:00:15. > :00:22.Thank you very much for that warm welcome.

:00:23. > :00:28.We achieved what we set out to do, we have succeeded in getting

:00:29. > :00:34.ourselves out of this sclerotic, out-of-date European Union.

:00:35. > :00:37.And aren't we getting off this

:00:38. > :00:45.Only 48 hours ago, in the European Parliament,

:00:46. > :00:47.we heard the president of the European Commission,

:00:48. > :00:50.Jean-Claude Juncker, inform us that's full steam ahead for a

:00:51. > :00:57.When Nigel Farage warned of this back in 2014, Nick

:00:58. > :01:01.Clegg called him a dangerous fantasist.

:01:02. > :01:13.As I was travelling back from

:01:14. > :01:16.Strasbourg the other day, I came across Nick Clegg on television,

:01:17. > :01:24.Yes, he has crawled out from under that stone under which he has been

:01:25. > :01:29.And they replayed some of his Brexit warnings.

:01:30. > :01:34.He literally just stopped short of warning of nuclear

:01:35. > :01:37.Holocaust, a plague of locusts, and the murder of every

:01:38. > :01:46.It was clear, there and then, there was only one person

:01:47. > :01:52.living on Fantasy Island, and it isn't Nigel, and it isn't us.

:01:53. > :01:55.Because we know, as a country, we will go now from strength to

:01:56. > :02:00.strength, free from the shackles of our Brussels masters.

:02:01. > :02:22.I'm celebrating with my Brexit beard, which meant nobody

:02:23. > :02:34.At least it has lasted longer than Nigel's 1970s moustache.

:02:35. > :02:41.On a serious note, we have achieved so much in so little time.

:02:42. > :02:43.Undoubtedly, our greatest achievement has been this

:02:44. > :02:52.It would not have happened if it hadn't have been for Ukip.

:02:53. > :02:58.In 2013, we pushed the Prime Minister into

:02:59. > :03:03.offering a referendum that he never wanted to give.

:03:04. > :03:07.Because Ukip was steadily rising in the polls and scoring local

:03:08. > :03:18.Mr Cameron thought he could seek the Ukip votes by offering this

:03:19. > :03:27.The membership began to rise rapidly.

:03:28. > :03:30.We began to speak to huge audiences across the country.

:03:31. > :03:35.Nigel set off on his purple taxi the length and breadth of Britain.

:03:36. > :03:37.He literally spoke to thousands of people.

:03:38. > :03:39.I did 200 public meetings in two years.

:03:40. > :03:49.We exploded into local governments, and we now have 500 hard-working

:03:50. > :04:02.We forced the referendum, and you helped to win it.

:04:03. > :04:13.You were the foot soldiers, you manned the stalls,

:04:14. > :04:17.you delivered leaflets and got our country back.

:04:18. > :04:31.You have made us proud again.

:04:32. > :04:34.You will be thanked by the next generation for giving them the power

:04:35. > :04:39.Do not underestimate what you have achieved -

:04:40. > :04:42.Brexit will shape the direction this country will take in the first

:04:43. > :04:46.And what direction do we want it to take?

:04:47. > :04:50.We want to see a Britain that can stand proud in the world,

:04:51. > :04:55.A Britain that makes its own laws and has the ability

:04:56. > :05:11.This means there can be no backsliding on Brexit.

:05:12. > :05:14.Any attempt to maintain freedom of movement of people

:05:15. > :05:30.I want to see us have access to the single market,

:05:31. > :05:35.I want a Britain that is friends with our European neighbours,

:05:36. > :05:45.We want all of our laws to be made at Westminster by people we elect.

:05:46. > :06:00.I also want to see a Britain that looks to the emerging markets

:06:01. > :06:03.of the Far East and Asia, and reignites its links

:06:04. > :06:05.with the Commonwealth, which we so shamelessly

:06:06. > :06:17.This can now all be achieved, and it's thanks to you -

:06:18. > :06:34.I stood on this very platform eight years ago

:06:35. > :06:37.and said that I believed that Ukip's future lay as a party

:06:38. > :06:44.Very few people believed me at the time.

:06:45. > :06:46.But it is clear this is Ukip's great opportunity.

