- Emmanuel Macron says in an interview with Channel 4 News that, in the event of Brexit, he will be "tough on the British Government.” Subscribe for more exclusive interviews: bit.ly/LtASif.
In his first UK television interview since he came to the fore, Emmanuel Macron says that, if Britain leaves the EU, we can be certain he won’t soften. He also believes that Marine Le Pen would "kill" the EU if she was elected.

It's funny how he's a lot more straightforward in English. Struggling a bit to express himself actually allows him to get to the point and answer the questions. I find him a lot more likable in this interview.
Same.
English is a more straightforward language imo. I often get frustrated by how many more words it takes to says things in French.
@travpoet Hmmm I'll have to think about that. Every time I think of how "counter-clockwise" is said in French, I laugh, but it is very clear. You may be right.
French tends to make politicians sound pretentious and long winded....you can speak for ages in french and say almost nothing..empty bla bla that so many french politicians excel at. It must be said that his english really is very good...for a frogo....
@@stevemorse108 honestly it really depends on which country speaks French in Canada and in some countries in Africa we are as direct as in English but French from France really takes poetical ways to finally say one sentence. French is the same but the spoken manner is different
First French President who speaks very good English:)
Yes but he is not as good as you think in his political career
Everyone hates him but people internationally think he is good because they don’t know what’s going on in France
As a French I confirm
@@striker8795 Whether Jacque Chirac wasnt a polyglot?
@@somethingsecretsteersus5115 Yeah he speak english too but like every people in the world except few people. We never had a President who speak German or Russian for exemple
@@killersg.8290 not everyone hates him in France stop lying
This is the first French president who can actually REALLY speak English. Good job.
He's younger. The younger generation do much better in English.
and very very very sexy man. I love Macron. Is very caliente . Me encanta :)
One of the few people bothered to speak English. He's a total nationalist imperialist this guy. He's outright lying to the left and it's godly.
and he speaks better than Donald Trump haha
The euro is dead according to Le Pen. Well, the euro during the US financial crisis peaked. 1 EURO = $ 1.60.
Now the industrialized countries are experiencing the greatest economic crisis since the Second World War. The single currency has always remained, and continues to exceed the dollar. Do not they believe that Le Pen has been funded by the British Conservative party and Trump? A strong European Union is a threat to the great powers. Currently the European Union is the main market power. A federal Europe is a threat to the United States. Merkel shuffles an army at European level, to which Trump responded with threats. Racist nationalists are voted by people with a low socio-cultural level who have never left the neighborhood in which they live. I think Macron is pure air for those of us who believe in a united, stronger and more federal Union.A question . Where were the Eurosceptics when there was no crisis? The Union must be for the hard and for the mature.
First time in history that a French President speaks better English than the guy in the White House? 😄
Talk is cheap actions speak louder than words no matter how well they come out.
Giscard and Chirac were both fluent in english.
Nous sommes les meilleurs ;)
pas à ce niveau, hélas. Mais, comparés à d'autres....
Americans do not speak good English, anyway.
This man is seriously impressive. I doubt a single British Politian could speak any foreign language so well. And what they have to say even in English is nothing a sensible as this Guy
A Daily Reminder: PSG bottled a 4-0 lead Boris Johnson speaks fluent French
Boris Johnson speaks shit, mangled French - corrected it for you, English ignoramus!
A Daily Reminder: PSG bottled a 4-0 lead ....?¿~?
A Daily Reminder: PSG bottled a 4-0 lead what's the point. Everyone speaks english
jiman kim Everyone?
he's good at speaking English
He is young, intelligent and an european.
So NOT DonOLD Trump 😌🤣
Also intelligent vs a buffoon, so like, the litteral opposite, even if he is alittle too centrist for my liking , I fancy myself in favor of social democracy and question and research any bullshit that's spoon fed to me
He is not! People dislike him and he won’t be president again
You may think that but every month there is always gonna be a riot in Paris because of how people Hate macron and he is corrupt (i think). Here in France, almost everyone is gonna hate him
@@lolabrun9865 these Muslims dislike him not us
First interview I’ve seen of him. Quite impressed with his openness and politeness.
