Transcripts For DW Conflict Zone - Guest Nicky Morgan 201807

Thinking more than welcome to conflict zone thank you its two years since the back seat referendum two years in which the government has failed to come up with an agreed position in the cabinet and what kind of bracks that they want to show themselves and well i think want to be seen is that bracks is undoubtedly extremely complex certainly but bench members of Parliament Like me would like to see more clarity on the Future Trading Relationship between the u. K. And the e. U. Progress has been made on some things to be fair to both sides but clearly theres a lot left to negotiate and agree in the remaining months ahead i mean theyve been negotiating and fighting with themselves they have been talking to brussels much and thats thats the shambolic aspect of it is so just that its difficult its just that they cant agree on what they want which is pretty shameful isnt it this is the future of this country in the future of this countrys economy hinges on what kind of bracks the u. K. Gets what they think theyre more responsible attitude from the Prime Minister and the government wouldnt you well i think as you just said this is incredibly lobby groups have come up now and said Large Companies are queuing up to shift work or investment out of the u. K. And this is huge implications for british jobs. Why didnt you back them up well we have in terms of the last few months there have been discussions in parliament on Customs Arrangements i had a debate with a colleague from another select committee of that cooper whos the chair of the Home Affairs Select committee back in april and there have obviously been concerns about companies in the company to raise a loss. In parts and absolutely dismayed them you so its just a difficult subject absolutely dismayed that this is being mishandled on daily basis now in the us and the reaction from the government from the Government Minister is to shut up back the Prime Minister very quiet absolutely i think. I was extremely concerned to hear the reaction from two senior Government Ministers about the way in which they said that businesses should not be raising their concerns absolutely needs to hear from business and one of the issues over the last couple of years has been that actually its been the business lobby groups way to the concerns not businesses themselves and actually theres no substitute for hearing from the voice of business directly the decisions that theyre having to make on the shop floor that going to affect. The future Financial Security of workers was so important to the ministers in your party think this is a minute state where you can hush up critical voices where a Public Servant like a minister tells business what it can say when it counts or had some personalized back in east germany listen to this what i think. Your party is this country and you know i look i think i think i do think those ministers worse speaking for the majority of the Conservative Party the Conservative Party is a Pro Enterprise pro Business Party the party didnt associate itself from what they said they did what im on the Prime Minister didnt do so souter said im not a minister so im not a minister youre not i was but im not im not here as i say im making it very clear what i think of those comments which i think are inexcusable because actually it is businesses that Employ Hundreds of thousands of people across this country who export and import goods and who we should be very mindful of the impact of the final negotiations on whats going to happen how this country is going to continue to work for them and more importantly for their employees who rely on those businesses large and small for their financial livelihood we saw the foreign secretary Morris Johnson who is reported to have told us that when he was asked about Business Concerns i can use the word just so if business for you problem is johnson. I think that mr johnson if he said that of course its anecdotal remark is remotely uncalled for by the foreign secretary who has himself talked about want to get a Global Britain who has asked britains amber season concerts around the world to be a short window for the britain is Great Campaign i think if he said that this is appropriate way for a minister whos holding one of the Great Offices Of State why just im just i just made it very clear that i think his remarks are deeply disappointing comes at the end of a long list of remarks have been deeply disappointed that im sure the Prime Minister dont stream me mindful of that not my it was enough to send tally well to be sacked look who the Prime Minister has in her cap and it is a high spirit from personal experience very much a matter of urgency and so go to museums a living yes well shouldnt you have an opinion on this you know im not going to your family for throwing through. What exactly exactly so i dont see why you tiptoeing around this particular issue because at the end of the day the issue is not about personalities its. Were competent job has not been very clear before that actually this breaks it debate its far more important than talking about one minister or one personality you know we shouldnt be endlessly debating this minister or that most of this these negotiations are incredibly important both for the future of the United Kingdom but also i would argue for businesses and others within the e. U. And weve got to get that right in the midst. Of this continually on a daily basis and she either doesnt have the ability the strength or the guts to do anything about that is a matter the Prime Minister is running the cabinet and shes running the government a chance or running the country and as a Member Of Parliament my role there is to represent my constituents and to scrutinise the work of the government to point out where i think things are going wrong im not going to get in this is going to maintain well i read something deeply pathetic isnt there about a Prime Minister who cant control her own ministers well thats a matter of you have to raise with the Prime Minister directly for me im going to court you and your debts are not in those i dont you scrutinize the people who are in the government. Im not going to get into debating endlessly certain personalities who love the fact theyre being talked about this is more important for my constituents their financial livelihood and job security will depend on getting the right deal not only because you will notice important most evil of those persons is the holding the country to ransom as they clearly are why im not sure how the breaks across and im not what im leaning in the wrong way you so well as a threat to democracy but you wont talk