:06:47. > :07:00.Where, in many of these working-class opportunities,

:07:01. > :07:04.where the Labour Party has dominated for years,

:07:05. > :07:07.The Labour Party has lost touch with its working-class roots.

:07:08. > :07:09.It is a Labour Party that is increasingly

:07:10. > :07:11.dominated by the views of the Islington dinner party,

:07:12. > :07:14.and a Labour Party that actually sneers at our own flag.

:07:15. > :07:22.Ukip can make great strides in these areas as a party

:07:23. > :07:24.that wants to see firm but fair border control.

:07:25. > :07:31.That wants to see prison sentences mean what they say.

:07:32. > :07:34.That wants to see all children of all classes get a fair start

:07:35. > :07:38.in life, and one that is prepared to put British people at the top

:07:39. > :07:54.Now, let me talk about the future of the party

:07:55. > :07:59.and the new leader, whoever he or she may be.

:08:00. > :08:07.I will be frank at this point, because I can now, Ukip has not been

:08:08. > :08:22.And the animosity has spilt over into the media.

:08:23. > :08:26.No-one, no-one, has emerged from this with their heads held high.

:08:27. > :08:30.The designation process between Leave.EU and Vote Leave

:08:31. > :08:34.created a cancer in the heart of the party, and led

:08:35. > :08:44.to its leading lights using Ukip as a football.

:08:45. > :08:48.So much so that, at this present moment, the party resembles a jigsaw

:08:49. > :08:53.that has been emptied onto the floor.

:08:54. > :09:02.The new leader must put it back together.

:09:03. > :09:12.This can only be done through talking to people,

:09:13. > :09:14.not issuing empty threats or pursuing internal navel-gazing

:09:15. > :09:18.schemes that will most likely amount to nothing.

:09:19. > :09:25.Today is a breakwater in the history of this party.

:09:26. > :09:33.Both Nigel and I are standing down from the stage and standing down

:09:34. > :09:43.The new leader will not benefit in any way shape or form if any

:09:44. > :09:52.They must stand their own mark and they must take control of every

:09:53. > :10:01.The new leader must be a unifier, not a divider.

:10:02. > :10:07.Seek compromise, bring people together.

:10:08. > :10:10.As Winston Churchill once said, jaw jaw is always

:10:11. > :10:21.They must not lead what the Westminster journalists

:10:22. > :10:44.They must ensure that the party is a big tent, where all

:10:45. > :10:51.People are not marginalised or simply holding

:10:52. > :10:57.I have always believed that the barometer of the maturity

:10:58. > :11:00.of any political party is how it deals with people who have

:11:01. > :11:05.This, unfortunately, is something we have failed to do

:11:06. > :11:20.This must change because if it does not, and the new leader continues

:11:21. > :11:23.to preside over the infighting we have seen over the past year,

:11:24. > :11:31.This is a great opportunity to put all that behind us.

:11:32. > :11:34.To look forwards and not backwards, to let bygones be bygones.

:11:35. > :11:37.The new leader has a clean state and my advice is this,

:11:38. > :11:54.Do not get bogged down in internal squabbling and focus on fighting

:11:55. > :11:56.Ukip's enemies and not on fighting each other.

:11:57. > :12:08.Of course, as Lord Stevens said, there will have to be some form

:12:09. > :12:16.I was the first person in the party back in 2010, to talk

:12:17. > :12:21.about the need of a party board, a political board.

:12:22. > :12:24.I never envisaged for one second that this board would not have

:12:25. > :12:29.elected representation from the membership.

:12:30. > :12:32.Do not allow democracy within the party to be taken away.

:12:33. > :12:39.Do not allow the party to become like the European Commission

:12:40. > :12:56.My advice is simply this, yes, let's have a political board

:12:57. > :13:00.for the party, but let's also have a national executive

:13:01. > :13:17.Eight years ago when I stood on this platform, as your new party

:13:18. > :13:19.chairman, we were a party that was not registering

:13:20. > :13:25.Our membership was a near third of what it is now.

:13:26. > :13:28.We were deemed so irrelevant that not one single national

:13:29. > :13:50.journalist actually turned up to cover the conference,

:13:51. > :13:52.seeing as I was Michael Crick'ed outside so that probably

:13:53. > :13:58.I am as proud as punch by what we have all achieved.