He speaks a really good English #notthatbadforaFrench
Substance is what matters, but yes...great English.
Emmanuel Macron is awesome. I really hope & I honestly thinks that he will win. Fuck the other comments on this page as they're Melenchon & Le Pen cheerleaders.
macron est une salope qui se fait fister par sa femme
we need brexit ASAP. Another issue is that people from abroad have come under Portuguese visa which classifies as a EU entry. hello people don't know there are a lot of fake Portuguese passports out there. but it's too late they've already coming
Sunny We need Brexit asap because we're tired of racist liars
+Mickael Engel Europe is not perfect need reform ,the U.K. Is feed by debt . Tax brake to the rich and corporation for years of thatcher trickle down economics which have not work out for many ,we need stop zero hour contracts in vest in education and new industry.
Eu general standard on work right is good , they need a to invest in people and in east Europe most do not what to move.
yeah, your populations are all in the UK !!!!
Not only is Emmanuel Macron super smart....his English is excellent! Bravo Mr. President for standing up for our planet and against stupidity.
He speaks well english but what consitent ideas do you take away? None !
He is good in English but no one really likes him in France. Riots every month in Paris
@@killersg.8290 That’s been commonplace ever since the 60’s. Nobody knows what the French want. Not even the French.
I like the fact that this interview is on a TGV. Go trains!
God I love the way he speaks! Macron is absolutely charming
Yes,he speaks like a BBC reporter!His speech is excellent and amazing!
@Noah Woodworth fall for a jihadi then perhaps?
@Noah Woodworth Everything about him pertains to this.
Macron is the best thing that happened for France and the EU. Europe and France will be better and stronger with him as a president. he is a very wise and smart man. Regarding England I am not that optimistic. May will not have any bargaining power and I think at this stage Europe will be way better off without England
I am pretty sure Macron would be able to make great things for France and European Union but the problem is the EU itself... the old dummies of Bruxelles are petulant to keep their place and exclusive access to power and already want block him to make the rebuild needed. It's sad to see what EU have become time passing. They are even worse than some corrupted former presidents or prime ministers when it's about money. They deal with the biggest companies lobbyists against EU inhabitants wealth. EU shouldn't have been extended more than 7 countries... despite being one of the two countries (with Germany) which has widely contributed to its buildup, France is badly treated ever since... we are only seen like tax payers and receiving less what we give
Total horseshit. Fucking dumb right wing slobs.
Then why is the EU so eager to do whatever they can to keep us in? they seem pretty hungry for our cash as well. Quite sad really
The only thing that is sad is your lack of knowledge about politics i guess...
louis l That makes absolutely 0 sense how the EU would be better if with the U.K not ‘england’.
viva emanuel macron viva europe
You like Rotschild bankers who call factory workers illeterate drunkards, tell people to get a job if they want a suit ?
JLM 2017 !!! He is better with arguments than Le Pen.
His English is better than Trumps English...
Hum he has an accent
Trust me, because of the sounds, its REALLY NOT easy for a french to speak in english
Frankly, macron's accent his rather french than english. But he is still better than the former politicians in france and specifically hollande 😂
No, it's not
I appreciate such a politician especially French who speak his mind straight to the point. He speaks a good English and will definitely make our country more well represented worldwide to the place that France deserves! About his 4 years of banker at Rothschild I don't think he did the crapiest job on earth in comparison with other politician. At least he did not stole the state money like some people from the right and previous President like Sarkozy. He is also not linked to any lawsuit which is rare in our world (several affaires stick to a lot of politicians asses) go go Macron, you are our hope and a better futur for our people and children's ✔️👌🏽
he would new and modern! is that france need! so 60%of france want! like us old french want old solutions! not for me and active peoples we want go like y said! do you said y working for you Manu!

