Transcript:

"Here we are on the edge of a financial and social disaster and in the room today we have the four men who are supposed to be responsible. And yet we have listened to the dullest most, technocratic speeches I've ever heard.

You are all in denial. By any objective measure the euro is a failure. And who exactly is responsible, who is in charge out of all you lot? The answer is none of you because none of you have been elected; none of you have any democratic legitimacy for the roles you currently hold within this crisis.

And into this vacuum, albeit reluctantly, has stepped Angela Merkel. And we are now living in a German-dominated Europe - something that the European project was actually supposed to stop. Something that those who went before us actually paid a heavy price in blood to prevent. I don't want to live in a German-dominated Europe and nor do the citizens of Europe.

But you guys have played a role, because when Mr Papandreou got up and used the word 'referendum' - or Mr Rehn, you described it as 'a breach of confidence', and your friends here got together like a pack of hyenas, rounded on Papandreou, had him removed and replaced by a puppet Government. What an absolutely disgusting spectacle that was.

And not satisfied with that, you decided that Berlesconi had to go. So he was removed and replaced by Mr Monti, a former European Commissioner, a fellow architect of this Euro disaster and a man who wasn't even a member of parliament.

It's getting like an Agatha Christie novel, where we're trying to work out who is the next person that's going to be bumped off. The difference is, we know who the villains are. You should all be held accountable for what you've done. You should all be fired.

And I have to say, Mr Van Rompuy. 18 months ago when we first met, I was wrong about you. I said you would be the quiet assassin of nation states' democracy, but not anymore, you are rather noisy about it aren't you. You, an unelected man, went to Italy and said, 'This is not the time for elections but the time for actions'. What in God's name gives you the right to say that to the Italian people.

    'EU project' - You must be a clown, because that certainly made me laugh! the EU isn't a 'project', muppet, the EU is a dictatorship filled with unelected bureaucrats, the only thing Farage speaks is the TRUTH. Most people have awakened to this truth and the realization has began to sink in, unfortunately for every progressive thinker there is a degenerate to throw a spanner in the works. Crawl back under which ever stone you emerged from.

    You certainly wouldn't be so loud-mouthed if Britain dominated Europe instead of Germany, am I right? ;)

    I don't approve of unelected bureaucrats in Brussles who decide things without asking the peoples of Europe first, but I also don't approve of hypocrisy and polemics.

    I'm no UKIP supporter but when I see Mr Farage in his element like this I am proud to be British.
