The EU did not RAISE BARRIERS, they applied rules that we helped formulate while we were part of it😔😔😔.

I am so sick and tired of these lies. When is the general election ffs?!

Delusional

The woman is a complete liar... another lame interview...why does he bother?

I can't listen to her lies

Emperors new clothes & gaslighting. There’s not a single benefit to Brexit. Our lives have gotten worse since. Certain people profited from it like JRM who made £7 million. For the public costs of everything has increased, quality of everything has reduced. In reality for most Brits there’s been no benefit at all.

Fruits of Brexit = The Grapes of Wrath

Delusional or just plain lying, bye Kemi. Hopefully we'll never see the likes of this rabble ever again.

Why is she allowed to spew this nonsense unchallenged? What retaliation? They didn't kick us out, we decided to leave. Unless they thought they can leave and still retain all the EU membership benefits?

She gives the impression she thinks she's way more important and well known to the public than she actually is

We had a free trade agreement with our closest neighbours when we were in the EU. Goods, finance and services flowed frictionlessly between countries. Leaving the EU meant our leverage for trade deals was severely diminished. We will never see any benefit to Brexit.

I'm still confused why people still think leaving the eu single market actually worked out for us.

Kemi is on Class A drugs, the whole tory party is on All Class A drugs

The EU did not retaliate - The UK acquired third country status at their own free will.

Nobody reminds her that leaving either customs union or free market were NOT even voted on! Shameful interview!

"We have the most comprehensive deal with the EU. No other country has the same deal." No other nation is called Great Britain. And Norway, Switzerland and even Turkey have better market access. Just pute misdirection from this condescending woman.

what a pack of lies

I cannot stand this woman 😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😏

Receiving anything from UK here in Portugal is now a nightmare also expensive a great meany companies will no longer send or receive from the UK

In what way did leaving the EU make it easier to import from non-EU countries?

All of her reports have been debunked...!

The only thing Britain benefited from Brexit is little Britain got even littler and more isolated. So well done 😂😂😂🎉

Why isn't she being called out as a liar? Is Dale a journalist or a sycophant? (Rhetorical question).

"we didn't raise barriers, the EU did" is she trying to say that leaving the EU should have come with no changes in our relationship with the EU? what does she mean that the EU raised barriers when we are the ones that "chose" (if you can call being lied to by governments and the press a truly democratic vote) to leave the european union?

The EU didn't raise barriers. The EU did not retaliate. The EU only enforced the rules for countries outside the EU from the first day that the UK was no longer in the EU. Unlike the UK apparently, the EU checks imports and wants to avoid spoiled or substandard food to be imported for human consumption (which HMRC in spot checks has found to be common now in the UK)

The lieeeees

Meanwhile, back to reality.

Brexit Benefits is in their heads.

Why do you give her a platform to make up things and lie?

They were really scraping the bottom of the barrel when they picked her as a minister. She’s way out of her depth.

She just lies continually.

Another softball interview from Dale? You do your profession proud, Sir!

Glad she had the "appetite" to risk all our futures! Shame it's palpably not paying off!

Lizard woman

That was not an interview, shameful lying throughout

No benefits, then. Just say so. Blue passports?

What absolute bobbins .

Kemi Badenoch is a deluded liar. It seems only yesterday, that I had never heard of today's phenomenon of a food bank and British trade links were vast, global and strong.

Con artist

You only have to look at kemi to understand why she hates people so much

Like the famous Bananas of York, the Grapes of Manchester, the Peaches of London and the Kiwis of Dover.... Yeaaaaah......😂

Thanks for keeping us updated! I feel sympathy and empathy for our country. low income people are suffering to survive, and I appreciate Deborah. You've helped my family with your advice. imagine investing $30,000 and receiving $95,460 after 28 days of trading.

It's encouraging to see that the comment section is almost universally not buying this Tory gaslighting.

I am a book collector, and since Brexit I have bought not a single volume from England. And, I bought all my media etc from the UK.