J'emmerde ce fdp de Macron il représente rien du tout ce sous homme à la botte de la reich chancelière...
Real smart guy. Agree or disagree with his policies, the man is super smart. Too bad he can't run in the U.S!
MAcron will be a great president. He has everything and doesn't work in extremes.
that didnt age well.
bella50008 why?
@@bella50008 he's doing great so far. Only idiots on the far left and right disagree
He's cute.
HUAHUAHUHAAHHuhuahuahuhUHUAHUHuhuahuhUHAUHUhuhauhuhUHUAHUAH
The reason women vote on anyone
I have some disagreements with his policies, but I have to commend him for how straight he talks. He actually answers the questions asked instead of sidestepping them in order to repeat prepared talking points, which is the standard way for politicians to respond.
Because English isn't his mother tongue, it's obviously tricky to sidestep questions and you have to master the language in order to make some tricky things!
As a French I can tell you that we are making joke about him because nobody really knows what is his project... He is really like the politician stereotype who expresses no idea but instead who tries to charm people, and you're being charmed, what a wise man is E. Macron.
Jens Danbolt his program is a vision with zero numbers. This is scary.
he would never ever in hell use a word such as bullshit on a french media especially while talking about his opponents. do not believe the hype. he's a fraud
Hahaha! You made me lough! He's litteraly the best "langue de bois" speaker I have seen in a while!
JLM2017 !!!
I so respect him, when he speaks in English, I absolutely can understand every single word and what message he wants to say to us.
I prefer to choose him rather than an English native speaker.
Even his speech also very easy to understand..
Might be the best French politician in decades...
I hate this fucker. Traitor of Europeans.
@@matthew5556 why?
Felix90 no
@@DanielSantos-lx9kk saying that hes probably right, best of a fuckin horrendous bunch
No. Just no.
Wow he didn't even get pissed when he pushed him on the "rumours." I've always had a strong dislike of Macron, largely I guess because of how the British media portrays him, but he handles himself very well. He's clearly very competent. Maybe that makes him even more of a threat.
He is completely correct that a French guy trying to tell the British what to do would be inefficient. haha
I like this guy
Vive Macron! Vive le France! Much love and admiration from Greece, we will always be the loyal follower of France, our one and true ally among all the world powers!
Macron is making you paying for Germany... I understand a bit better how Greece ended up in such a mess..
*La France
No, not vive Macron. 👎
He is nit good
His French accent is so hot 😍
Congratulations to Mr Macron on his success! This will be the start of a wonderful relationship.
Nice bloke level headed pro EU. Gets my vote. I hope Grande Bretagne will become an overseas Department of Republique Francais.
he is such well spoken and sharp individual! good to see such people coming into power.
Hey Macron erm I know it’s a long shot but... Fancy becoming leader of the UK too?
This guy will truly take Europe places, he is the exact leader the free world needs at the moment.
He's awesome love him
I like this guy and I think he is clever. He can deliver what he promises!
laule
bruhhh
Mr. Macron speaks English eloquently, he gets his points across to the listeners, he's using body language very powerfully, he voice tones are much more defined than our Orange Orangutan and his golden boy.
"I'm humble" - Emmanuel Macron
Quick Fix Lunatic besides hamon and melanchon they're all corrupt tbh
Arnaud !?
Idek just make josh dun world dictator
Oliver Oconnor honestly why not i wouldnt be complaining tbh
Fark he is dumb more than anything else.
Love his accent... ah ah
The fact the he's married to a woman 24 years older it's showing that his heart is in the right place. He's not shallow as more men will be enticed to marry someone 24 years younger. I wish him well as a French president and set as an example to all leaders around the world.
It just shows that is a gay with an alibi...😂
I love Macron. I don't agree with him on everything but he supply's a very nuanced solution that was needed very badly.
For years it was far-left vs far-right and now here's a guy that wants to change the bad stuff and keep the good stuff. without trowing a wrench into the gears.
