  • This idiot does not know what he's talking about. He's a vile man and a liar. The NHS in the UK is amazing and I thank my lucky stars I was not born in America with its extreme widespread poverty and its ridicules extreme rich. The UK looks after its people; The USA throws more of its own people in prison than anywhere else in the world into its slave labor prisons. The US state schools are often poor, If America adopted a more socialist approach like the UK poverty and injustice would shrink.

  • @WARTORIOUS How many times have you been to the states? I agree with you on one point that you made. The U.S. puts way to many non violent offenders in jail. (ie: drug war) I live way bellow the poverty line and I don't go without food in my belly or a roof over my head. I know its strange but the U.S. does have social programs and my neighbors look out for one another. (don't believe everything you see on T.V.) This country is far from perfect but I think you have a skewed vision of it.

  • This guy is so fucking smart and i even get it.. please run for PM and soon.

  • even hannity's trying to get this clown to stfu for the last 60 seconds so we can hear some important announcements from Gold Line ;P

  • Look, He warned us against Government run healthcare. He has seen how more and more government programs and controls have hurt the UK. He has warned us many many times. Too bad everyone was friggin hy-mo-Tized. Ise been HYP-MO -Tised when he warned us the first time. Yet, the warnings fell on deaf ears with Rinos (Olympia Snow, who could have ended this helathcare with her vote) and with DemoRATS who sold us down the river! Oh well, maybe Americans are awake now!

  • @starVol Daniel Hannan isn’t a proper political figure, he’s a MEP and that means they are failed national political party member, MEPs are also bought off like the American politicians - I might be a Tory supporter but I believe in keeping our NHS, it’s our right as is the right to vote, access to an education & access to a state pension. Daniel Hannan is on the EU gravy train, with the other slimy scum of Europe's MEP - He isn't a True Tory but a republican

  • Great interview; great views by Hannon. He's got common sense; which isn't all that common these days. Thank you for editing out Hannity's noise.

  • "Peru is characterised by extreme inequalities in income distribution, with 20% of the population controlling over 54% of national income. It is estimated that around 50% of Peruvians live in poverty, and 20% in extreme poverty. "

    I knew he took his template from the home of his birth (Peru.) Go back!

  • America DOES NOT have Capitalism - it has Corporatism. Govts and Corporations are in bed with each other to secure their own futures against the Free Market where most would fail immediately, i.e. Banks. Corporatism is causing all the problems & Capitalism is getting the blame. 'Capital' comes from Savings not Debt. Insurance Company domination of Healthcare is the problem in USA. Why cant any individual pay their tax straight into their local hospital, or even schools & then call the shots?

  • For any Americans watching, you might want to know that the media in Britain went crazy at this guy for saying what he did. Even his own party leader (and probably the next Prime Minister) has chastised him for words which amoungst most Brits would be considered treasonist.

    I have a funny feeling he will lose his seat at the next election.

  • Duh!

  • Why do the Americans through around this word Socialist. Most British people do not even know what this word means. What we have is a working nationalised health system. Much like the way you Americans nationalise your school or post system. If you want you can still use private heath facilities. What the NHS means is that NO ONE goes with out heath care our country. Something which sadly is not the case in the land of the Free. The NHS is one the most amazing institutions in the world

  • Comment removed

  • Small government, means BIG corporations. Which means private companies that have no responsibility for their actions can do just about ANYTHING they want. The US media is run by corporations, and the private healthcare is a BIG BIG business. They are paying this fella to say this sh1t because the last thing they want is a national health service.

  • LOL, I like the way he says socialist post war conspiracy... HAHA. Slipped up there. Why do Fox News have Daniel Hannon slagging off the NHS on American tv?? Why pick him over EVERYone else? He's just an ordinary MP. Most other British mps support the NHS. otherwise they wouldn't be what they are becoz EVERYONE wants the NHS otherwise they don't get in government. Socialized medicine is a good thing. The papers and govt don't want it because of their agenda. Whereas the ppl want it.

