it's a. pleasure to have you with us here on t.v. today i'm wrong researcher. welcome to you said he and conan sophie shevardnadze right wing parties parliamentary vote with british voters throwing their support behind to hear a skeptic you keep a blog but will the car to success transfer into something bigger well david cole
11:30 am
board member of the hearing of parliament for scotland is my guest today. a venue with the euro skeptic you keep party took the recent do you elections by stool suggesting that britons are getting fed up with mainstream politicians in london in brussels. is this the beginning of the end for britain's euro story will you keep success force change to big parties or was it merely a fleeting protest vote. david cobra scottish. thanks for joining us it's great to have you on our program today that we're going to start from the latest news day european commission has demanded a six billion hike to a budget from the u.k. now where is that money go inc was there a good question of where's the money going they don't seem to know whether the previous money's gone for nineteen years they haven't been able to all that the accounts. well now you guys after the elections have twenty four places in the
11:31 am
european parliament is that enough to do anything to change anything well the problem of the european parliament is being a member of the european parliament like being a eunuch at an orgy the problem is you don't actually have any real power you can suggest legislation you can only react to it so what i will be doing is doing my best and i as my policy will be to highlight the more ridiculous aspects of the rules and regulations that tried to bring in and try to our best choose to stop that which we can just say with twenty four members that should be a lot a lot better than it was before we have a good team here they're good quality team they're all very united very together and we will be making a mark in the not only just in one pass the u.k. but the whole of the u.k. including scotland wales and we will be able to take the case for all those policy united kingdom to the european union. talking about what's going on inside the u.k.
11:32 am
now i remember in two thousand and nine hear a pin elections your party had similar success got very good points but it failed to win a single set in the parliament later in the general elections are you afraid the same thing may happen this time round. i think there's a great change now in the united kingdom i think people have had enough of the establishment parties the top they've made a very bad mess of the whole thing people want to change and i think. there's a sort of almost like a revolutionary change in the way people are looking at politics in the united kingdom and i think that they want to come and break the form of the three party system and i think we need to break through in a major way at the general election well so pretty controversial a specially what this stablish and i mean shadow foreign secretary. people have turned to you as a protest. there's some truth to that. i should think it was
11:33 am
a protest but it's more than just that. all the establishment which led us to the financial banking catastrophe we had recently. have not made a very good job of getting out of it. a professional political class that seems immovable. they want to change they want to be. seen to be by the political class they want real people in parliament. are going to give them now let me ask you this let's say you. are the party. would you consider that as a success for you obviously but i've. been taking them is. basically the party now. in the european elections and we hope to carry that through to become the first party in
11:34 am
the united kingdom obviously realistic to win some seats in the general election. to hold the balance of power. in terms of creating a larger. group in the parliament are you. trying to form a bloc. leader is doing that at the moment he's very good at the sort of thing getting somewhere we're making headway looking very good but these things. are the question. that was i was asking you about a specific. we will not be doing business with them at the end of her party. which is just.
