Is Britain Broken? | Daniel Hannan

- We were delighted to have Lord Daniel Hannan to discuss the problems facing Britain and how it can return to a sense of balance.
In the Anglosphere, the death of Queen Elizabeth II signaled the closure of an epoch and promoted deep introspection. This was not helped by the fact that in Britain itself the country had three prime ministers in a little over six weeks in 2022, crippling its international credibility and ability to exert leadership. Meanwhile, Britain is mired in nation-wide strikes and an energy crisis.
Why is the Tory government in disarray? What’s wrong with the Labor Opposition? Despite leaving the EU can Britain be a leader in the region? And can Britain be taken seriously as a reliable security partner in the Indo-Pacific region?
Lord Daniel Hannan is a leading British writer and journalist. He is a weekly columnist with the UK Sunday Telegraph and author of several prominent books, including The New Road to Serfdom: A Warning to America and Inventing Freedom: How the English-Speaking Peoples Made the Modern World. In 2018, Dan delivered the annual CIS John Bonython lecture on the perils of identity politics.

Is Britain Broken? Yes. And as a Brit, I do not appreciate the installation of the latest WEF crony as PM. Britain is in an existential political and cultural crisis, hopefully we won't add economic to that list.
Our economy is messed up and due to Brexit we have lost hundreds of billions in investment, plus losing 4-5% of GDP permanently, endless billions in lost tax revenue etc etc and I read a report saying that if things continue as they are we will have a per capita GDP figure the same as Poland in just over 10 years. Hannan and his obssessive cult have f***ed us up!
At certain point "..to join the Transatlantic Trade [etc.]". Independence at stake, a façade at the best.
I *love* this man!
Then John you must love a man who regularly uses false data, false information and on the video here begins with a provable falsehood. Mr Hannon is a susbscriber to a 20th century economic model that has been shown to fail...except as a generator of social division, economic berakdown and the growth of wage and asset inequality.
Are you touched?
This man is a moron of spectacular proportions.😊
All I want to do at this point is leave england 😢 I’m ashamed of my country
tks for the broadcast
4:06 - Daniel Hannan starts
Time to switch off then...unless you like a man who opens up with a lie then moves on with the pure hogwash.
We really need to get our politicians talking about implementing #CANZUK.
The government knew we all voted leave to stop immigration! Are governments just made it worse to really show the public how much contempt they have for us.
Britain is broken and Hannan helped to do it.
Can't stand on your own two feet?
"Since the people of Britain voted for Brexit"? I don't think so. Of the Electorate at the time, 17.4 Million voted for Brexit, 28.3 Million didn't. They had a simple majority of those who voted; they did not have the support of the vast majority of the UK electorate.
After a great introduction what a boring pointless speech totally avoiding any issues.
You just need to look at exchange rate of £ to € or $ to see UK decline
2 to 1 in 2007 and today 1.2 to 1 against $
Anyone who invested in £ lost up 40% of his money and any assets located north of M25 are unsellable for most businesses
Nonsense from beginning to end
I don’t even know where to start
@@ominousparallel3854 What exactly is nonsense? Forex exchange rates are just numbers
@@goenzoy712 this is not ‘just numbers’ you’re grossly manipulating them to fit a declinist narrative.
1) Linking any ‘decline’ to forex level borders economic illiteracy. What is the economic theory that connects the two? Because I do not know of any.
2) every exchange rate tanked against USD last year, not just $ and €. But also SEK, AUD, JPY, CNH,NZD, MXN etc… all of them. Are all the countries in decline according to that nonsensical criteria?
This was a USD liquidity crisis. It has nothing to do with the UK internal affairs or Brexit.
3) why 2007? Why not 1984? Since 1984 £ actually increased after reaching its lowest point. Which means it increased between 1984 and 2007. Why do you choose arbitrarily a period where it went down?
Currencies fluctuate all the time. So what?
@@ominousparallel3854 Well start somewhere and then we will see who is correct.
@@paulwalker797 I did, see my second post
Who funds the C I S ?
An hour long excuse why brexit was a joke.
It's not an excuse, Mr Remainer. It is fact.
Polls about EU vote are skewed. Because anti brexiters have an axe to grind and leave voters and supporters do not. We got the result we voted for.
And as DH says, the polls were for remain, right up to the referendum. But like I said. They are always skewed. People who pinned their hopes on those polls are wasting their energies.
Q: Is Britain broken?
A: Pffft. Try asking a question that’s not simply an abstract slogan designed to crowd out questions with real meaning.
Q: Is Britain more sovereign than before Brexit?
A: Yes
Q: Is Britain more prosperous than before Brexit?
A: No
Q: Does the British gov’t serve the interests of the British people better than before Brexit?
A: No
Q: Why hasn’t restoring British sovereignty increased the British people’s prosperity as promised?
A: The promise was a lie.
Q: So Brexit was a mistake?
A: No. Doing Brexit in 2016 was essential. Debating Brexit in 2024 is kabuki.
Q: Why is the Brexit versus Rejoin debate kabuki?
A: Because it is a framing designed to monopolize debate, to crowd out real questions with real answers that might result to real solutions.
Hannan speaks for an hour.
In the UK, this person is considered a mix between laughing stock and mendacious careerist gob on a stick. Nobody would attach the word "intellectual" to him. I do hope CIS didn't spend too much on airfares and hotels getting him to Australia
Well said
Rubbish
The UK is a complete joke because you guys are self hating and not proud of yourselves. You are lucky to have someone like Hannan, one of the few British patriots and true intellectuals left in that pathetic self hating island. You don't deserve him.
@@justjackman Well said garbage.
He considers himself an intellectual. He has a youtube channel that captures all his weird speeches to the House of Lords, where there are some actually very smart and experienced achievers, unlike him. Usually there are five people there in the chamber when he blathers on in his pretentious mangled syntax and no one who is listening. @@thetruth9210
