think of this and all of these estimates is that
:07:11. > :07:13.whatever happens in the future, whether things are better or worse,
:07:14. > :07:17.if we leave the EU we will be poorer than we otherwise would have been.
:07:18. > :07:21.The big claim, that leaving the EU will cost every family ?4300.
:07:22. > :07:29.Dividing the national economic impact of billions of pounds worth
:07:30. > :07:32.of losses the Treasury claims by the UK's 26.7 billion households.
:07:33. > :07:35.It does not mean any families actually paying out a cheque
:07:36. > :07:41.The Treasury document looks at three scenarios if the UK leaves the EU.
:07:42. > :07:46.The first, Britain makes a Norway-style deal,
:07:47. > :07:48.gaining access to the single market and paying a contribution
:07:49. > :07:52.The Treasury says this would be the least bad option,
:07:53. > :08:02.The second scenario, the Canada option, is a free-trade deal
:08:03. > :08:11.That could lead to an economy 6.2% smaller according to the Treasury.
:08:12. > :08:14.The final option is a deal under the World Trade Organisation's
:08:15. > :08:15.free-trade rules, similar to Brazil or Russia.
:08:16. > :08:17.That could lead to an economy 7.5% smaller.
:08:18. > :08:22.The question is, why would the economy suffer?
:08:23. > :08:27.The report says leaving would increase trade barriers making
:08:28. > :08:30.the UK's products harder to sell in the EU, our largest market.
:08:31. > :08:33.It also claims it would lead to low investment as businesses relocate
:08:34. > :08:37.to the rest of the EU to take advantage of the single market.
:08:38. > :08:40.And a small economy means lower tax income for the Government.
:08:41. > :08:53.Reports suggest ?36 billion a year less tax.
:08:54. > :08:56.And to fill that financial hole the Government says it could mean
:08:57. > :08:59.This long-term forecast is just that, a forecast.
:09:00. > :09:02.And by 2030 a lot of things might change for the better,
:09:03. > :09:12.A lower value of the pound could boost exports and the EU
:09:13. > :09:15.could want a good trade deal with the UK, the world's
:09:16. > :09:20.And, in any case, the EU already has its own trade barriers.
:09:21. > :09:24.The main problem for us being in the EU is it stops us being
:09:25. > :09:30.We have to have the EU's tariff wall, tax wall,
:09:31. > :09:33.against producers in the rest of the world, which raises the cost
:09:34. > :09:49.The report is full of equations about how the economy
:09:50. > :09:51.would be affected if the UK left the EU.
:09:52. > :09:55.They only need one of those equations to be wrong for a very
:09:56. > :10:00.The interests of farmers are best served by remaining in the EU -
:10:01. > :10:02.that's the conclusion from the National Farmers Union
:10:03. > :10:05.Farmers have, historically, received huge benefits from Brussels -
:10:06. > :10:07.but not all are keen on staying in the EU.
:10:08. > :10:09.Our environment correspondent Claire Marshall reports.
:10:10. > :10:14.The animals reared, the crops planted and the subsidy cheques paid
:10:15. > :10:16.to farmers are all influenced by rules that have their
:10:17. > :10:26.But should this European landscape stay the same?
:10:27. > :10:28.Hours of heated debate today among Council members
:10:29. > :10:39.An overwhelming majority are in favour of staying in the EU.
:10:40. > :10:43.We can have market access, labour availability
:10:44. > :10:48.and we want to operate on a level playing field
:10:49. > :10:51.Because that evidence highlights that at the moment it's better
:10:52. > :10:55.Here in Northern Ireland, reliance on EU farm subsidies
:10:56. > :10:57.is four times higher than in England.
:10:58. > :11:02.William Taylor is a livestock farmer in Coleraine.
:11:03. > :11:06.He believes that the EU is the only way that farmers will ever be able
:11:07. > :11:08.to get a better price from supermarkets for their produce.
:11:09. > :11:12.At the minute, we have found a way forward in which farmers can get
:11:13. > :11:15.properly rewarded for their work, and that involves legislation
:11:16. > :11:24.So in effect, for us to stay in Europe is the difference

:11:39. > :11:40.And today NFU Wales confirmed its pro European stance.
:11:41. > :11:43.So let's have a look at some of the figures about this.
:11:44. > :11:48.Some 40% of the EU's budget goes on supporting farmers.
:11:49. > :11:53.In many cases, this can make up half of a farm's income.
:11:54. > :11:58.If we look at exports from the food and agricultural processing
:11:59. > :12:03.Farming and agriculture are a core part of the European project.
:12:04. > :12:05.Farmers who back leaving the EU say they're being overwhelmed

:12:23. > :12:26.I want people managing my farms to be in London, not in Brussels.
:12:27. > :12:29.The NFU Council has given its opinion.

:12:39. > :12:41.Our political editor, Laura Kuenssberg, is at Westminster.
:12:42. > :12:43.Will those campaigning to stay in the EU feel
:12:44. > :12:55.I think they are feeling pretty punchy tonight, one Government
:12:56. > :13:00.source told me they believe they have their outers on the ropes.
:13:01. > :13:03.Government official machine has unleashed is full forces today
:13:04. > :13:07.making serious warnings about what might happen to the economy if we
:13:08. > :13:11.vote to leave will stop that is not as because they believe, they've got
:13:12. > :13:15.the economic arguments on their side, it's also because that's the
:13:16. > :13:19.absolute core of the argument that they are trying to make in this
:13:20. > :13:22.campaign. That's their strategy, to plant a seed of doubt in the minds
:13:23. > :13:28.of undecided voters and make them focus on the risks of the risks to
:13:29. > :13:32.their wallet, if we vote as a country to leave. Now, within the
:13:33. > :13:35.campaign there are some Conservative ministers and the First Minister of
:13:36. > :13:42.Scotland Nicola Sturgeon expressing privately and publicly on her side a
:13:43. > :13:45.bit of unease about all this negativity, suggestions this isn't
:13:46. > :13:51.the kind of positive argument they would like to see but perhaps what
:13:52. > :13:55.matters right now is not necessarily whether it's too negative, but
:13:56. > :13:58.whether it will be effective. And remember, in the Scottish referendum
:13:59. > :14:04.those who were making the arguments about economic warnings would decide
:14:05. > :14:07.who ultimately won. Of course, it is early in this campaign, those who
:14:08. > :14:11.want us to leave will argue passionately and repeatedly that we
:14:12. > :14:16.could be more prosperous if we leave. But right now, as each day it
:14:17. > :14:20.seems the Government adds more and more establishment voices to their
:14:21. > :14:24.side, the Outers are starting to look like rebels with a cause,

:28:29. > :28:31.devoted to service. She was ten when she discovered that
:28:32. > :28:35.one day she would be Queen. Through the Second World War
:28:36. > :28:38.and the years that followed, she watched and learned from her

:28:57. > :29:03.between the qualities required of a monarch
:29:04. > :29:10.and those of a priest. I think when she was, as it were,
:29:11. > :29:13.called to this office when her father died, I think
:29:14. > :29:16.from that sprang her awareness that she had to
:29:17. > :29:20.serve her people, which she said in her opening words,
:29:21. > :29:22."I'm here to serve you," and she's done so, some people
:29:23. > :29:26.say it in a priestly fashion, I would certainly say it springs
:29:27. > :29:29.from her Christian values, her sense of
:29:30. > :29:35.calling for the office. She was there as a
:29:36. > :29:37.golden thread running Now, on the threshold
