- Join our Director, Anand Menon, for a fascinating conversation with a stalwart of British politics, former Deputy Prime Minister, and current President of European Movement UK, Lord Heseltine.
He will reflect on his time in government, including his roles in the Thatcher and Major cabinets, and his significant contribution to urban regeneration.
Discussion will also focus on the current state of British politics, including Brexit, levelling up, and the future of the Conservative Party and Brexit
as ever, an inspiring speaker and unassailable arguments regarding Brexit.
Michael we all have an opinion of brexit only god knows if the referendum was right or wrong not us mere mortals.
That national opinion poll held in 2016 was corrupted by illegality. Don’t take my word for it, just look at the electoral commission and it’s findings which were just the tip of the iceberg. However because it was not binding on parliament, then it’s result could not be void…..after all why should 13 million bother not to vote for something which was not binding and affect them ?
The marginal result was declared “the will of the people” and “the greatest democratic mandate ever” by Theresa May , using a criteria denied to Scotland when they held an Independence Referendum.
This disaster has been caused by the Tory party , not God. Your argument is pathetic.
At last, someone telling the true reason for Brexit
This guy is a clown and needs to go to retire to an old peoples home. The remain campaign was far more shameful. And by the way Enoch has been vindicated and proven right, looking at the numbers of foreigners that have come to the county in the last coupe of decades. If anything he underestimated the outcome. There was nothing immoral about what he said, it would have been immoral for him not to say it when it was what his constituents wanted him to talk about. Thats what they put him there to do. We only need to look at the recent scenes of Palestinian supporters in Britain celebrating the deaths of Israelis to see what a dangerous position politicians like Heseltine have put us in . Cameron was clearly planning on encouraging the EU to bring Turkey into the EU and Farage was proven right when he predicted the Romanian and Bulgarian numbers that would come. This guy is a traitor and should be tried for treason for the damage his ilk have done.
So that the rich pigs like Heseltine and Lord Rose can line their pockets at the expense of the working class .
Was there a reference to Anands comment about attitudes softening to immigration?
EP was right as right can be and it's all coming true Michael, although you will never noticed living away from it all in your mansion.
A real honourable tory. Sadly there seems to be no more like him.
💪Tarzan was there in 1968 standing up to Enoch Powell.
Shame his power as Lord 🦾Tarzan wasn't there to influence the 🇬🇧 🗳️ 🇪🇺 2016 "morally bankrupt campaign" 🤔

He is what we call on the left a 'Good tory'.
When asked the crucial testing question at the end Heseltine had no answer. He’s utterly out of touch with us prols.
The lies about the EU began decades before the Referendum. Denigrating the EU at every possible opportunity. Blaming Europe for every problem in the country, from immigration to poverty to homelessness to lackbof investment and depreciating infrastructure. Every EU funded project in the country was unannounced, so nobody knew the good the EU did. Meanwhile in mainland Europe, every single project, from the smallest to the largest has signage explaining what, why and how much is funded by the EU. A deliberate policy by successive UK governments and their media bosses to use the EU as the whipping boy for UK government failings.
"Funded by the EU"
But uk was net contributor.
I think you mean "Funded by domestic taxpayers. But eu decided what spent on."
@@danielwebb8402. That’s not true. Studies have shown that EU “levelling up” funds have been massive.
@californiadreamin8423
Funds from.....
a) magic
b) EU countries' taxpayers. Including the UK's. Which were net contributor. So paid into "EU funds" more than got back. So was, net, all UK taxpayers money spent in UK.
... what nonsense! There's only ONE fact that people need to know about the EU - it's an organisation that seeks to install a supra-national government and against which most Europeans have voted. Only the British have respected their voters. Every other government has had their voters vote again until the 'right' result was obtained - Ireland, France, Netherlands.
@@FalkeEins Respected the voters !! You delude yourself. The 2016 national opinion poll , which was full of illegality , was not binding on parliament and the leave campaign deliberately avoided any detail because they couldn’t agree among themselves what they wanted. So why should 13 million bother voting if they knew the harm that was facing them….poorer, loss of rights, loss of freedom of movement.
So after Cameron showed a colossal yellow streak and ran away from his duty to the country , Theresa May , desperate to save the Tory party , she announced “it was the will of the people” , applying a criteria that would have led to Scottish Independence after their Referendum.
Your post simply shows your ignorance.
He’s forgotten all the lies his side told dementia
I can't remember a single truth told by the leave-campagin...
@@kimwit1307 well you are well named dim witted 500,000 unemployed , a punishment budget , a leaflet distributed to every single household in the country saying how great Europe is 🤡🤡🤡 oooooh it’s a common market not a political bloc that for starters try google maybe refresh your dim witted brain ???
…..and the Leave Campaign headed by Nigel Lawson from his Chateaux in France !!
@@californiadreamin8423 so what you lost and you problem salty still crying I can’t believe you undemocratic people
@@gordonfleming458 If you were sold a house by a realtor who told you nothing but lies about the neighbors and the condition it was in, you'd be salty too.
Please spell DEMOCRACY - then live it!
What a load of bollocks
One more .......The Far right.
The greatest leader Britain never had!
he was never a leader he was always a follower, especially when Thatcher was around.
Oh forgoodness sake stop moaning about brexit 🙄
Speaking up against bad policies and talking about Government failures are vital parts of healthy democracy. Telling people to "stop moaning" is, or can become, anti-democratic. If you understood how real debate worked you would have reminded us of all the benefits that BREXIT was responsible for? Or, perhaps, you cold have made some suggestions about how we could have made our arguments against its adoption more effective? More challenging, perhaps, you could offer some ways of making Brexit less politically, ,socially and economically damaging.
@@otleyperson.
.