:13:59. > :14:00.In 2014, we became the first party since 1906 that wasn't

:14:01. > :14:03.the Labour Party or the Conservatives to go on and win

:14:04. > :14:13.We took 4 million votes at the general election.

:14:14. > :14:16.We got the people the EU referendum and we have given this country

:14:17. > :14:18.the opportunity to put the great back into Great Britain.

:14:19. > :14:31.It is fitting that it ends for me on the very spot

:14:32. > :14:43.My colleagues, my friends, it has been a great honour

:14:44. > :14:46.and a pleasure to have been your party chairman

:14:47. > :14:50.and then your deputy leader for the past eight years.

:14:51. > :14:55.I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the support that

:14:56. > :15:00.you have given both me personally and the party in general.

:15:01. > :15:05.Never forget, you are its heart and lifeblood.

:15:06. > :15:09.Leaders and deputy leaders can come and go.

:15:10. > :15:17.You, the membership, without you, the party

:15:18. > :15:25.On that note, it is time to hand over to the next generation.

:15:26. > :15:31.I wish whoever succeeds me as the deputy leader of Ukip,

:15:32. > :16:25.Ladies and gentlemen, thank you.

:16:26. > :16:31.I have to say, when Paul first asked me to speak at this

:16:32. > :16:34.conference, I was quite uneasy, because having been involved

:16:35. > :16:36.in organising a lot of conferences, I realised I don't

:16:37. > :16:45.But he insisted he wanted me to be here to introduce our next

:16:46. > :16:51.I started getting overexcited, and thought, amazing,

:16:52. > :16:55.this is my last big opportunity to make a ground-breaking speech.

:16:56. > :17:09.I've always kept a bit of a low profile, as you know,

:17:10. > :17:13.I have so little public profile, at least one member at the NEC

:17:14. > :17:18.Last November, I looked at the betting odds

:17:19. > :17:27.I found that Gyles Brandreth has a greater chance than I do.

:17:28. > :17:34.I just want to say thank you and give a few words of advice,

:17:35. > :17:40.such as they're worth, on what I think Ukip needs to do

:17:41. > :17:45.next, and handover to the man you've come to hear.

:17:46. > :17:47.Before we continue, who was at the Derby

:17:48. > :17:52.What is it we need to keep reminding ourselves?

:17:53. > :18:02.When I was approached by Nigel to become party chairman

:18:03. > :18:12.in the unlikely event he would be re-elected as leader,

:18:13. > :18:15.chairman in the -- -- likely event he would be

:18:16. > :18:17.re-elected as leader, he said, in the worst job ad ever,

:18:18. > :18:22.He in fact give me the most precious opportunity of my life,

:18:23. > :18:24.the opportunity to contribute and a very minor way

:18:25. > :18:27.in the momentous events, dated in June 23 and changing

:18:28. > :18:41.I've been the chairman of Ukip and its National Executive

:18:42. > :18:44.Committee now twice as long as any previous incumbent.

:18:45. > :18:46.I've depended on many people in that time,

:18:47. > :18:55.and I would like say a special word of to Paul Oakden and others

:18:56. > :19:06.for their fantastic work in the last two years.

:19:07. > :19:10.And for enabling me to enjoy my summer while they were left holding

:19:11. > :19:15.I'd like to say a quick word about the NEC, if I may.

:19:16. > :19:19.It has come in for a lot of stick in the last few months.

:19:20. > :19:39.Before you sweep away what you have, you need to know

:19:40. > :19:43.what you are getting rid of and what you are

:19:44. > :19:46.The constitution we put out in 2011 deliberately

:19:47. > :19:50.Like the great powers before the first war,

:19:51. > :19:55.constant diplomacy is needed before falling into a conflict.

:19:56. > :19:58.We need to avoid a Balkan tinderbox setting the whole thing off.

:19:59. > :20:02.The NEC is not perfect, but during the years

:20:03. > :20:09.of my chairmanship, they were a delight to work with,

:20:10. > :20:11.courageous, collegiate, courteous and dedicated

:20:12. > :20:21.Unfortunately, it has been more about the pressure of personal

:20:22. > :20:28.The majority of NEC members have been exasperated by this.