What do you agree or disagree with ? In order to agree with his ideas, you must understand his ideas, he doesn't express any constitent ideas. Just try to mention one.
Their trains are better.
Privatisation fanboys, explain why we can't have a similar system here?
They also have stagnant growth. Why can't we have that system here? Because that would involve a lot of cash to nationalise + give a ton of strength to the Unions. Neither are good for the people of this country.
I was thinking that as well the train is very quite not like Noddy's railway in the UK where you pay through the nose and can't even get a seat.
Your growth is quite fragile. Oh, and Germany has very strong unions who are able to negotiate higher wages.
The British private rail system is utter shit, admit it. Desastrous worker conditions, horrible service, horrible safety, preposterous prices. You lost on that one.
our trains and dams are being privatized because of EU rules. They were great without the EU, but they've been going downhill for years now. The rails were originally owned by the national train company. Now in order to allow free competition, they had to relinquish ownership, and now pay to use the rails they built with taxpayer money, it's insane.
germany benefits from the euro's current level, boosting its export while killing competition from the south. I wouldn't be optimistic about german unions, as there is a lot of poverty in germany, many low wage jobs, and the demographic situation shows that it's just very hard to raise a family there
It’s so cute when he speaks English. I love it!
At last a smart man leading a country! Vive le France!
la France* :)
his lisp is adorable and his accent
I am so happy that he won. Finally there's a strong person in charge of France.
Macron is so much smarter than his interviewer who represents the black/white approach of too many reporters.
is presenting things in terms of populist / progressist approach smart? I mean what is the consitency of this guy ?
To suggest a general election in the UK could bring about a reversal of Brexit is nonsensical. Neither Conservatives or Labour can possibly campaign on that ticket now.
they can. Enough scare-mongering with our biased media, I think it will happen !!
Joyce Gibbs Labour would be completely wiped out if they ran on that ticket. Tories would lose a lot of seats if they did it and it would cause major problems within their party. From a party point of view it's just not feasible. Either way UKIP would benefit a lot and we would probably get a hung parliament.
***** Why would I support the Lib Dems? They are anti-democratic.
vodkatom whiskey You are deluded. Corbyn is the leader and doesn't really like the EU. It's already Labour policy to exit the EU without offering another referendum. Macron loves the EU and doesn't really want to reform it other than maybe deeper integration.
Maybe in 2022 Labour could run on an abandon Brexit manifesto pledge. But the problem of huge numbers of traditionally Labour voters wanting to leave the EU, if the Labour party did run on that ticket they would never win.
Article 50 is reversible.
Glad he won and I hope he delivers for the sake of Europe and French people. Fascists have absolutely no space in the 21st century.
The most autoritarien regime France have experienced for 70 years. Yeah glad he won...
He speaks English better than many in the US...
Wow..he speaks english fluenty..impressive for a frenchman..
You arrived when Europe most needed you!!! I am positively impressed about your ideas and vision. Thank you and good luck, Mr President!
Great.
@@phoenixbird7574 AHAH
What a great English speaker!
are all french people philosophers... so well spoken... im in love lol
india he did have his bachelor in philosophy:)
i am not surprised... lovely 😍😍
india 😂😂😂😂they can't even speak, or write propper French , 😨😨and
Hello, 🙆French, is the only population in the world, who don' t even speak or comprehend a basic English, ,. that,s why these are still in France they have no acces of 99,5% of international, knowledge or info..
and when they travel, they go in ex french colonies....
.
yukil dom - You're comment about the French is so wrong it hurts my eyes.
Most of the French live in France (not a surprise), they have diverse levels of English (non to bilingual like everywhere). They do travel a lot all around the world (they have many holidays for that), their former colonies are not their favorite destinations... They travel mainly to other European countries because the EU makes it very easy, but you can find a lot of French people in Canada, the USA, and others in Asia, North Africa, South America, Australia, New Zealand,... They have access to a gigantic amount of the world knowledge and info like every other developed countries.