Ian Dale is a pointless interviewer when it comes to the tories and brexit coz he's an enabler and bias He will never hold tories and brexiteers into account

What prime minister is she talking about? Im sitting here absolutely puzzled 🤔 flickering .

The ECHR and the EU are totally separate entities. The only thing they have in common is they both have the word " European" in their titles.

The way she can sit there and just lie? Gross and self promoting.

"These Brexit benefits... are they in the room with us right now?"

Is the UK relying on the US? What happens when the EU is excelerating?

Ian Dale of LBC speaking with "Olive, from On the buses" about native unicorns, griffin's, fairies, elves, and phenix. (LBC - did you book her as an April fool joke?)

Funnily enough, I dont believe a word that comes out of her mouth.

The EU did a free trade deal with the Philippines and a 97 per cent free trade deal with New Zealand (protecting farmers). And the UK need to have prove of origin and that is a trade barrier also the UK lost the just in time advantage.

Those barriers were already there and the UK government was front and centre when it came to implementing them. Her saying that the EU is raising barriers is not only trying to rewrite history but also saying that the EU shouldn't be allowed to "take (back) control".

Will it ever end. Jesus.

Australia deal, leaving the customs union , imports from Morocco etc. all lies, lies, lies !

2 tories (1 failed the other still current) having a cosy chat, this is not an interview...

She has a husband?

The EU didn't raise barriers. We didn't raise barriers either. The barriers were there all along, we just jumped over them putting ourselves on the other side.

4 years of tory lies and them taking us for complete mugs. This period cannot end soon enough

“The leaving was talked about, rather than how we would leave”. True, in a strict reading of the referendum question put to us, but she then proceeds to say “when we said we were leaving the EU, leaving the Single Market was always part of that, leaving the Customs Union”, which implies we’d all signed up to a particular “how” as well as the “what”. Odd, given the likes of Boris and Daniel Hannan assuring everyone at the time of the referendum that nobody was talking about leaving the Single Market.

When you the next general election? I have my photo ID on me at all times

The very thought of Badenoch in a swimsuit is too horrible to contemplate !

“All these 27 countries are doing something different”… but Kemi, I thought everyone was forced into doing the same thing as part of the EU?

I disagree and the facts uphold my view.

What fruits? Please explain....

yes the EU did put in place trade barriers with the UK as the UK became a 3rd country and changed standards which required having trade barriers to perform checks. but this is purely because WE left the EU. now we didn't apply checks as we had open borders and didn't carry out any checks or just spot checks. the ECHR protects our rights from the government, if the government decides to allow raw sewage in your drinking water you can take them to court under the ECHR, if we leave the ECHR they could then do that and you would have no recourse.

All lies

OMG So our Trade Minister hasn't heard of WTO rules. She should do, as the UK and every country in the EU are WTO members. Within the WTO there rules under the GATT Treaty that define who and what are Third Countries, and their rights and responsibilities in trade deals. These are formal rules, and they are not discretionary. And our Trade Agreements with the EU has to comply with those formal rules. As Kemi worked in Compliance in the Financial Sector, she should be aware of those international rules. But her answer stating "the EU raised trade barriers against us" doesn't fit the facts. Perhaps she needs to brush up on WTO rules, because that answer doesn't fit the facts.

Why isn't he openly laughing in her face...spineless, utter incompetent journalism

Deluded

Unicorns are cheaper now, though. I bought 3 from Argentina, and they were much cheaper than the ones I used to buy from France. And I can now buy cheese from Malaysia for only 4 times the price I paid for it from Germany! Result. AND my shoes and clothes are VAT free! I think.

We could of left the EU and stayed in the customs union and single market. Don't remember being given that option in another referendum. Wasn't put out there more BS.

£350m x 52 = £18.2 billion. Where is it?

Promoted way above her capabilities

We are getting worse deals than the EU has. They have more to offer. Truss talked up agreeing a worse deal with Japan. Badanock walked away from a worse deal demanded by Canada.