11:35 am
we just sort of thing. people and quite frankly that would be unacceptable. but the trouble is in the european parliament european problem strange bedfellows you have to get into into bed with all sorts of people you wouldn't want to take home to see your mother but that's what i'm saying i cannot set differences aside and work with not in the plan per se for the sake of a bigger cause. because. we were a socialist party and also the have a lot of history. isn't that sort of thing absolutely unacceptable to you can't we we're meant to resist party we don't believe in that sort of nonsense it's certainly not our way of doing things it's very we certainly would have nothing to do with it ok so david cameron has launched a real complaint to blogs on care from becoming europe's next year a commissioner is that something also supports. who are the last person we want to see is mr you're running your piece an absolute catastrophe of
11:36 am
the first water obviously cameron's trying to save face by claiming who look we stop at the bridge and someone equally appalling i can assure you of that. it will be someone equally bad cameron will try to make some big issue out what clever i've been i've stopped. but that's not going to wash with the british people people people see it all before they've had it all before and all the candidates standing for that position are equally appalling. but this is probably not the only point that you agree with you and cameron i mean cameron also says he plans to hold a referendum on leaving the e.u. curbing immigration is also on the conservative agenda so what's the big difference between your parties at the end of the day. their difference is that cameron almost at the last time before the last european election didn't deliver it cameron promise with again and he promises it after the general election when the light who
11:37 am
did you're not going to get later anyway so quite frankly is an empty promise and this is a major promise made last time nobody believes him you know the nickname is cast on camera he has cast iron guarantees which north he's not going to give a referendum the man to your enthusiastic the last thing he's going to do is give a referendum on the in the road to the european union the only party that is going to do that is you can't say you don't think they're our friend i'm going to take place within two years even though he promised it would. no i don't think you he has no intention whatsoever the man that cameron is a you're enthusiastic he has absolutely no intention of giving anyone a referendum about anything he didn't do it last time he will do it this time ok about a year that are great here a skeptic so you're all for leaving the european union would do you not think that it would have certain referee questions and consequences for their care were a very least economically. well of course that one consequence is will be the
11:38 am
positives far outweigh the negatives will be able to organize our own economic future we won't be tied down by the european union when it comes to international trade treaties. we will be burdened by the enormous burden of laws rules and regulations which you know cause europe to be the school monster it is i mean the reason that europe is going going going all the time is because the rules and regulations are killing it strangling business it's anticompetitive antibusiness and you only have to look at the disaster that has taken place in spain italy greece to see the contrast to this week to everyone else absolute. you know something we should definitely get away from we don't want the euro the year is a catastrophe we have what you don't has i'm here as you know how we're here i mean i would think that u.k. is in a very very religious position compared to other countries you don't even have the shango to sell but you do have
11:39 am
a great trade going on with all the european union countries and all the privileges step the european member trade i want to chance do you think you'll be able to carry out any trends already so yes. yes we will be the germans want to see. we want to buy french champagne and they want our goods so you know course trade is going to continue as per usual to be any difference you know everybody wants to do business we don't need to be linked to each other as one great nation to be able to do business we did perfectly well before the european union to do perfectly well after it ok and so the british accent how big of a blow would it be for the here a p.r. union itself what do you think. britain leaves probably will be a mortal blow for the european union because we're going to find the money at the moment the main countries are supporting european union britain and germany. and quite frankly i don't think the european union will be able to to stagger on in its
11:40 am
present form if it's all after we leave basically it's bankrupt it's so it's unworkable there are too many people wanting money out of it not enough people willing to pay money into it so quite frankly economic mess the euro is a catastrophe is not an economic currency it's a political currency it has no proper economic foundation and as such it's created disaster in southern europe million people marching on madrid complain about unemployment most of cocktails being thrown around in athens and italy talking about breaking up into constituent parts it's been disastrous for europe. so you're saying if britain is to leave then that will be the end of the e.u. well we're going to take a break right now hold your thought there will be back with david culbert here keep a member of the european parliament for scotland is up more about the challenges britain faces at home and abroad stay with us.
11:41 am
debating american foreign policy is there one any more traditionally the political left and right and clearly different positions on how washington should exert power in the world today it appears to everyone. in the establishment is a ha. i know c.n.n. the m.s.m. b c fox news have taken some slightly but the fact is i admire their commitment to cover all sides of the story just in case one of them happens to be accurate. that
11:42 am
was funny but it's close and for the truth from the might think. it's because when full attention and the mainstream media works side by side the joke is actually on here. and our teen years we have a different brain. ok because the news of the world just is not this funny i'm not laughing dammit i'm not i. have. to get a sense of the jokes i will handle to make that happen. i
11:43 am
marinate join me. in parker and find out more commentary interviews and much much. only on the best and only. right. and i think you're. on our reporters'.
