Brexit Party Tour - Feisty Ann Widdecombe Attacks Enemy Territory

TRANSCRIPT (computer generated): Hello everyone wake up everyone hello what do we want to say to the EU goodbye that's right and we want to say goodbye in a complete fashion we do not want some souped-up version of Teresa may surrender document oh I'm not supposed to use the word surrender it upsets the poor little dears it makes them feel threatened but what do you call it when you surrender the power to decide what happens in your own country to a foreign power what is that if not surrender [Applause] so if they don't like the word surrender they should stop surrendering [Applause] and then they wouldn't have to sit and listen to that word but that is what they have been doing for the last three years in 2016-17 point four million people in this country voted to leave they did they didn't vote to half leave they didn't vote to just take back a couple of powers they voted to leave and they fought by that that they meant that Britain was taking back control of her own laws her own borders her own trade deals and was going to be governed by her own democratically elected government that is what leave me [Applause] there's another word they don't like they don't like the word betrayal what do you call it when politicians say that they will respect the result of the referendum and then spend three years trying to do the exact opposite if that is not a betrayal of a promise what is it so we're not just tossing words around those words surrender and betrayal have real meaning in the context in which we are using them and our message to those wimps at Westminster is really very straightforward they have a choice either Britain leaves the EU or we will make sure that they leave Westminster [Applause] and that is why we're ready for the general election it can't come soon enough for us because that is the way that we shall finally ensure that we you return to Westminster people who respect democracy people who are determined to implement rather than ignore the clearly expressed will of the people and it is that one word democracy which is why I joined the brexit party I am almost as old as the brexit party itself it was hardly formed when I stood by a Norwegian Fjord and I crossed the rubicon and I changed the allegiance of 55 years and I rang up Nigel Faraj he sounded surprised but here we are now after 25 weeks with enormous election victories behind us with tremendous energy with huge support storming ahead and rising in poll after poll here we are after just 25 weeks and that more than anything else German straits how angry and frustrated and fed up Britain is with the current situation we have a shambles of a parliament a shambles it is a parliament that is divorced from the people it is a parliament that regards this business as hampering overturning the government the government itself is at war with the speaker everywhere you look we have the worst Parliament since the Civil War and I do not exaggerate me and the danger of delay is not just the very practical danger that British business can't get on and make plans that British farmers can't make plans that British fishermen can't make plans it isn't just the prolongation of uncertainty time after time after time it is also promoting this delay terrible divisions in our country and those divisions will be healed when we have gone on and delivered brexit and can get back to worrying about the NHS the education system law and order on our streets [Applause] that is when the healing process will begin and it should have begun three years ago we should have very very simply said we are going instead of which we spend two years saying please may we leave we never needed their permission to leave [Applause] and we should have said right at the start we are going and until we have concluded a satisfactory trade deal then we are not paying a single penny in any divorce money [Applause] [Applause] no I do not know where the Boris really means it when he says we are going on the 31st of October but if he does mean it and even more important than that if he can really achieve it and if he achieves it with a clean break then we the brexit party will do all we can to make sure that he is able to carry that forward [Music] but if he doesn't then he is going to find that the next general election for him will be like leading the charge of the Light Brigade brexit to write of him brexit to left of him brexit in front of him bullying and wandering and we mean it we have the candidates in place we are ready whenever the general election comes so when we call out tonight that we are ready we are not just saying that to the nation we're not just saying it to ourselves it is a solemn warning to Westminster heed the people or go and we will make sure that you do so we're gonna leave and when we say leave we mean leave Theresa may still is not leaving that is not leaving and if that's what we end up with we're going to be around causing trouble for a very long time to come so my message to Parliament is this here the people heed the people obey the people which is what you said you would do and make sure that your children and your children's children grow up in our free independent proud Britain which is what we should all be campaigning for so oh we already well they heard that outside but they didn't quite hear it at Westminster are we ready
