british columnist explains why it's time the u.k. cut loose. i'm drawn by peter oborne chief political commentator for the daily telegraph and he just published a pamphlet entitled guilty men a term used to describe those trying to drag britain into the euro zone peter thanks for speaking to r.t. this term guilty men use a term used to describe nine hundred forty s. those who appease the nazis i seriously comparing brussels and the eurozone to hitler's third reich that's not the comparison i'm making what that brilliant pamphlet short book my written by michael foot and what they were analyzing was afraid of policy in the one nine hundred thirty s. that's what it was about the policy of appeasement which led to the this moment here now what we have what we're trying to do in this part of that is to allies

another failure of policy which is the attempt by the british governing elite to push britain into the your and. how we base exceeded in that period we would now be in the same situation as greece absolutely destitute was certainly little in spraying with utterly dependent on the whim of the international markets and the benevolence of the i.m.f. and of the european union so who are these men and why are they guilty the guilty man i'm delighted to name them i think it's important that we do name them they range from tony blair the british prime minister at the time his close ally peter mandelson the close friend of pascoe another russian oligarchs ken clarke or michael heseltine the conservative. politicians nick clegg the deputy prime minister danny alexander the show chiefs actually the treasury many of them retain

unbelievably very powerful positions in the british ruling elite a decade ago euro skeptics were hounded out of ply society labeled xenophobes racists fascists. what was the effect on these people's lines it's very interesting just examine the sheer ruthlessness of the pro your movement at this time they were planning to hound out of jobs the people who were skeptics recently who was the policy director of the institute of directors a key. business organization and took it she took an anti euro largely she ended up losing her job and the. stories were spread that she was mad dislocated and they were tough they were ruthless the was a kind of big part of the talk of the british establishment and the ideology of that was was was you know the european union and the euro captured the new labor

party at the time it captured the lib dems at the time british foreign office was a major manifestation of this dogmatism disgracefully so the treasury of course did hold and gordon brown not publicly but behind the scenes did work to block block the your other the trying to especially the you can dependants party they were dismissed completely for their opposition to the euro zone but now what's happening is this given the elevated status you could has really gained from this they were systematically ignored by the b.b.c. and the other establishment organs of public opinion in the service entry and interviews if they didn't exist in fact they did absolutely represent a large body of british public opinion but they were sort of science. and. i think the largest brilliantly for. this study done very interesting science it will go

into i think on discovery people who are now in you were the people who were exposing the b.b.c. lies and fabrications at the time for instance you mention the b.b.c. there but you also point to the thing. the financial times to their editorial support the u.s. and in what ways will a biased. b.b.c. in the financial times and indeed the c.b.i. the free beijing institutions i looked at the same applies to the foreign office but let's just look at the b.b.c. and the financial times they had a at the top of these organizations there was a corporate view that it was in british interests not just to be part of the european union but actually to go ahead and join the europe they understood it was a political project they weren't really interested in the economics you would expect the b.b.c. maybe from the sun economics you would hope that the financial times understood economics and they didn't and they know the economic arguments and they abandon rigorous impartial journalism is

a major part of the contract between the b.b.c. the british public that they should be honest impartial they just were they frame the debate always in the sense that made the european argument the anti euro arguments in particular look mad to ranged and sometimes even racist and they made the pro europe argument look as mainstream and sensible was the effect it had on public perception of the issue given the b.b.c.'s status as a major broadcaster well i think for a long time it was impossible to get the euro or human out very well because of the distortions created by the b.b.c. and so it made it made it a very one sided debate at the highest level at the end of the day it's quite reassuring to say of course the good sense of the british people you know the average bloke wasn't taken in by this high level attempt to sabotage

the great wrestling world freshening actually that we didn't go in it wasn't because it was the only there we go in because the average voter we. was it also the case. there being a lot of institutionalized yes men in british politics industry and media it was a mark of respectability that you were in favor of the european union in its broadest sense showed that you were a civilized person. and of course these characteristics is one of the most amusing aspects of this research is how well they will since even though they've been completely screwed shown to be utterly wrong in what i thought you know chris patten is now the chairman of the b.b.c. trust. clegg ridiculous figure in this argument completely passes graphically wrong throughout you know bush is deputy prime minister danny alexander who is the chief propagandist for the pro euro movement is

now the chief secretary to the treasury and so forth they've done unbelievably well for themselves what would you say is the most sinister aspect of brussels rise to power. it's in many ways the your opinion is such a fast competent organization that it's quite hard to take it seriously if it can't get its accounts. can't. it's sort of fantastically retained in its sort of way and so on the other hand there is a ruthlessness to it and if you have a any sense of humanity or a sense of compassion. what is happening with the euro now which is the imposition of a very dogmatic monetary policy on a whole set of diverse nations is it's horrific i mean the destruction of the greek economy greek businesses the creation of mass and unemployment in greece.

is really horrendous and it comes from the dogma you have to have a single currency and a single monetary policy and economic policy across a very diverse continent gemini's just deepen exposure to eurozone losses even further and it seems like there's no turning back to they really think this is making economic sense here or is it more political face saving if you read the english mountain climbing guide mountain rescue it says turn back if conditions turn against you and the price to be plus all sorts of things for intervention school generally iraqi eventually you that piece of advice might well be useful but afghanistan but it also applies i think to the euro zone i mean the euro zone was an experiment. be your skeptics advised against it. but they've gone

on ahead but it is not creating financial chaos it's creating the potential of a great financial cataclysm and it's also just wiping out industry it's across europe as an extraordinary pace a terrifying pace they are they are fanatic they're fanatics and you know we. have them in many ways to be called the communists in the one nine hundred thirty is one of the everything has to fit into that very narrow precise scheme of a thing is you what you can't who was it who said you can't make an omelet without breaking eggs that was the ice cube of the bullshit. because it's in the first twenty's and thirty's this is now the seat of the european elites it at the turn of the twenty first century greece is being destroyed people are losing their jobs their actual economic basis of the country has gone but that is a worthwhile sacrifice as we move towards

a unified europe was found in this fanaticism and. if the u.k. had joined the euro saying what has happened would have been another greece i can tell you what would have happened if you had joint it would have been even worse because we we had a boop like boom anyway it would be bigger in the first we have had a smallish interest rates would have been less than they would otherwise would have been the first half of the. the first decade of the twenty first century and then they would be higher than three months ago so we did have a bigger boot and we had a bigger bust we had we wouldn't have been able to pay our debts on the international markets we've now be we now be controlled by the i.m.f. taking orders from the e.c.b. . and and by the in from brussels we would have lost the ability to control our economy we have lost the ability to project ourselves internationally it would

have been a complete and total economic and political disaster if we had joined the euro ten years ago. thank you thank you very much.
