rob watson is live for us in central london. t tell us how all this emerged. >> well, it emerged through a german news magazine where essentially you've had the chancellor, the german chancellor saying something through sources that we hadn't heard before, and that is basically germany contemplating the idea that britain could leave the european union, because i think it's worth rowing back to first principles, both germany wants britain to stay in the european union and david cameron leading the british government wants to stay in the european union. but there is a negotiation that's about to start over, well, what part of the eu's arrangements could you unpick, and essentially what you've now got as the german chancellor laying down a red line, making things extremely difficult for david cameron. >> and i suppose the impact that this has had underlines the importance of the issues of immigration and the european union as we approach an election in may. >> absolutely. the intervention from germany has very much raised the politi

cameron's speech, how it will go down inside the uk and the rest of the european union, i'm joined by rob watson, our political correspondent and jenny hill, our correspondent in berlin. rob, let me start with you, if i may. he's trying to tread a very delicate path here, mr. cameron. do you think he succeeded today? >> you're right about the task that he faced, and certainly i think perhaps in some ways for some people, it was a surprisingly nuanced speech. this wasn't a speech saying oh, my goodness, all of britain's problems are to do with foreigners, let's get rid of them all and let's not have any more in. this is not some sort of anti-immigrant rant. because he was trying to strike a balance. that's a balance between acknowledging, saying to british voters, look, i get it, i've seen the opinion polls that suggest british people are really worried about the extraordinary levels of migration into this country since the 1990s. on the one hand. but also, that he understood the concerns of business in britain, and britain's partners in europe who don't want to see an isolationist britain. so th

with me is the bbc's uk political correspondent rob watson. a very interesting speech, actually, because it wasn't with a you would call an anti-immigrant rant in any shape or form, but he's talking about the need for control. where does he get that control from? >> you're absolutely right. not an anti-immigrant rant. and of course, we're obliged to just pick out a clip, but what was really striking about the speech was that it was incredibly nuanced. this was david cameron not trying to be a tub-thumping, anti-immigrant. but anyway, he did have to address two very big concerns and that is a vote of concern here about high levels of migration. and he had two choices about how britain might try to address that. you could try and say to the european union, we're not going to have freedom of movement, we want quotas, we want emergency cutoffs. he was advised that was a no-go. so you try to make britain a bit less attractive. so let's say you're a poor worker in southern europe. you tinker with the benefits system here in britain to make it a bit

rob o'neill decided to speak exclusively to fox news for a special that airs tomorrow night and wednesday night. but many of his superiors say he had no right to go public. howard watsonhe joins us alongside his wife, debbie, live in our studio today. good morning to both of you. >> good morning. >> now, howard, you've never met rob o'neill. >> no. >> but you're a former navy seal. what do you think about the fact that he has decided now, since this was one of the greatest military operations of our generation -- he would like to reveal himself and tell the story about what really happened. do you have a problem with that? >> i have absolutely no problem with that. as a matter of fact, if i were a general or admiral or a secretary of defense, he would be under pressure or any type of heat right now. as a matter of fact, my thoughts are this comes down to first amendment rights, which is freedom of speech. he hasn't given up any classified information. i mean, the administration did that after the raid. >> they made movies, people have written books. >> arguably, spring boarded this president into a second term. so for the actual shooter to come forward if it's going t

rob places. had nothing to do with the actual events. >> just crime of opportunity. don't even know what the actual story was probably for some of them. benjamin watson that leadership within the family where everything needs to begin. when the decision came down and saw clashes with the police and the fires and the police cars being knocked over and everything else, you saw children out there, some of them on the front lines with their parents, you wonder what kind of parents would take their kids out there into the danger zone. well, ben i can't minute watson says it does all begin with the family. and whichever side you fall on, mom and dad really need to weigh in. leadership comes from the household. it comes from the family. as a parent of four kids, my kids need to look to me for that leadership. and it's my job as a parent to tell them what's real and what's not real and to grow them up, to be respectful. to do things the right way. so that we can avoid some of these things that happened. >> go to our facebook page ff weekend. we posted up his quotes there from his fain page. can you read them and weigh in. more on this throughout the show. >>