(India is obviously not a troll...)
Ben en tout cas tes commentaires me font toujours aussi mal aux yeux, pas que le sens mais la mise en forme aussi, la ponctuation et l'orthographe. J'aime bien lire mais là nan. Les synthèses c'est pas mal aussi.
Bonne soirée 🐝🍯 ^^
This man is a whole package! I would agree to his vehement actions to Trump during his meeting with him! This man is huge!
OMG! I love his accent! So cute !
the accent is fake. He speaks perfect english with no accent
There’s a suave when he speaks ❤️
4:01 didn't know channel 4 news was so VEVO.
this is how true intelligent leaders speak . they discuss the details of all things rather than just going to standard talking points as trump does . everything that trump doesn't like is a disaster ,a mess rather than looking at the pro and cons of things. i hope macron succeeds ( i like melenchon more than him)
4:00 never heard Trump say bullshit
Well, If you compare to Trump, every philosophical essay I made deserves immediately a fucking Nobel Prize. (edit : yes, Melenchon is the most pragmatic and the most coherant one)
Completely agree. I did vote for Melenchon on the first round then Macron for the second. I hope he doesn't have a double agenda. For sure he's clever than Sarkozy and Holland combined.
Also he don't have small hands... ahahaha
I'd vote for him. He has faults but he is moderate and reasonable and that is exactly what recent politics needs.
Приятно наблюдать такое непосредственное общение без переводчика.
Seriously jealous of your new president. Makes the impression of a leader who will be remembered.
Remembered as the president who literally destroyed France.
Say what you want about the man, but at least he's half decent in english. #TheYesNeedTheNoToWinAgainstTheNo never forget.
He Speak English
What about Marine LOL
He speaks fluent English extremely well and what languages can our British PM’s speak?!?!
Um, he Boris can speak French
There are Brtish politicians who can speak a foreign language. I wish there were more. But some examples include Boris Johnson, Tony Blair, Nick Clegg, and Jeremy Hunt.
A prime example of why he failed to grasp why Britain voted out in the first place
This guy speaks better English than me! And I was born in an English speaking country lol
Might be because you use English naturally in social settings, whereas he might have had to focus on more formal English as a politician.
One of the first politicians i've seen stick to his words, in regards to Brexit. He has been tough on the British government. Good.
Perhaps I should have learned more about English reporter, it seemed he was attacking him with doubtfulness. The French guy handled it well.
I'm more at ease now since I know my president pronounces 'the" as I do.
"Ze"
love it that he also speaks english!!
I can really see Thresea May holding her own against them like a of Macron and Merkel ( that was sarcasm by the way) the UK is going to come out of negotiations a lot more worse of in many more ways than one. As a younger citizen of Britain the future looks very bleak. Hope Boris keeps his mouth shut and does not how us up to much. I know unlikely to happen.
Thanks for this wonderful program.
Macron mentioned the orchestrators of Brexit who ran away. I think he means Farage, Cameron, Gove, Johnson et al. He has a far better grasp of English than Trump and less soundbites than May.
4:00 - "That's pure bullshit", well said Monsieur le Président.
Trump is 24 yrs older than Melania. Why is Macron's age difference with his wife such a hotbed issue? It's totally irrelevant
The president of France speaks better English then Harry kane 💀
amazing how he speak English fluently !
04:01 That's pure poudre de perlimpinpin
Bull***
i really like this guy he is pro europe and stand what already constructed not trying to do something different in term 'change'...make blablabla great again .... that i believe those vision would lead in many internal problem
Haha yeah this aged well.
his English is very good, a complex interview forum is difficult in a foreign language
I disagree with his politics but I think how he's straight to the point should be an example to all politicians
A great leader, France indefinitely picked the right One to lead their country into the future. Vive La République 🇫🇷 Vive l'UE 🇪🇺
Vive l'Auld Alliance, dear Scottish Brother. From a French guy who knows everything about your Great chapters in French history. Thank you.
