Don't you think Faraj yesterday made the speech of speeches
0:04
I haven't seen a politician before like that, the stagecraft of the man
0:09
I haven't seen anybody before like that for 30 years. He has literally gripped the attention of the nation
0:14
on the biggest problem that everybody in this country is worrying about. That is fantastic political skill
0:20
He's a great speaker, but I mean, Neil Kinnock was one of the finest speakers I've ever known him on
0:25
He could actually capture a report. But he was a windbag. He was a windbag
0:28
Farage is not a win-back. That's a cheap, cheap... Wouldn't it be lovely if we had Farage as Prime Minister here
0:36
at the same time as we've got Trump, the President of the United States, you'd then have a Thatcher-Reagan bond like we had in those days
0:43
wouldn't you? You would then have a resilient, powerful Western world fighting back
0:48
But I tell you what, for the first time in a long time, for the first time in a long time, including 14 years of Tories
0:53
I feel very optimistic about the future of this country because Farage has stirred the conscience of the nation
0:59
and got us all to open our eyes and see what the threat is to our societies, to our nation
1:05
and we're fighting back. Where is it going to go? I mean, the thing about four years' time, Trump won't be in the White House, thanks, Peter, God
1:11
So you're not going to have that Thatcher rage and love in. That's what I said. What a shame. OK, but the reality is, at the moment
1:18
Farage is actually talking up the situation. I still don't honestly... I mean, I'll give you credit for his speech
1:22
You know, it actually found... It held the room. No question about that. However, a lot of it was actually bombast and empty promises
1:29
Why do you say that? Why do you say there are empty promises? Five flights a day Look do you honestly think this country can cope with the idea of children being deported But you the guy who said Rwanda was bombast Rwanda would have worked And now you talking down another situation He going to take us out of that ridiculous Human Rights Act 1951
1:48
..so that stops the judges, the refugee... Absolutely. ..and also the ECHR at long last
1:53
I should lawyers and human rights lawyers determine who can and can't..
1:56
There's no issue with ECHR. The problem is British lawyers... What do you mean the ECHR stop the flight to Rwanda
2:01
I'm sorry. It's the interpretation by British lawyers, and particularly immigration judges and immigration tribunal judges
2:07
who, quite frankly, are a disgrace in many cases. And I've taken so many cases to them, and I've seen ludicrously
2:13
Somebody's talking from Vertigo, or they've got hiccups, or they don't like chicken nuggets
2:18
It's insane. That's nothing to do with ECHR. It's to do with our own interpretation of English, British..
2:23
But he says he will scrap our human rights bill, introduced by Tony Bear
2:27
and replace it with something which is common sense to us. By the way, Kemi Badenoch is finished, isn't she
2:33
after that speech yesterday? Because all she can say afterwards is, oh, they're stealing our ideas
2:38
But why didn't you tell us? Me too. The Tories have not said they'll come out of the ETHR
2:42
They have not said they'll scrap the Human Rights Act. She takes on James Cleverley
2:47
who pointedly not said we're coming out of the ETHR and who called the Rwanda situation..
2:52
Don't use the word. ..useless. Yeah. I get into trouble for using profanity on this programme
2:58
Don't do that. Don't do that. No. No, he's not allowed. No, he's not allowed. I think it was also terribly clever yesterday of Nigel Farage
3:05
to encourage anybody, no matter what constituency they live in, to start lobbying their own MPs to support his ideas
3:13
That will undoubtedly happen
