Daniel Hannan on EU anti-discrimination laws

[tothemax01]

Nice one, Hannan.

[Regenmacher175]

everyone is equal. this guy just can't get over the fact that he's the outsider on this issue.

[tothemax01]

@Regenmacher175 What proof do you have of this? To look at vastly different individuals and then claim that they are equal is tantamount to insanity.

[Regenmacher175]

@tothemax01 if i were to say u have no rights because i don't like ur nose u would feel that u were being treated unjustly, no? everyone is equal in rights just look at the UDHR and the international Bill of Rights if u don't believe me.

[tothemax01]

@Regenmacher175 Well equal rights is different to being equal.

[battlestroke7]

How fucking dumb must white people be to have to argue this point in their own country ? No other race faces this question in their countries. Whites deserve what they get ! IDIOTS.

[LightsEShadows]

yeah this law was so stupid...... for examples if i need a specify kind of worker, do i have to extend invitation to every peoples of every ages... for example thing for a mining activity. Should I hire aged woman ??

Or if need image, for example a woman dressing company. Should i hire man to dress female clothes ? Hannan specify more. The ambigous its a character of EU beginning from Lisbon Treaty wich its very disturbing.

[courtesyZone]

Carswell & Hannan's book "The Plan" is very straightforward, Congress should be reading this, especially in light of current health care debate. They explain how a deep-pockets national-payer system drives up general cost of services because the user has no reason NOT to run to the doctor's office every time he has the sniffles when the taxpayer is footing the bill. It's as if they were all shopping with your stolen credit card.

[sonever1]

So, Hannan seems bright and reasonable, and potentially very persuasive to an attentive electorate.I hope he's BNP. Is he?

[theredraven]

No, Tory.

[gregorioallegri]

As the BNP are socialists and Mr. Hannan would fall foul of their immigration policies I doubt it, he's far too intelligent.

[sonever1]

In what ways does the BNP favor any sort of coercive socialism?

And while the BNP favors foreign guests/tourism and cultural exchange, why would Hannan favor immigration/citizenship for foreigners to Britain?

Better to uphold the ethnic and cultural identity of one's country, while maintaining friendship with others, don't you think?

[gregorioallegri]

You obviously haven't seen the video on this channel in which Mr. Hannan sets out his view on the BNP. And Mr. Hannan would fall foul of the BNP's immigration policies, being Peruvian and all.

[NSResponder]

As it happens, Hannan's done a lovely job of shredding the BNP. I had assumed that they were garden-variety Nazis, but it turns out that the BNP is actually a far-left party with racism added in.

[mickyh234]

It seems that even those who make accurate statements must show little understanding of history. The Nazi party was the national socialist german workers party! Free Market capitalism and right wing liberalism is incompatible with fascism, there are no fascists who are conservatives also. And perhaps you should also recognise that someone can be economically far left as well as politically far-right (which is completely separate from conservatism).

[v19d]

@NSResponder Nope its far right in its enitre doctrine. Even its a far right lunatic party according to US standards. If they were to take power in Britain it would pose a greater threat to America and the world then terrorists of the middle east. It would even fund terrorists in India. It even says it supporters terrorists that want a strict Hindu nation in India.

[NSResponder]

The BNP might wish for a spokesman as intelligent and articulate as Mr. Hannan, but since the BNP are a pack of racist idiots, they never will.

[courtesyZone]

As well as being an intelligent argument, this is stated so eloquently. It's too bad that few American politicians can speak so well.

[gbrady3434]

Mr Hannan is very impressive. I hope we see a lot more of him.

[billiejones25]

Daniel Hannan Next British Prime minster he will save Britian from the EU

[SaraCHA88]

We need more politicians like Hannan here in the USA.

[TejasLibertarian]

Mr. Hannan,

Please establish residency in Texas so that we may vote for you and get rid of at least one economic ignoramus in office.

[mickyh234]

He who robs peter to pay paul can always count on the vote of paul - Bernard Shaw

[TrustyShellback]

Daniel Hannan is extremely well-spoken. He explains any concept in terms that are easy to understand. When he simplifies the complex, everything seems clear.

No Orwellian DOUBLESPEAK is spoken when Daniel Hannan is the speaker! Daniel Hannan is a hero.

[goodbyegoodhair]

The EU is a joke. Can they make it any more obvious that they're ignoring the will of the people?

[ElenaHaskins]

Indeed.

Anti-discrimination laws are absurd and expensive.

[Elcristoph]

totaly agree, thumbs up

[Kevinasp]

What do you define as "Freedom"? Some people called the National Minimum Wage Fascism when it was implemented 10 years ago and said it hindered Freedom. Yes, for those who were paying it, but where's the freedom for someone whose working 40 hours a week for £2 an hour? No doubt they will have called abolishing the slave trade an hindrance to freedom, but where was the freedom for slaves? The Thatcher government saw Freedom in a business sense, but it was a bossy government in many other ways..

[Henchberg]

This guy can sure make a good speech.

[Kevinasp]

Hannan wants the UK to get rid of the NHS. If that becomes Tory policy at the next General Election the opposing parties will exploit it and the Tories will crash to a fourth successive election drubbing...

[Xixxen]

We long for such clarity and vision here in the United States. It would be criminal not to elect this man Prime Minister.

[58robbo]

well said! the way things are going these days, it'll will soon be illegal to breathe, we will then rely on the mood of the judiciary to be free!

[IdolHans]

Americans are applauding this brave reasoned man and it gives us hope that we may be able to ditch the chains that our version of the Labor party (the democrats) have imposed on us. Daniel is the real deal!

[bigboss686]

these beacons of truth in times like this are quite inspiring, I hope all of you across the pond will support this man in as impassioned a way as possible.

[atheling]

Bravo! The mind this man has!

[mickyh234]

They all used to be like that, 50 years ago. Margaret Thatcher, Enoch Powell, Churchill. All highly intelligent people with experience, real knowledge and competence. It's down hill all the way from now on.

[MooseOfReason]

I never hear members of Congress applaud after a speech.

[musclegrab]

Mr Hannan, you really have a way of succinctly cutting to the heart and truth of the issue at hand. Bravo

[kswan47252]

after you fix the UK, can you come to the US?

[moddy82]

Wow, the first EU representative I can really think deserves his position! I never thought I'd see a politician stand up for common sense, but hey, here we are.

[quaffer22]

WOW !!!

Mr. Hannan is surely going against the grain on that issue.

And about damned time someone did!

[richardcadbury]

The term "anti-discrimination" is a misnomer.

The racist, for example, demonstrates a FAILURE to discriminate, between employability, between skills, between character, between the merits of an individual, and can only see a skin colour.

We need MORE and FINER discrimination.

Using the word "discrimination" as some kind of slur is a butchering of the English language.

I hope you can all discriminate between a good and bad use of the term.

[Hkepfer]

Entirely well said.

It would be nice to put a perimeter around the English language if only for a bit; how else to access all the cuts, bleeding and torture from the butchering?

The Los Angeles Times in particular is brutal with English language.

Thank you,

HKepfer

[RakeRocter]

freaking brilliant!

[Remmepark]

Excellent point! Go Daniel!

[RandyHaddock]

Man, how I wish I was as eloquent as this man.

[Robeight]

Just look at how the anti-terror laws in the UK are used to snoop on litter bugs, or hold hecklers at labour party conferences. So the argument of "It won't be used that way" is provably wrong.

[NicosMind]

I wonder how many extra subscribers hes got since hes told Gordon Dung off? Ive never heard of him til then.

Thumb me up if youre new.

[jamie00866]
