any objective measure the euro is a four year old breaking up is hard to do but if it were up to nigel farage that's exactly what the e.u. would be doing and he isn't afraid to tell leaders to stick it where the sun don't shine we'll speak to the u.k. independence party leader himself. i talk about personal liberty in the right to people's personal life for getting and stopping these wars and coming home and having a sensible monetary policy all the republican field has seen its share of changes throughout the years but ron paul's message has always been the same and his popularity is on the rise so are people standing behind this texan doctor or the ideology he stands for will take a look at ron paul the man the man the presidential contender. and it's a bird it's a plane no it's a predator drone but this isn't afghanistan it's north dakota and police forces aren't looking for terrorists they're spying on your neighbors welcome to a police state usa. it's tuesday december thirteenth five pm in washington d.c. i'm liz wahl and you're watching artsy well we begin with the crisis in the euro zo

some people that have been against the eurozone from the get go and one of those people is that nigel farage the leader of the u.k. independence party and i want to just play again he's been against euro zone from day one so obviously this is sort of a i told you so but i do want to show you his reaction to the meetings in the last twenty four hours and also his prediction for things to come. i think of the next twenty four hours the seventeen politicians not people's will agree that they are going to push on that they are going to give incredible dictatorial powers to i'm elected bureaucrats based in brussels the markets will remain extremely nervous and remember that even the package that talking about today will take until march to implement and i think in the meantime the eurozone in particular the mediterranean countries are extremely vulnerable indeed so joe for people who are sort of against this thing people like nigel farage. what are they thinking right now well i think they have to re pretty vindicated to be honest. the euro skeptics vision and predictions have basically come true

of belt tightening its lower house of parliament is about to vote for more austerity measures nigel farage leader of the u.k. independence party says the hands of eurozone struggle is a tide or they are trapped within the plot but don't forget that politicians will always defend the status quo they will always tell you that if what we have now doesn't continue to exist the sky will fall they'll be family. has to be a complete disaster we've seen this before many times over the years the reality is that the breakdown of the euro in the short would be tough because many many european banks would go bust. probably have to be nationalized but as we've seen with iceland who back in two thousand and eight let some of their banks go bust accepted the situation three years on they going back to growth i think the biggest threat we face now in europe is to keep countries like greece and portugal and ireland and possibly even spain and italy to trapped inside an economic prison stripped of their democracy i mean literally the governments of greece and italy were removed by these bully boys in brusse

nigel farage says in order to save the single currency in european states will have to sacrifice their sovereignty to brussels. i think of a next twenty four hours the seventeen politicians not peoples will agree that they are going to push on that they are going to give incredible dictatorial powers to i'm elected bureaucrats based in brussels the markets will remain extremely nervous and remember that even the package they're talking about today will take until march to implement and i think in the meantime the eurozone in particular the mediterranean countries are extremely vulnerable indeed and i do not discount the a breakdown of the markets will overwhelm the whole euro problem and that the euro zone countries and the e.u. institutions will find themselves simply not big enough to cope with believe you me if we were to put this your aid package to the electorates of greece of portugal ireland this really of spain they would all say no because you know the better solution is to have their own currencies back to have a successful competitive devaluation and then only then to put in

interviewed nigel farage the leader of the u.k. independence party he has been against the euro zone from the start but i want to show you his reaction and also his prediction for things to come i think in the next twenty four hours the seventeen politicians not peoples will agree that they are going to push on the they are going to give incredible dictatorial powers to i'm elected bureaucrats based in brussels the markets will remain extremely nervous and remember that even the package that talking about today will take until march to implement and i think in the meantime the eurozone in particular the mediterranean countries are extremely vulnerable indeed. all right joe couple questions here on number one the fact that this won't even be implemented tell march in some ways when you talk about the economy that is a long way off and i also want to ask you i mean a lot of the countries that did sort of sign on to this they're still very wary of this loss of sovereignty so what does this all mean. i think that some of the right merg

will have a global impact world leaders are concerned some are even pointing fingers here is that nigel farage is the co-president for the europe of freedom and democracy that group expressing his anger at the situation. you are all in denial by any objective measure the euro is a failure i do is actually responsible hooting shone out of you lot one of those the answer is none of you because none of you have been elected none of you actually have any democratic legitimacy for the roles that you currently hold within this crisis so i mean just your reaction to that is the euro a failure is this whole system for the first seventeen countries was it a little too ambitious of the earth as in the euro is in terrible shape as is your you're a brit large there are already heading into a recession with global ramifications i think it is important to talk about how serious the crisis is and also to remember that british and american commentators have successfully forecasted one hundred of the twelve actual problems that the euro has had and there have been a number of folks rooting against the euro som

have the break and you know what a few months of the world see very it will seem very much rosier nigel farage than all of these cross talk show is taking on the organizations whose decisions trigger roller coaster rides on the markets peter pan and he gets a rating the rating agencies and that's coming up a little later today here on r.t. . one of the issues one of the problems with trying to make the ratings better through issuing having fines or having a system of penalties is that people like richard just say well we should just get rid of ratings altogether because they're obviously conflicted and stupid let's get rid of them but you know what they're just plays in that place is not only really agencies in a sense because we don't get stronger i married. his themselves because you have these voices saying let's get rid of richard well that's mischaracterizing my position a little because i didn't say let's get rid of ratings of course we need ratings i said let's get you know let's not tinker with a system that's so broken in terms of its incentives. crosstalk a little later today here on