:20:29. > :20:35.Reform is overdue, and the regional model being talked about may now

:20:36. > :20:41.The most important thing of all is that Ukip,

:20:42. > :20:45.under its new leader, get its house in order quickly,

:20:46. > :20:48.reforms the columns of the People's Army,

:20:49. > :20:50.and is back in battle order without delay.

:20:51. > :21:06.Because the country needs Ukip - stronger, unified,

:21:07. > :21:25.Because British democracy is on trial for its life.

:21:26. > :21:27.So what happened on the 23rd of June?

:21:28. > :21:32.We didn't win a PR battle, we didn't fight six other

:21:33. > :21:37.people for a council seat, we won the largest popular vote

:21:38. > :21:59.The 17.4 million votes were way more than Margaret Thatcher

:22:00. > :22:01.got in 1974 or John Major's record in 1992.

:22:02. > :22:05.It was more than the Yes campaign got in 1975 which kept us

:22:06. > :22:19.It was the biggest exercise in popular democracy this

:22:20. > :22:22.As Tony Benn said, after being on the losing side

:22:23. > :22:24.in the 1975 referendum, when the British people speak,

:22:25. > :22:26.everyone, including Members of Parliament, should tremble

:22:27. > :22:45.The margin was 1.27 million, Leave gained 52% of the vote.

:22:46. > :22:56.No-one has had that higher margin since Stanley Baldwin in 1971.

:22:57. > :23:01.If you look at it on a constituency basis there was a majority of 229.

:23:02. > :23:11.That is 50 more then Tony Blair had

:23:12. > :23:19.In England and Wales, over 70% of seats voted Leave.

:23:20. > :23:28.Then we hear that some people have decided it isn't.

:23:29. > :23:31.The man trying currently to make Jeremy Corbyn look like a competent

:23:32. > :23:38.leader of the Labour Party, Owen Smith, says if he becomes

:23:39. > :23:41.the Prime Minister, he won't allow Brexit.

:23:42. > :23:46.Or maybe he'll apply to rejoin the EU and the euro.

:23:47. > :24:03.Fortunately, the chances of Mr Smith becoming premise are vanishingly

:24:04. > :24:06.are small, despite his glittering career as a BBC producer,

:24:07. > :24:08.adviser to Ed Miliband and board member of pharmaceutical companies.

:24:09. > :24:11.Then we hear someone called Tim Farron, who apparently leads

:24:12. > :24:14.the Liberal Democrats, demands, for the sake of democracy,

:24:15. > :24:16.we need to have a second referendum on the terms

:24:17. > :24:30.What would be little question in that referendum?

:24:31. > :24:32.Do you agree with the terms of Brexit,

:24:33. > :24:35.place a cross in the box if you agree with the terms

:24:36. > :24:38.of Brexit, yes, no, some of them, please write in your own ideas

:24:39. > :24:58.But it's not just politicians on the make banging this drum.

:24:59. > :25:01.To be fair I would like to pay tribute to most

:25:02. > :25:09.side, who recognise, like Tony Benn, everyone should tremble before

:25:10. > :25:14.The gilded elite of this country has signalled it is not prepared to let

:25:15. > :25:17.the uneducated plebs take away its pet project for

:25:18. > :25:34.The standard bearer for this legion of the intellectual elite.

:25:35. > :25:37.Is the baroness used to edit the Wall Street Journal

:25:38. > :25:43.British democracy and announced that what is needed is a rebellion to

:25:44. > :25:48.kick out the Brexit bill when it comes to the House of Lords.

:25:49. > :25:51.I am generally a mild-mannered, polite,

:25:52. > :25:57.I believe in the monarchy, the House of Lords,

:25:58. > :26:02.our tradition of individual and civil rights, law and order,

:26:03. > :26:07.parliamentary democracy and respect for our institutions.

:26:08. > :26:16.Baroness, I have to tell you, not only is it a

:26:17. > :26:18.suicide note for the House of Lords, your plan,

:26:19. > :26:19.it is a blueprint for the

:26:20. > :26:22.destruction of democracy in this country.

