maybe the union was a lousy idea. daniel webster, who had a keen, legal mind, started making the argument for succession -- secession. after andrew jackson miraculously won the battle of new orleans, webster would renege and start to backpedal. one of my themes is this question of -- is secession legitimate? can states interfere with the enforcement of federal law? this is going to be pinned on the south in the 1860's and this is the justification for the union fighting against secession. they came up first in the war of 1812. a came up a second time in the 1830's when south carolina threaten to leave the union over eight tariff -- threaten to leave it the union over a tariff. let me ask you, if you had to summarize the causes of the american revolution in a slogan words, what was the slogan? no taxation without representation. the american revolution was all about taxes. andle took taxes seriously south carolina was set to leave the union because they did not bill that ill -- tax congress had passed. hadle like john c

the customs union has 20,000 tariffs. i am amazed that labour are supporting the customs union. re talking about hurting the poor. 60% tariffs on shoes, on meats, apparel... but with this border issue in ireland, or will britain have to stay in the customs union? no, their own advisor has an issue to it now. it is being rejected by the eu. where does it go from here? polly, do you think, at this point, that theresa may, even though she has categorically said and promised britain will not be in the customs union, that she is going to renege that? it has been put perfectly. she is having to renege all the time because she made red lines that are contradictory. she made an impossible trying all. my hunch is that we will end up in something so like the customs union, it may not be called the customs union, because in the end that is what suits us. the fantasy of all this trade elsewhere compared with the tariffs and the barriers put up against us if we don't are just so daunting, as one industry after another discovers what is about to hit them, including even, ironically, the fishin

the monitor class vessels were all union. but really what was more important was the ironclad warships, whether union or confederate, that is what really changes at least the public idea of what the worship should be. you have -- a warship should be. you have debates in parliament, i think the news arrived in london around march 20 or thereabouts. you had debates in parliament -- well, our entire navy is inland. it was not quite the case, but you did see programs in other countries and after the american civil war when there was not a need, some of them were sold to south america. you do see these being built throughout the century. the confederate ironclads, there were far fewer, and most would be built on the design of the uss virginia with a few exceptions. the virginia was probably a difficult vessel to build. they built a full-scale version, and it was an engineering marvel and very time-consuming. they had these same sloping sides but did not have the rounded portions. but there were far fewer of them. i would say, if yo

we had a trade deficit with the european union of $151 billion last year. that's unacceptable. this has been going on for many years and that's unacceptable. the treasury secretary, steve mnuchin, will be going to china in a few days to negotiate on trade. eng chi i think china is very serious. we're very serious. we have no choice but to be very serious. you know we've put on very substantial tariffs. that will continue unless we make a trade deal. i think we're -- we've got a good chance of making a deal. as you know, they just stated, president xi, a terrific guy and a good friend of mine, but he's representing china and i'm representing the united states. president xi made a speech four days ago where he said that china's going to be opened up. it's not opened up rooight now. they did $504 billion last year and we did $120 billion. that's a tremendous imbalance. we can't have that. so we're going to have a delegation at their request go to china. they came here recently, and we're going there. that'll be good. european union, by the way, we are going back to that. we're nego

of the customs union. r that has certainly erupted now. it is the showdown issue on different visions of brexit; a new frontier in the remain—leave war. it's suddenly the centre of attention, partly because the lords voted for a pro—customs union amendment last week, but also because the sunday times reported that theresa may would not be too upset if she was forced to keep britain tied to the eu customs zone. downing street last night said otherwise. so is it really now in play? the first point is politics: mps will get more than one chance to vote on it and could easily end up supporting it. if they do, we're in an interesting world and you can draw complex decision trees of the different scenarios. and then the second point is that the eu may make it costly to refuse the customs union at some point. nick watt can explain. the reason i've been seeing brexit and brexit is closely because it does. brexit means brexit. brexit means brexit. brexit means brexit. and we are going to make a success of it. it's t

but support for the european union is picking up again. and i'm sure erdogan is looking over his shoulder and taking note of this. this picking up, i would argue, is a function of the state of turkey's neighborhood, but also of economics. yet when in these surveys the public is asked whether you believe turkey would one day become a member of the european union, the percentages are extremely low compared to what it was in 2004 and 2005. >> i think this point about erdogan spreading roses to the eu or kind of noticing that perhaps support for the eu is picking up is really indicative of what i think of him as this nimble but sort of erratic tactician whereby there's a very strong sense that he can shift his position quite quickly on a number of issues like russia and israel but also when it comes to the eu. does the really hostile rhetoric that he's been using against the netherlands and germany, does that kind of close off any space for -- does that create hard feelings that are really difficult to reconcile? or can those be forgotten and p

it's hugely corrosive, isn't it, to unity in the european union? nation can be suspended — can lose its right to vote in european institutions, because it is acting in a way that the other member states regard as entirely contrary to european values. it is a tough procedure with tough possible results. but to answer your question as to on whether it is a domestic or european issue, in thejustice area, we have to maintain 100% trust between the member states, because thejudges in member state one now has to fully trust thejudges in member state two. in the recentjudgment of the irish judge, she already asked the european court ofjustice if she can still trust the polish judiciary in the case related to the european arrest warrant. it's a warning signal. not only for the eu, but also for poland, that we need to solve this and solve this soon. and i hope — i don't know if i share the optimism of 80% — but i do hope we will settle this oon. well, let's put this in a broader perspective. this is notjust about poland. this notion of deep discontent in eas

well we're talking about a system within the european union within the eurozone that can weather storms like we had with the financial crisis in the past in a much better way to make this much more stable and most people would agree for example that the german imposed austerity was bad for the southern states it hurt the e.u. it created a rift between the north and the south that's one point but what is right for the e.u. and maybe even i'm going to mecca would agree on that is not necessarily something that is supported politically by the different populations for example in germany it's very hard to push through the ideas like mccraw is mentioning them right now because germans easily get the impression that they're just paying for the rest of the european union to bail them out without having control over where this money goes but it seems fairly well i can sensual on an expert level of people we talked to that you need to share the burden more that the construction as we have it now won't work for a future financial problem and that's an issue that you mentioned is not quite so popu

respect between the united states and the russian federation or the european union in russia for that matter both sides don't seem predictably very much predictable particularly the russian side i have to say and rules obviously missing of conduct rules of conduct that have been adhered to during the cold war so in disrespect we are not in the cold war as we had it's but we have a very different situation. i don't know again if you would agree with me but i think there is a very big difference between how russia and the west particularly the united states perceive a war i think in russia there is still a fear or a very a visceral fear off a nuclear confrontation i think russians that is the reason why russians bring out the issue of nuclear deterrence so often to show that they are you know that they want to thwart the development of that scenario but clearly americans don't perceive it as such and so what i want to ask you is how do you think europeans or austrians feel about it do you guys still fear a nuclear winter i actually have to say i'm too. as you know the university and gen