11:44 am
economic downturns in the final. days. and the rest because i was doing the make believe every week. we're back with david coburn here kate member of the european parliament for scotland it's great to have you with us now david to you fail there are disadvantages to being a single issue party what i mean is that if the u.k. leaves the e.u. what then for he ok. well we hope to take over government in the u.k. i mean we've been advancing steadily with the election we have the trampoline of
11:45 am
coming number one in the in the european election would be looking to take a lot of westminster seats and we were looking to form a government in the united kingdom as soon as we could get enough people in parliament to do so. i understand that you would want to be in a government and take westminster as states but what would be your agenda in terms of if the main issue at hand is gone and the united kingdom leaves the european union what's the second biggest. how well. it's more than just a european or anti european union has no what we're about we're about an entire change in the way britain is governed and we posed to the to the current political class we want to remove these this professional class labor conservative it liberal democrats all the same sort of people cameron clegg you know. they're all the same sort of person then none of them ever had a proper job in their lives we want to see real people going to real life
11:46 am
experiences now that sort of people who stand for as members of parliament for ukip that's a sort of people who want people are fed up with the professional politicians professional political class they want real people who could really experience is running the country and that's what we stand for that's we want that's very very and what would you know what would you offer to people different that what cameron doesn't offer to them or any other professional politicians what what what is it what is it going for and what you're offering to the people in terms of agenda well you ukip ukip has support from all different parts of society we try to greet you of labor voters coming towards us and if you believe the party no role no longer represents the working man. of middle class bleeding heart society. the conservative party are only interested in big business their bottom paid for by big business the liberals are bought and paid for by the european union one assumes they buy it so quite frankly the only party that really seems to represent all the
11:47 am
people small businesses and a change in the way the country is governed is ukip but from what i understand new people also supports a five year ban on a make ration to saddle alongside a system of temporary work permits what do you think was it the immigration issue that want to hear a say it's for you keeping the first place well. european open door immigration policy has been a catastrophe and we have open door immigration we simply can't have it we can't budget for schools we can't budget for pensions we can't budget for anything if you don't know who's coming into the country or how many people are coming to the country and it also creates a great deal of problems socially and in terms of salaries people the bottom of society feel that their salaries are being are being crushed. you know they're not on the same much money they were before there's a lot of competition coming from elsewhere that's simply not on we can have that
11:48 am
sort of thing going you know there's an o.e.c.d. research that actually found my grants each make and that contribution of two thousand dollars a year to the british economy do you simply just not believe that. well migration watch came out with different figures everybody comes out with different figures about this yes the. immigrants i vi were living in the remaining it was a country that i would be heading for britain as fast as i could be heading for spain or greece or any of the european countries which are bankrupt at the moment thanks to the european union and the euro to be heading for the u.k. every one of the better lives but it's not a question of that is a question we cannot just have unlimited immigration it's not fair on the people who live here at the moment we want to give everyone the opportunity if they can contribute something to the economy but we cannot just mass open door immigration it's impossible now off the economic subject that still has to deal with immigration another interesting thing in. sharia courts and the sheriff street
11:49 am
patrols in britain what are your feelings about that federally on acceptable there is only one law in great britain and that's the queen's law that's it the queen makes a law. in great britain is over and we cannot have other bodies making any other form of law it's utterly unacceptable to come to britain they come because they respect our institutions and they want to live on there are institutions so they obviously should respect those institutions we can't have a state within the state that is utterly unacceptable but do you feel in general the islamic extremism or the islam is a shin of hero. is as a kid a problem from for britain as it is for example for france. well i mean this is a very very big question. that people are coming to settling year in western europe for the coming to settle in england or in france they should respect the laws of
11:50 am