Or reminding us that UK GDP growth suffered steady decline almost from the day we left the EFTA and joined the EEC .
Possibly include a debate on how a services based economy benefits from membership of a customs union or why if EU membership is so very wonderful, the majority of UK exports are sold to non EU countries.
Action : UK humiliated Germany at Versailles in 1918
Reaction: Germany went for revenge.
Action:UK had to win WO2
Reaction : Germany recovered and surpassed the UK economocally
Action: UK got jalous of Germany and its allies
Reaction : Brexit
Action : Splendid isolation for the UK. GOOD LUCK!
Isolation? The 6th biggest economy in the world, G7 member, nuclear power, more and improve trade deals than we had in the EU, free trade with the EU, and as a naturally English speaking nation we will never be isolated.
Keep smoking the whacky backy.
Germany recovered and surpassed due to billions received in loans especially from Marshall plan, et al.
I lived and worked in a traditional labour supporting area that voted for brexit. The main topic of conversation was the millions of Turks that were coming to the UK when Turkey joined the EU. All total lies, but that is the main reason alot of people voted for brexit.
July 2023 EU statement said they can not see a time when Turkey will join EU.

Its very clear what they had planned
That's a childish lie and you know it! 😂
@remoanersrknts6736 No, it's not. I worked for a distribution company that has a link to the building trade, and I live in an ex mining town that's not fully recovered from the pit closures. Whenever Brexit was talked about, the people said they would leave to stop the influx of Turkish imagrants.
The only advantage I see to Brexit is with the large number of workers who back to Eastern Europe the resulting shortage of labour has ment employers had to increace wages above minimum wage. However, that has fuelled inflation due to higher costs for employers
@@old.not.too.grumpy.
.
"Increase wages above minimum wage" HOW AWFUL! 🤣
You have just hit the nail on the head but seem blissfully unaware!
The glut of low skilled East European workers were pushing down wages and working conditions.
The Independent Newspaper Oct 9 2015
*"Two years ago Lord Rose Conservative peer said he had little sympathy with people who complained that jobs were being taken by workers from Bulgaria and Romania who were prepared to work for less money. “I’m a free-market economist; we operate in a free market,” he told Sky News. “If these people want to come here, and work the hours they are prepared to work for the wages they are prepared to work for, then so be it.”*
Lord Rose led the campaign to keep Britain in the EU .
Know your enemy!
Another intelligent man who fails to understand why people voted leave. Honestly!
An oxymoron. If they don’t understand, then they are thick as mince.
Yeah, but the thing is, this time, England's racism hurt themselves and that is just effin' fantastic.
Get a grip.
It hurt us all.
@@audreymcgready4329 Us? Us who? I'm not hurting at all. Entertained, sure. Wanting more? Absolutely.
@@audreymcgready4329 unless you're Scottish. If that's the case, I'm sorry. And I hope we can welcome you back soon. 🇧🇪🇪🇺🏴
@@kelvinpell4571 oh, Kevin . Poor deluded English soul. I've always known you people will never agree to reparations,and even if you did, you couldn't even come close to repaying for all the robbery, rape, genocide, slavery and cultural annihilation your country has inflicted. So instead, I get to enjoy watching the last remains crumble in the dust. It is poetic to watch you find out just how useless a nation you really are without the (in) voluntary help of the global majority. Bye, Kev.
Remain said the uk would lose 820,000 jobs and go into a year long recession. I voted remain due to the forecasted economic doom and feel cheated as it never happened
its been a 7 year reccession with 200% rise in food and energy which has not affected France
@@minixtvbox no it’s not been a 7 year recession. A recession is 2 periods of negative growth and the last one was Q1 & Q2 2020 during lock down. Energy prices are not Brexit related but due to the supply chain and government subsidies. France has a very good Energy Tariff Shield halving the true costs which is unique to them. Overall U.K inflation since 2017 (according to the B.O.E calculator) is 28%
A Tory with moral values
Let him drone on with his fantasy about racism then blow him apart with facts towards the end of the video, Heseltine's straw man burned.
Eat more fish, happy fish and grow a brain.
@@californiadreamin8423 Did you have your lobotomy done for free or did you go private?
Enoch Powell was right.
Agree. He foresaw what's happening today in Britain. The colonies taking over the metropoli. Kind of poetic justice isn't it.
A right tw@t
Looking forward to ours for the barbary trade@@viquiben4919
he was a true foreseer and soothsayer.
As a multi-generational Englishman with family sacrifice in service of Crown and country, I was suspicious
at the outset of the stealthy steps taken to ensure the existence of the planned federal intent of the
evolution from "market" to the present European Union, kept from the peoples of the nations until it was "too
late for them to do much about it" (from a letter by a prominent proponent of "The Project" as it was known).
I despise Heseltine for his eagerness to accuse the likes of Farage (and others no doubt) for their xommitted
determined efforts to return sovereignty to a land whose history resounded with that struggle over many
centuries. His own motives are his business as a wealthy businessman but I don't have to agree or admire
them. Perhaps Lord Halifax was convinced of his own position when he encouraged appeasement to
Hitler's Germany. This country has its share of such aberrations.
There's no fool like an old fool.
Ted Heath should have got Enoch Powell deselected has a candidate in 1970 Enoch Powell was no good he spoilt everything in 1968 Lord Hesltine
That post-Brexit Britain remains mired in immigration rows is not proof that UKIP and Brexit did not rely on and promote racism. It is proof that the half of Britain that voted Brexit was either prepared to endorse racism, or ignore it.
No to massive illegal immigration! Exactly the same message we are hearing from the French and Germans right now as 10,000 illegals arrive on Lampedusa in a matter of days..
Childish nonsense!
BREXIT was about stopping free movement of WHITE Europeans. Duh!
