7:05 pm
showed to you. well, the result of all of this that 3000 of all of this is that 3000 people have crossed the channel over the course of the last ten days. and from wednesday of this week onwards , it's going to be week onwards, it's going to be flat calm for perhaps up to a week. so we can expect another two, three, 4000 to come over that period of time . but there that period of time. but there is an even bigger issue and bigger problem . and this weekend bigger problem. and this weekend we're focussed on a tragedy and thatis we're focussed on a tragedy and that is a migrant boat coming across the mediterranean has sunk. it is suspected that up to 500 odd people , all are dead or 500 odd people, all are dead or missing. 100 of them children or infants. and it's really dodi, i think, you know, taking some big headunes think, you know, taking some big headlines over the course of this weekend to make people think, well, this is awful. it's terrible . and the blame game is terrible. and the blame game is going on. you know, did the greek coastguard do enough? why were other commercial vessels that were in that part of the
7:06 pm
mediterranean, why were they not alerted to the fact that for many, many hours as this boat, this fishing boat, was basically motionless and you see a picture of it there on your screens , of it there on your screens, crammed with hundreds and hundreds of people. so there is a very big blame game going on. but i think they're all wrong . but i think they're all wrong. and bear in mind that those that cross the english channel nearly always are those that previously have crossed the mediterranean . have crossed the mediterranean. but i think to blame the greeks is crazy and it's wrong . and is crazy and it's wrong. and i'll tell you where the blame lies in 2015, when the first boats started crossing the mediterranean, john claude juncker, who was in charge of the european commission, put in place the eu's refugee and asylum plans. they basically said that anyone that sets foot on eu soil could stay. and i said at the time, and i said it again and again in speeches in the european parliament, if you allow this policy to go forward
7:07 pm
from here, there will be millions of people that come and i said many, many people will die as a result. well now, since all of that started in the first boats started to arrive in 2014, it is estimated and wait for this, it is estimated said that 27, 1000 thousand people have drowned in the mediterranean. thatis drowned in the mediterranean. that is a truly horrendous figure and it puts the 500 that have been lost over the course of this week end into, i think, some some sort of context . the some some sort of context. the main reason people are moving across the med is because they're coming from poorer countries to rich countries . but countries to rich countries. but if the qualification for refugee status for claiming asylum is because you come from somewhere that's poor, then by my reckoning, somewhere between four and 5 billion people in the world would qualify. now that doesn't mean they're all going to come, but it does mean that
7:08 pm
unless we rethink all of this, we could be facing a problem that literally be totally engulfs the european continent. and in turn us as well. engulfs the european continent. and in turn us as well . so is and in turn us as well. so is mass migration an inevitability? give me your thoughts, farage at gb news .com because this is a major, major inaya national issue. my feeling is that that the richer european countries simply can't take unlimited numbers of people and we have to get to a point and we've seen some of this where the greeks have been doing push back. and in italy some people have been arrested, put in handcuffs and sent to north africa. sent back to north africa. europe is going to have to do and we, too, are going to have to do what the australians did and say actually to qualify and to say actually to qualify as a refugee , you genuinely have as a refugee, you genuinely have to be in fear of your life and your liberty as a result of who your liberty as a result of who you are or what you believe in. poverty i don't think is enough

7:26 pm
change is really, really serious. you've got to you've just had a piece on immigration in one of the drivers of immigration and asylum seeking is, of course, climate change. you've got huge investment around the world in the green transition , $370 billion transition, $370 billion trillion, $1 billion, 1.7 trillion , conceivably up to 1.7 trillion, conceivably up to 1.7 trillion, conceivably up to 1.7 trillion by the us . massive trillion by the us. massive investment in the eu. if the uk is left behind, we not only lose out on our contribution contribution to climate change where we've been world leaders, we lose out on all the job opportunities. and i think you can work with communities to get them onshore wind farms. the big difference, the big difference, nigel i was running nigel from when i was running six years ago is there was a lot of stuff there saying that they were expensive and they were very expensive and they didn't and nobody didn't work. and almost nobody now that evidence now thinks that the evidence is clear cheapest form of clear that the cheapest form of energy and they make a big contribution. no, no, no, inoy-no— contribution. no, no, no, they're subsidised- contribution. no, no, no,- they're subsidised .taxpayers. they're subsidised by taxpayers. but they're subsidised by taxpayers. nun moving— they're subsidised by taxpayers. nun moving on— they're subsidised by taxpayers. but moving on. moving from but moving on. moving on from wind. — but moving on. moving on from wind. no— but moving on. moving on from wind. no non— but moving on. moving on from wind. no new oil— but moving on. moving on from wind. no new oil and gas explorabbn_ wind. no new oil and gas exploration and gas is subsidised— exploration and gas is subsidised massively . now that subsidised massively. now that o nugo— subsidised massively. now that o nugo .— subsidised massively. now that means a huge , huge loss of jobs