those countries they obviously bring something of their own culture with them which is always the general spice of things makes things more interesting but those are the set of laws and the ways of doing things in those countries. and we just can't have people coming along and changing things in that way especially in ways which we consider myself to consider to be utterly unacceptable what do you think about the scottish referendum in september do you think it's staying in the u.k. or it's leaving the u.k. what are your feelings. well scott and scott's to make up their own mind but my personal belief will be seventy thirty or sixty forty against independence for scotland we've had a three hundred year old alliance and has a three hundred year old lines with england which is benefit both countries and enable both of us to punch above our weight on the world stage we have brought liberal democracy to the world we've got parliamentary government a lot of a lot of the world. and we have brought peace to the world we've fought together
11:51 am
the russians against fascism in europe we've done lots of things together what's not to like about that. there's no offering independence and only mr salmon who's the leader of the sculpture national party of. all for the rule from brussels because he want to remain part of the european union he wants to rule from brussels and financial rule from frankfurt independence well let's say the u.k. survives the scottish referendum do you think there'll be a change in the i think well will ok and do you think things will stay just the same or there will be a drastic change in the governing system. to be discussed after the scottish referendum at the moment is a bidding war between all the parties offering the scots lots of different sort of . goodies quite frankly you keep on doing that we want to make up their own mind they're quite people do not to by themselves. let's talk a little bit about
11:52 am
a topic that actually worries us the most in this part of the world which is ukraine and now one of the leaders of the movement in ukraine issued an appeal for help to you keep expecting your party will understand mr ukraine's to reluctant to be part of the e.u. do you understand where those people are coming from. well no i would quite frankly that this whole business in the ukraine quite frankly is is caused by the european union and particularly cathy ashton who's quote unquote fired for the job is as the european foreign minister whatever she's called this is the european union trying to do a bit of empire building extending into the ukraine and making offers which the cattle fulfill because the european union hasn't got money to rebuild the ukrainian economy they lead the ukrainians and so false sense of security which you know is absolute nonsense. when when the the berlin wall came down when russia changed from being a communist nation the general idea everybody understood where the demarcation was
11:53 am
between the russian zulu influence and the european zone of influence the western sort of influence that's been respected here to for but you know this is not respect respecting russia's sovereign territory or indeed russia's zone or sphere of influence and i think going about interfering with that and making russia feel uncomfortable is creating problems throughout the european union is worrying people right on the front is from poland. all on the frontier our concern about what the european union are doing in the in the in the crimea we should leave it strictly alone it does not for us to interfere and that regard mr putin is a very strong man i don't respect everything he's done a particularly disagree with what's happened about homosexuals in russia i think that's quite appalling but you know he is a strong man he runs the country he must be respected and russia is
11:54 am
a strong nation which we must respect and there are big players on the world stage we can't go around fighting with them and the european union simply don't understand that their impossibilities go out of control because merely a very very serious situation as amateurs getting involved things they do nothing about you know cameron's threaten more sanctions against russia over the whole here crane in crisis and they share the country will go along with that i mean especially taking into consideration how much russian money they're raised in that british economy as of today. i think it's an annoyance and sold this to for tat sanctions against russia russia is a sovereign nation and we can't do business with russia if we if we treat it like that some sort of pariah we simply can't do the sort of thing we have to respect russia's integrity we have to respect from tears and zones of influence i think this is not the way to go about things with russia people should talk quietly in the corridors of power we should not be having a shouting match with megaphones this is absolutely not the way to do things now
11:55 am
you have later a call to proposal of partnership with ukraine a massive predication he said this demonstrates danger of foreign policy what do you think maybe joining the could now help ukraine. no i don't think so i don't think your opinion has got the money to do with it who's going to pay for this is going to be the german the british taxpayer well i'm afraid we just don't have the money to stop propping up the ukraine we have enough troubles in our own economy it was the common things he can prop up the ukraine and he's crazy quite frankly we should not be getting involved in this we don't have the money to deal with it and we don't have the ability to do with it and we should not be interfering and the russians russians of russians of influence it's a very bad thing thank you so much for this interesting interview we're talking to david carr burns member of the european parliament for scholars were talking about whether united kingdom should stay within the european union are not that's it for