about them. Well you have clear you have your clear red line there wasnt you about this interview so far with an awful lot of time talking about one particular personality not talking about the issues. Well that is because we talk about the issues at stake in the Backseat Negotiations what is the future of the Trading Relationship how is london as a Global Financial center going to be regulated after it goes in which drives obviously have to use has been the answer to i mean Isnt The Problem the un the government seem to believe theres a kind of so the mythical third way available somewhere between the Hardline Reps Deers and the die hard remain theres a third way where britain gets to keep some of the good things that have from the e. U. Membership doesnt have to silly things like rules what i think is a big oshea ssion and that both sides actually are in the process of negotiating what that future relationship is going to like id like to see more progress id like to see more detail id like to know what that means for my constituents and as chair of the Treasury Select Committee on particular concerns obviously to know what that means for Financial Services companies too so those are the questions that need to be debated and they will be i think in the coming weeks weve got the june summit the cabinet have an away day were waiting for a white paper how many are way to it is going to go well i. Think with them well there was an illusion there was some movement in the way they held earlier on this year but as i say these are incredibly complex negotiations and parliament m. P. s will have a say on these right way through about to start debating next month the customs and trade bills both of which we very important as a say for the Financial Security of of millions of people in this country you said in april the premise the stated objective was to have fiction this trade and then peace should be able to tease out the best way to achieve this in a calm and rational way the problem with that is that Frictionless Trade has already been toned down by the if the u. K. Continues to insist on leaving the Single Market in the gaza. You know im not accepting Free Movement so its a nonstarter isnt it this friction is. Well i think its not so hard to understand its going to be difficult to achieve undoubtedly with all the other parts exactly as you said relating obviously to Free Movement and the desire for something for my party to want to negotiate our own trade deals but the point is actually and i think i said in that debate as well that the debate was a it was a debate of the governments own making because these issues havent been debated because there wasnt a clear and agreed Cabinet Position i think actually is an awful lot of discussion to be had about the details of customs and potentially Single Market access. Membership for people to understand i think what the e. U. Is looking for is a clear ask from the u. K. Government and im going to be expected that they would have it well that we hope will be covered in the white paper the government is due to publish in a couple of weeks but why not listen to them when they say that you cannot have sector by sector deals without accepting the guns of e. U. Conditions the yukos turned i mean if you listen to ivan rodgers who was britains former ambassador to the you hed been told repeatedly over many years that that is not on offer mrs merkel and others will not agree to scepter all deals in the over the Single Market or the Customs Union so its a nonstarter keeps on being pushed or something because expectations that some people keep on the she get along i think that actually that is a very valid point which is actually understanding what you where where the negotiations have got to and thats what were waiting for in parliament is an update now we have been told at the weekend in response to the announcements by air bus and others that negotiations are going well well you know i hope the pardon will have options to be updated on those negotiations very soon probably offer some of the Prime Minister will come to parliament and make a statement next monday afternoon in contrast to the lack of Decision Making from the british cabinet brussels has been Crystal Clear hasnt it the last December Michel barnier. Sat down with the full authority of the twenty seven other countries mrs maker and even get a cabinet to agree but hes got twenty seven countries and he said british red lines are leaving the European Court of justice and ruling a Free Movement meant that the only option left available was a Free Trade Agreement similar to the one on the got in twenty sixty one try taking him at his word thats it thats all theyre offering sadly im not in charge of the negotiations on the u. K. s side and of course what people say publicly as i know when i was either you Budget Minister and what they say privately in brussels can be two Different Things are not part of the private negotiations but what you have done youve advanced the socalled Mutual Recognition Model that would maintain Cross Border Trade in Financial Services in january you suggested throwing down the gauntlet to the negotiators so we could say to them that we dont buy their arguments about Financial Services not being in the Free Trade Agreement the canadian agreement has some provisions on services the only problem with that is that you rejected that idea out of her a month before you said it couldnt have been clearer could you theres no place for Financial Services he said theres not a single Trade Agreement that is open to Financial Services doesnt exist and yet in march in the communique from the e. U. Council there is a little paragraph that opens the way to Financial Services been part of a Free Trade Agreement youve got twenty seven countries who have to he speaks on the whole thing yes and thats why its very easy so i dont know march the march communique from the summit and thats something that i know that Financial Services companies both in london and the u. K. But also their european counterparts have been discussing its something that we in the Treasury Select Committee have quizzed both the Bank Of England and the financial conduct or forty about and i think this model certainly is worth exploring further obvious at the moment Financial Services regulations in the to the u. K. And the transaction is obviously absolutely. Aligned and so i think its definitely worth asking the question or what if anything and of course theres also this issue about global regulatory standards as well so many of the companies both in london and on the e. U. Continent will not be following just our own regulations and you characters theyll be following