The EU did not raise barriers. The UK left the EU and beame a 3rd country. Therefore the same import rules apply to the UK as any other county outside the EU . The UK has not been subject to rules that do apply to 3rd countries. This is fact. Badenock is well aware as is Ian Dale,

We could buy tomatoes from Morocco when we were in the EU! Ffs

Hahaha finally starting to see the fruits of Brexit... Its like being left outside the nightclub when all your friends were allowed in, but you didnt want to pay the 5 quid entry. And then youre out there in the rain going "I didnt really want to go in anyway" At least I saved myself 5 quid... Right. Those are the "fruits of Brexit" Being left out. Brilliant move.

Tell that to the recent "growth", of the economy

If you didn't know the reality on the ground, listening to her you'd think UK is doing brilliantly.

Sorry, I missed the supposed "fruits" in what Kemi said.

Deliver Brexit 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 Trade Deals 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 the only thing I know is that if I buy anything from our European neighbors we now pay customs duties and VAT, which was a tax brought in to pay our levy on being a member. Now were not in the EU, why are we still paying it.

Not in my bank balance.

The Brexit ringleaders said we’d stay in the market - “like Norway”: -Daniel Hannan: "Absolutely nobody is talking about threatening our place in the single market" -Boris Johnson "we think that leaving the Single Market would weaken our economy and hurt jobs, trade and investment". -Arron Banks: "Increasingly, the Norway option looks the best for the UK" -Owen Paterson: "Only a madman would actually leave the market" -Boris Johnson: “There's no plan for no deal, because we're going to get a great deal" -Chris Grayling: "There's a free trade zone from Iceland to the Russian border and Britain will still be part of it after we vote leave" -Matthew Elliot: "There is no question about it, Britain will still have access to the single market after we vote leave" -Nigel Farage: "Wouldn’t it be terrible if we were like Norway and Switzerland - they’re rich, they’re happy, they’re self governing” -Daniel Hannan: "Norway, Switzerland, all of these countries have complete free trade with the EU, and by the way, I can't help noticing that they're doing pretty well".

I wonder which is this woman's favorite Brexit benefit. A bit like playing chess but you can choose which way your pieces are moved. The result will always be nobody wants to play with you.

Boris Badenoch. "You get squirrel." This reminds me of Monty Python's "Look on the bright side of life". What does it take to admit a mistake? And fix it?

Dale is completely f..kin useless.

I can’t tolerate the Tories appetite for risk

Any idea to no longer be in the human rights group that is following the EHCR is unique to the UK. Only Belarus and Russia are not part. And to be clear the only relation with Brexit is that I don't think it's possible to be in the EU when you are not implementing human rights

What a liar !!! There’s no benefits

Tomatoes too expensive, eat Turnip. Obviously!

At 4'25" : "we didn't raise trade barriers, the EU did". This is not true. And it's not "retaliation" as Ms Badenoch says. There were no trade barriers when the UK was in the Single Market. Leaving it meant that the UK became (and is) a third country, subject to the same barriers as other third countries. Did Ms Badenoch really believe that that the UK woul;d keep all then benefits of the Single Market after leaving it?

now there is no plain level field, the EU farmers get to substitute the UK not, the EU farmers have international food high standards the UK doesn't, in the past there was no exports rules or vat, now the UK has 27 this is because every country have different rules

Dear kemi..you are wrong and you are lying to our faces. Sincerely, dutch person with friends in the uk. Brexit was the dumbest thing you guys could have done

Love it, she admitted there are problems with Brexit. The beginning of this conversation was hard to listen to but she got there in the end and admitted it!

Didn’t she recently sign an MoU with Florida and pretend it’s a trade deal? This is the level of brexit benefit we’ve sunk to

Blaming the voting public for the customs barriers now in place is pretty wild. Seriously.

Leaving the ECHR just means they are not going to follow International Rules...which Internationally means UK are not to be trusted. Rwanda have already said if UK are breaking the international law... the agreement finishes.

Who is this woman? A government spokes person ?