  • I agree. Even though the NHS and Britain isn't perfect, nothing is. At least I know in a serious accident or in a life threatening situation I can be taken to hospital straight away without worrying about my health because I know its covered.

  • Too bad this interview was done by Hannity, takes away the seriousness of the message.

  • I disagree. His points are extremely valid and we would not have seen it on any of the other networks because they are for the healthcare reform. I have friends who came to America to get AWAY from socialized healthcare, so regardless of what show it is on, it is really lvalid. Thanks for taking my comment.

  • alvastarr67, if you don't want socialized healthcare then you just go private. There are insurance companies in the Britain and other places for that. But the NHS is doing fine. Watch the Michael Moore documentary SICKO. It's a one sided view, but it's just as one sided as what this British mp is saying. Hes on your tv because he's payed to say this sh1t. He's unpopular in the UK because of it. Why would he be unpopular if socialized medicine was bad? Think about it.

  • Yes of course. You are absolutely right. You do realize that even if our government wants to us to take socialized medicine, that they are not going to admit it? Unfortunately, honesty is not revered in our country the way it used to be. hope you do not have any elderly people that you love with chronic illnesses. I have many. Thank you again.

  • thats funny because its not mandatory... you can still opt for private health care if you want

  • Exactly - that seems to have been totally forgotten!

  • When I saw you on the Glenn Beck Show and Hannity, I was WOWED by you and your directness!!! I admire your courage and the world would be a better place if others were as honest and frank as you are. TMost politicians on this side of the pond, think we are stupid and constantly spew blatant lies and most of the media is in bed with them (FOX News excluded). Thank you!

    P.S. Would you ever consider coming here? I live in California and feel like I'm getting reamed from every side.

  • Thank you so much sir-the liberals keep spending our money and we do not want them to. In my state, both senators are liberal and they will not return my email. I feel so islolated.

    We have got to spend less money and we have to less businesses recover. If the government would have send all Americans $5000 each it would have been better than giveing it to banks and special interests.

    If every American had $5000 we would we would spend, save and invest. It is our money and I wanted that.

  • Isn't amazing how fucking dumb liberals are? This man makes so much sense..Ron Paul warned stupid libbs about this..Even some moderate conservatives warned...But they had to vote for the stuttering bullshitter telephone pole stapling retard . Obama supporters should have their voter registration suspeneded for 20 years..seriouslly. NormalUSA. org proves how stupid democrats are.

  • Sounds exactly like Ron Paul wake up America we had someone like this to vote for.

  • Where has this guy been all our lives?

  • Google search Fix Housing First. We must have lower mortgage rates now !

  • You go well beyond polite references to real freedom and individualism. You smash through the responsible elitists form of Govt mindset that appears to this outsider to be most disturbing, and how primitively suggestive to the point of superstition so many in the UK, Europe and other so called progressive countries are to whatever the news media and their dominating forms of government tells them.

    You have a lot of guts to do what you do in this environment!

    Best wishes,

  • I long for the day someone in the public domain coins the phrase factually correct you Sir may be that someone!

    part 2

  • After watching your videos and listening to you on the Glenn Beck program, I must say BRAVO Sir.

    What I know of you I admire, it appears from my prospective you are not afraid to free yourself from what in my opinion is the self enslavement of political correctness.

    I have always found the term political correctness deeply troubling, since when it comes to politics the very last thing that is ever done is the correct thing, and the very last thing ever said is the truth.

    part 1

  • Hey Marxist Obama - you listening ???

    Tax & Spend & Tax some more ???? Everyone pays - except Geithner, Rangel, Daschle & Dodd !!! Stinkin thieves !!!

  • Wow, wonder what all the OweBama zombies would think of this? Right wing kooks in the UK? HA! Too bad it wasn't Simon Cowell saying this, maybe it would ACTUALLY get through to them. Scary stuff. Too bad this guy couldn't be our president.

    Thank you sir, may we have another.

    Right on!

  • I LOVE this fucking guy, heard some of his speech on Hannity's radio show