:26:23. > :26:25.The plebs voted for something you do not like and you

:26:26. > :26:26.propose to tell them they cannot have it.

:26:27. > :26:29.The fact is, senior Conservative peers could possibly

:26:30. > :26:34.advance this view shows that Ukip's oft heard cry that the elite

:26:35. > :26:37.stealing democracy from the people is bang on the money.

:26:38. > :26:50.That is why Ukip's continuing strength is so vital.

:26:51. > :27:05.The interesting thing about the Baroness's title,

:27:06. > :27:14.is that's where all the revolting peasants gather

:27:15. > :27:20.The Kentish men in 1450, the Cornish rebels in 1497

:27:21. > :27:24.all gathered on Blackheath to make London tremble.

:27:25. > :27:30.Although I am happily withdrawing from day-to-day politics, if

:27:31. > :27:32.baroness, after the good folk of this country

:27:33. > :27:35.have given their view, if you and your chums attempt to

:27:36. > :27:40.overturn the will of the people as expressed

:27:41. > :27:42.in the largest exercise in direct democracy ever

:27:43. > :27:46.I would be happy to join the peasants from every county in

:27:47. > :27:49.the country, especially the Welsh, and be on her doorstep with flaming

:27:50. > :28:44.torches before she can call an uber to escape it.

:28:45. > :28:54.Thank you for coming. If you came by train, I hope you got a seat. If so,

:28:55. > :29:00.it makes you more qualified for public office than Jeremy Corbyn.

:29:01. > :29:04.Let's go on to what is important. We won the referendum. We want it here

:29:05. > :29:14.in Bournemouth. We won it in the south west. -- won it. We won it in

:29:15. > :29:25.the UK as a whole. Over 500 parliamentary seats voted to Leave.

:29:26. > :29:29.APPLAUSE Without the UK Independence party,

:29:30. > :29:33.the referendum would not have happened at all. Congratulations to

:29:34. > :29:49.everybody and you all deserve a strong round of applause. But, I'm

:29:50. > :29:55.afraid there is a but, we won the battle but have yet to win the war.

:29:56. > :29:59.We could still find ourselves in a Brexit that is not really a Brexit.

:30:00. > :30:06.That is against our national interests. Kenneth Clarke, Nick

:30:07. > :30:12.Clegg, the luvvies and the rest of them, still want the UK to be a

:30:13. > :30:27.province in a protectionist European superstate. We must guard our

:30:28. > :30:32.victory. I did not hear that's. We must guard our victory so that at

:30:33. > :30:39.the risk of getting technical and nerdy, I am going to talk most about

:30:40. > :30:44.trade agreements that is my brief. Here is the first one. New Zealand's

:30:45. > :30:49.trade agreements. Trade agreements, although they are not necessary,

:30:50. > :30:54.they are desirable. Whilst we Remain in the EU, the United Kingdom, one

:30:55. > :30:58.of the biggest trading nations in the world does not have the right

:30:59. > :31:05.and cannot sign trade agreements on its own be. To name three countries,

:31:06. > :31:08.Chile, New Zealand and Iceland. We all have the right to negotiate

:31:09. > :31:14.their trade agreements because they are not part of a trading bloc and

:31:15. > :31:20.not part of the European union. They are independent, we, for the moment,

:31:21. > :31:24.are not. There is a list of New Zealand's trade agreements. It

:31:25. > :31:29.disproves and contradicts the proposition one hears all the time

:31:30. > :31:33.that a country has to be part of the big trading block in order to

:31:34. > :31:40.negotiate trade agreements. Jilly, new Zealand, even Iceland have

:31:41. > :31:45.agreements with China. -- Chile. The EU does not and will not any time

:31:46. > :31:50.soon. There is a compelling reason for this. It is easier and more

:31:51. > :31:53.straightforward to negotiate trade agreements for one single country

:31:54. > :31:59.and one single economy than attempting to do the same for a

:32:00. > :32:03.block of 28 countries with different economies. The EU trade Commissioner

:32:04. > :32:08.has to take into account and encompass the interest of all member

:32:09. > :32:15.states. That is difficult. In a metaphor I wish I had come up with

:32:16. > :32:19.but Boris Johnson did, the EU and trade negotiations is rather like a

:32:20. > :32:26.gigantic 28 strong pantomime horse. It is ungainly, it does not go

:32:27. > :32:31.forward and that is why it takes the EU seven or eight years to negotiate

:32:32. > :32:37.a trade agreement, or very often not at all. On Brexit, we in the UK

:32:38. > :32:40.would then negotiate our own trade agreements and much more easily than

:32:41. > :32:48.a dysfunctional contraption that is the European Union.