At last a French President who can speak decent English... And with a modern vision at that.
i like him and hope he does well
you would have got more solid answers if the interview was conducted in french, could have just subititled it to english.
Macron my man !
Macron: "Make Our Planet Great Again".
He sounds like French Narrator from SpongeBob.
WE ARE ALL EXCITED TO SEE THIS!
Well done France , great choice
elushka29 ...ISSOU 😂
elushka29 lol just by looking at this interview you've decided that he will be great? Early days like every politician he has his masters to please
He has already betrayed us twice
Vrai mais JLM aussi a menti plus d'une fois.
France has good sheeps.
Why is Le Pen more popular on UA-cam than macron but behind in the polls?
Unemployed Brits and Muricans spend a lot of time on youtube.. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Because it's been a very long time since she is in politics and even longer for her politic party the National Front. Macron started his party En Marche only a year ago so it's very new, we are used to 50 to 200 years old parties. As people say he's a meteor in politics, I do believe it for many reasons.
SoLfire Gaming Haha I guess it's kind of true. That makes me think, if every French person had understood both programs equally. How many would still choose Lepen ? To my opinion less than 5%. When you understand the importance of the EU you can't agree with her at all, just a few people are ready to abandon all the things this union give us and refuse the globalization.
I know exactly what i'm talking about, but actions are harder to achieve.
wow his English is incredible i'm American and he's more eloquent than Trump!
we need to improve shengan. so you want to destroy shengan. no I want to improve shengan. ok so you want to suspend shengan. @10:50
First try to write it correctly
Succinct, powerful, clear and well-spoken. Emmanuel Macron is a wonderful speaker, and is making one hell of a statement in French politics. I would love it if he won, but even if he doesn't, he has started something. I don't think I've heard a British politician speak this honestly and eloquently - in a second language!!! - for a long, long time. Obviously, he faces problems of inexperience, and maybe he's not going to be as good an administrator as he is a speaker. But I say to give him a chance; he might turn out to be the best thing that's happened to France in years. And if he fails... well, five years will roll around in no time.
first question:
>People said to us "We like the guy but we don't know what he stands for. We don't know what he's gonna do when he gets in power". What do you stand for?
Macron: First, I want to produce innovation in France. That's the very first perspective. We are now in a new perspective, a new economy, an economy of competitiveness, innovation, super talents, so we have to reform the country in order to succeed in such environment, so what I will do first is reform our labour market, reform our training system, and reform our education system. okay?
----
What does that even mean!?? He didn't answer the question, he just repeated talking points he's been told, there was no substance in that answer.
This Guy is like that at every interviews he gets, but people keep covering him. He had more media coverage in 2016 than Melenchon, Hamon and Fillion combined, but he only announced his candidacy in November. Macron is a candidate propped up by the mainstream media, a French Rubio.
He just said it. He wants to make France more competitive.
So how do you think he is going do it ?
People = Lower salaries, lower social protection, longer work hours, lower health coverage, lower pensions.
Corporations = Lower social charges, higher profits, maximum deregulations, lower taxes, larger freedom to fire staff, subsidies.
And all this will not create jobs because the profit is to be distributed to the shareholders for more relocations to cheaper places until everything is produced at the lower cost possible even if it has to come across the globe.
Don't get your hopes up. He's just another puppet catering to the oligarchy, along the likes of Obama www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-25/meet-real-emmanuel-macron-consummate-banker-puppet-bizarre-elitist-creation
Chlliard 2000: This guy a fucking and you make no time with your 5 years will roll around in no time you nut bar. MIND YOUR OWN COUNTRY.
Britain lost the "war" on Germany and France. So better stay with us and create a new world balance
Action is the only answer to make you confident. So many things to do in Europe to preserve an efficient union.
Seems like France got a nice president. Good job French people and congratulations from Russia! We all hope for the best!
fuck, I love this guy.
He speaks English very well, very clear and detail
Haha he said "Bullshit."
