@Mr Olsen Sir. Your comment seems to be knee jerk sarcasm based solely on emotion rather than any evidence, explanation or logic. Hannan has been a centrist pro-democracy, anti-collectivist and anti-plutocratic all his adult life, and made quite clear his disapproval of Putin's methods to gaining omnipotency. He has even used the Russian government fake parliament, fake representation and dictatorial model as as an analogy for the evils of the EU Commission! So, please do explain, of what exactly are you accusing him?

Peter Bradley. From what I read and hear, plus what I view on KZread, Mr. Farage is unlikely to lose many points to any of those present in Strausberg, since their arguments cluster toward repetitive, and remain unconvincing. Besides, it clearly is difficult for them to dredge up the testosterone needed for another showdown with Mr. Farage, after having been outdrawn and outshot so consistently. Glazed grins just don't make up for intellectual inertia. It is a little surprising, though, that Mrs. Merkel seems unable to see why the remaining nation-states of Europe are somehow underimpressed with the charm of Germany's drive to bully the rest of Europe into speaking German. Can't think why. Look how trustworthy Volkswagen has turned out to be. Ta.

Hannan’s comments are a heinous affront to Gaia and Communism as well as being intolerant hate speech. For The People™ nothing is more important than stringent Party orthodoxy. They must be taught to denounce all class enemies as well as their parents, friends, educators and other assorted reactionary dogs for crimes committed against the state. Furthermore, a consensus has been formed; the science has been settled, the debate is over. Deniers must be burned at the stake for heresy, apostasy, and treason to the scientific consensus.

What sets this man apart from most other politicians is that he is a deep thinker, worth hearing whichever part of the political spectrum you occupy. Where most politicians are superficial, dishonest careerists with nothing to offer but fear-mongering and obfuscation, he possesses the power to ignite his audiences with a new passion for politics and, most importantly, with hope. He can inspire us with a will to retake control of our own destiny, the only sure foundation upon which to build a brighter future. We must never allow our democratic rights and political engagement to be whittled away by the faceless Brussels bureaucrats.

His major political project (Brexit) has weakened UK more than any other policy the last 200 years. Which is why a big and increasingly bigger majority of the UK population considers Brexit a mistake. The talent of Hannan is purely oratory, but sadly a talent strong enough to make ludicrous propositions sound like the only sensible course of action. The political wisdom of nations are generally inversely proportional to the number of "Daniel Hannan analysts" in action.

Wonderful speech, both in content and delivery. This quote in particular is so pithy i'll have to write it down: "When you take the demos out of democracy, you're left only with the cratos - with the power of a system that must compel by law, what it dare not ask in the name of civic patriotism". A federalist EU is anti-Europe. The deliberate, manipulative attempts by many politicians to conflate the EU and Europe in the public mind should be called out on every occasion. If the EU is to exist, it should be minimalist, and be contained in that state by strong constitutional laws.

Sovereignty cannot by the definition of sovereignty be shared. To lose, or give away sovereignty is to abolish ones nation. To accept laws imposed by a foreign power is to accept the abolition of ones nation. To remove borders, eventually also removing them from maps as national demarcation lines, replaced by outlines of administrative areas, is to accept the abolition of ones country. We want it back, so that we can cooperate in areas of mutual benefit, but be free to make our own treaties, our own trading arrangements, our own laws instead of ,as currently approximately 2/3 of our laws emanating from Russell's with EU law taking supremacy over the laws we have made ourselves. Tied as we are to the EU, we are not free to adopt good ideas from other countries, unless 27 other EU members agree. That is not progress, except towards the dreary harmful one size fits all of the Orwellian super state. To hell with it. No one needs it.

Patriotism has to do with, keeping the country in good heart, the community Governed with justice and mercy, These will enlist loyalty and courage often. And sacrifice sometimes even martyrdom, Bear these eventualities in mind also, they will concern you for ever, But at this moment bear in mind these dead. Bear in mind these dead, I can find no plainer words, I dare not risk using that loaded word, Remember........

Somebody get this man a seat in the House of Commons and elect him to high office... "Prime Minister " material.

Dodge Mustang The problem lies with our politicians spending the money, not with other countries. What started 70 years ago as loans to help rebuild, turned into a carrot and stick of control. This country is ignorant of European & Asian cultures, and we have plenty of concerns in this hemisphere to focus on.

The second you guys leave your global presence in EU, the russians will dominate the EU oil market. Chinese will get all good trade deals in EU. The great united states will look at it's former glory. The US depend on europe. Slava Rossya!

LaSiMuSi You are probably right based on the mindset of US policy makers over the past 50 years. I'm simply saying let the market decide who sells where. I'm glad to see the old communist economies of China and the former Soviet Union modify to market driven economies and for nearly 2 billion new customers to open up to the EU and the rest of the world. I simply want the US to get out of the way and let the best man win. We need to stop spending money to defend a part of the world that doesn't want us there to begin with.

We need this guy as our PM, Alex P below said it all.

And this was five years before the Brexit referendum.......... I thought he sounded just a tad like Sir Humphry at the end....but excellent !!!! Les Griffiths Australia

A man of character, integrity and substance. Where have they all gone? We are surrounded with career politicians. People who change their views any way the wind blows in order to keep power! Years ago children were taught about integrity at school shame this virtue has no place in the educational system today.

He is s very bright man. Makes the Westminster lot, look wet behind the ears. Imagine what he and Farage could do if they teamed up together.

He rightfully notes that the European technological prosperity was because of rivaling states and becoming a union is making this go slower. But technological innovation is done mainly by going to war against each other. That would mean that as long as we have peace in Europe, we will always be slower in our progression.

@AurynThePaladin hee hee! Damn he's articulate and eloquent. Brilliant comment!

I don't suppose its occurred to Hannan that in the first half of the 20th century that Europe spent most of the time tearing each other to bits which is why Germany and France got together after the 2nd such bout and decided to stop that happening ever again thus the European Union was born. As for Asia, I guess Hannan has never heard of ASEAN founded in 1967 which brings together now 10 countries of SE East Asia. Also perhaps he would like to explain China which is a Communist country, they seem to be doing rather well trade wise apparently according to Hannan that isn't supposed to happen.

@@wlboyd I think you will find that China started doing better as you put it when the lunatic Mao died and the pragmatist Deng Xiaoping took over.

Daniel Hannan NEEDS a seat in the Westminster Parliament so he can replace Boris as PM when the time comes.

Spot on !!