:32:49. > :32:53.APPLAUSE Now we're going to talk about access

:32:54. > :32:58.to the EU markets. We do complete rubbish spoken all the time,

:32:59. > :33:02.particularly on Newsnight. Despite what you hear, access to EU markets

:33:03. > :33:10.does not depend on having a trade agreement or being an EU member

:33:11. > :33:14.state. This slide shows the value of a trade between 20 countries outside

:33:15. > :33:23.the UPN union and the EU member states. -- European Union. The key

:33:24. > :33:28.figure is the one at the bottom. 2000 700 million euros. Numbers do

:33:29. > :33:33.not mean very much unless they are compared to something. What is the

:33:34. > :33:39.comparison? The answer is, the value of this trade, imports plus exports

:33:40. > :33:44.by these 20 countries outside the European union. It is just 20

:33:45. > :33:48.countries that is worth more than the entire economy of France, more

:33:49. > :33:54.than the entire economy here in the UK. It was even more than what David

:33:55. > :34:01.Cameron and Samantha Cameron expected early next year.

:34:02. > :34:06.LAUGHTER The fact is, a country does not have

:34:07. > :34:11.to be in the European union in order to be able to trade with it and

:34:12. > :34:17.trade very successfully. Next fact, let's look at China's exports to the

:34:18. > :34:24.EU. This has been sent to the BBC but unsurprisingly, it has yet to be

:34:25. > :34:27.seen. China includes a loan exports roughly one and a half times what

:34:28. > :34:33.the United Kingdom exports to the EU. What we see here and what the

:34:34. > :34:38.facts demonstrate is that China, not an EU member and without a trade

:34:39. > :34:42.agreement with the EU, nevertheless has access sufficient to export more

:34:43. > :34:53.goods to the EU than we do in the UK to the tune of one and a half times.

:34:54. > :34:58.People say, as Philip Hammond wrote, you are not mentioning services.

:34:59. > :35:04.Here is a slide showing the United States's exports of services to the

:35:05. > :35:09.EU compared with the UK's exports of services to the EU. As you can see,

:35:10. > :35:15.it is the same thing. The export more than we do. Here is another

:35:16. > :35:21.slide. This is the list of the top ten exporters to the EU. The key

:35:22. > :35:26.point here is that the top three, China, Russia and United States, six

:35:27. > :35:31.of the top ten and 11 of the top 20 trading countries do not, repeat

:35:32. > :35:36.not, have trade agreements with the European union. The facts are clear,

:35:37. > :35:42.people and businesses do not need to be in a country that has a trade

:35:43. > :35:46.agreement with the EU in order to trade successfully and profitably

:35:47. > :35:50.and have access to the EU markets. These countries, all trade with the

:35:51. > :35:55.EU within the framework and under the rules of the trade organisation

:35:56. > :36:04.and that is one option for the UK, that is always available.

:36:05. > :36:17.APPLAUSE One further academic and nerdy fact.

:36:18. > :36:24.Because we are in the EU, our seat can be reactivated once we Leave the

:36:25. > :36:29.EU. We can speak up for EU trade and the national interests. Until we

:36:30. > :36:36.Leave, our boys they are in submerged in one of 28. -- our

:36:37. > :36:43.voice. This is the second last slide. This is the Steve Crown

:36:44. > :36:49.point. Steve was the brilliant chair of Ukip. To give food recognition,

:36:50. > :37:02.Steve made this point to me. You cannot see the detail easily. Jilly,

:37:03. > :37:09.Republic of Madagascar, the Seychelles, so on. The EU in Short

:37:10. > :37:14.has 100 trade agreements and we make 141. That is a conclusion to this.

:37:15. > :37:20.It would be very odd not to say absurd, not to say bizarre, and,

:37:21. > :37:23.this is the key point, not as a wholly against the commercial

:37:24. > :37:27.interests of the EU, given all the countries that do have trade

:37:28. > :37:29.agreements with the EU, for the EU not to have one with the UK on

:37:30. > :37:39.Brexit. APPLAUSE

:37:40. > :37:44.Thank you, Steve, for pointing that out to me. Let's look at free

:37:45. > :37:54.movement of people. This is the last slide. Free movement, or what they

:37:55. > :37:58.call free movement, is simply what gives over 450 million citizens of

:37:59. > :38:04.EU member states the app salute right to live, work and settle in

:38:05. > :38:12.the United Kingdom. We have no control. -- absolute. The EU has all

:38:13. > :38:16.these trade agreements and these trade agreements, with one

:38:17. > :38:21.exception, do not, repeat not, have discrete movement clause. For

:38:22. > :38:27.example, no free movement of clause with Mexico, South Korea or Canada.

:38:28. > :38:31.The EU has trade agreements with ten European countries with no free

:38:32. > :38:38.movement clause. Turkey, even managed free movement. It is only

:38:39. > :38:44.the four countries, Switzerland, Lichtenstein, Iceland and Norway

:38:45. > :38:49.that has trade agreements requires free movement of people.

:38:50. > :38:52.Lichtenstein is a delegation and Switzerland voted against free

:38:53. > :39:01.movement in a referendum in their breed doesn't and 14, we never hear

:39:02. > :39:06.about. That leaves two countries -- to does than 14. Two countries in

:39:07. > :39:10.the world, Norway and Iceland, in the middle there, who still have

:39:11. > :39:14.free movement of people in return for access in a trade agreement with

:39:15. > :39:23.beer. There is no EU requirement on other countries for free movement

:39:24. > :39:34.and trade agreements. None. Not at all. Not at all.

:39:35. > :39:41.APPLAUSE This is a simple basic obvious and

:39:42. > :39:47.incontrovertible facts. What we hear on the BBC is always the reverse.

:39:48. > :39:55.Let's explore this. I wonder if anybody here has ever watched yes

:39:56. > :39:58.Prime Minister ought yes Minister. These shows demonstrate better than

:39:59. > :40:05.anything the power of the civil service. As a resident of the south

:40:06. > :40:13.west, I can recommend Devon clotted cream fudge. But, we do not want and

:40:14. > :40:18.cannot accept a Brexit fudge cooked up by Sir Humphrey.

:40:19. > :40:29.LAUGHTER APPLAUSE

:40:30. > :40:33.Incidentally, we did win and there has been an honours list that David

:40:34. > :40:37.Cameron... If you modifications. Will Straw,

:40:38. > :40:44.who ran the Remain campaign was made a CBE. That is not enough. He should

:40:45. > :40:57.have been made and Errol at the very least. For services to Brexit and

:40:58. > :41:01.the league campaign. -- Earl. George Osborne was made a companion of

:41:02. > :41:09.honour. It should have been a companion of dishonour.

:41:10. > :41:16.APPLAUSE For Paddy Ashdown, Mark Carney and

:41:17. > :41:25.Tony Blair, they should all be made Jukes. -- Jukes. Given the

:41:26. > :41:39.provocations of doom, they should all be the same title, the Dukes of

:41:40. > :41:45.Hazzard. To go back to yes Minister and yes, Prime Minister. These were

:41:46. > :41:54.co-written by Anthony Joshua who worked with the BBC. He worked in a

:41:55. > :42:00.row about his time, we were not just anti-Harold Macmillan, we were and

:42:01. > :42:05.industry, anti-capitalism, and he's selling, anti-profit, anti-monarchy,

:42:06. > :42:10.anti-police, and Armed Forces, anti-bomb, anti-authority. Almost

:42:11. > :42:17.anything that made the world a freer, safer, and more prosperous

:42:18. > :42:24.place, you name it, we in the BBC were anti-it.

:42:25. > :42:30.APPLAUSE That was the 1960s. The BBC were

:42:31. > :42:48.biased then and the BBC as biased now. Into thousand and 16, we can

:42:49. > :42:55.add the BBC are also anti-Brexit and Andy Nigel Farage. -- anti-Nigel