global regulations well theres a lot of work to be done there so the first im assuming you want britain to create a new Customs Union or partnership or range went with the you because turkey managed to get one but turkey frequently has ten mile long queues at its borders with bug area and rather than being a magic wand having this. Customs agreement it doesnt get rid of Export Declarations invoices insurance Certificate Transport Permits for each e. U. Country that they have to pass through theres nothing great about having a Customs Union with the is there what the point actually is how do you change customs customs or arrangement or partnership or whatever it was because which something that was anticipated in our Party Manifesto last year but also the other point is that along with government went to rome yes thats right and as we know we saw the election result which obviously has made things far more complicated for the government and its a selfinflicted wound well theres no point of it i mean we are we are theres no point in revisiting history theres no dance in the country for a further general election what their arguments for from i know from standing on doorsteps in my constituency is for the u. K. Government to proceed with the negotiations and then that with the best possible deal so thats why all these things should be very much explored the modelling is in trying to get a solution that kates both remain as and brick city Years Britain seems to be reduced to putting forward ideas that are pretty much unworkable is that really the best your party can do well i think that all options have to be on the table until there was an objective well i think the understanding is understanding of the why things are rejected now the fact that referendum has been hugely divisive in the. This country i do think one of the mistakes made early on was not trying to acknowledge that whilst the Leave Campaign of one sixteen Parliament Like<\/a> me would like to see more clarity on the Future Trading Relationship<\/a> between the u. K. And the e. U. Progress has been made on some things to be fair to both sides but clearly theres a lot left to negotiate and agree in the remaining months ahead i mean theyve been negotiating and fighting with themselves they have been talking to brussels much and thats thats the shambolic aspect of it is so just that its difficult its just that they cant agree on what they want which is pretty shameful isnt it this is the future of this country in the future of this countrys economy hinges on what kind of bracks the u.

This country i do think one of the mistakes made early on was not trying to acknowledge that whilst the Leave Campaign<\/a> of one sixteen Million People<\/a> forty eight percent of those who voted had not voted for that so in trying to bring people together to explain that we would be leaving but we would do it in a way that was not going to damage completely unnecessarily peoples own livelihoods and our economy thats what were sort of catching up to now thats right specks we debated both in parliament and in cabinet in the next few weeks you\rsaid in april that the position of the Problem Ministers<\/a> should not know in any way be under threat and thats the reason shown the kind of leadership labor m. P. s can only dream about. Frankly thats fundamentally at odds with the reality isnt it i mean just look at the opinion but the public arent buying that line fifty four percent believe the tories are ineffective this is the latest poll commissioned by Prospect Magazine<\/a> fifty two percent have you fundamentally divided and less than a third believe that you always put britain first in your priorities ineffective divided and failing to put britain first not much of america load is it from the public well as i say this as i know frank conversations on thats the scene is incredibly complicated nobody is calling out there for a change of government or a change of leadership of the Conservative Party<\/a> or no of course everybody has a nose or people have these because actually what people want in this country is a stable government to get on with the bracks it negotiations that only they want\rto have. Been doing that well they dont have an effective government doing it i think im going to get agree with it so well that the cabinet obviously have to come up very quickly with an agreed position on these issues do they bring that to do and well the bracks referendum was just two years ago the negotiations the e. U. As we know started just a year ago after the general election and what i was saying there actually was a say theres no other type within my party or within the wider populace for a change of leadership and i think if you going to compare to reason as leadership to jeremy corbins youll see on the issue of as with many other things on the labor side an even more divided party than we are but im not a part of that it really helps here the point is that actually what people want as i say is the best bricks that deal for the United Kingdom<\/a> and they dont feel they have a chance of getting it particularly the people who murder in this country as you said before the people who blow in millions of people who have to put consumer\rgoods in the shops who have to keep the factories working these are the people who have lost faith in your party you knew good well i think what theyre saying at the moment is theres undoubtedly much frustration with how things are. Panning out and in terms of the process of the unico she is i think what people are most complaining about this is when i talk to them is the lack of certainty its very difficult moment to plan for for much given the uncertainty surrounding the process thats why i think the next few weeks are absolutely critical the summit the cabinet away day the white paper thats going to be published and then the debate in parliament do you trust the Prime Minister<\/a> called the last november to say tone deaf ear what i was mentioning earlier about an article that had been written i suspect not by her but by her advisers who if you could you know you got to interrupt well im sure she im sure she absolutely would but it wasnt in terms of going to try and said just a moment ago about healing divisions in the country after the bracks referendum i\rthink some of that particular article did not do that if you were going to trust yes or do i want i mean this is the leader who denied just before last years election that a Social Policy<\/a> of james when everyone else in the country including all ministers knew that it had i mean look what happened a few days ago to the world respected former attorney general Dominic Grieve<\/a> at the height of the recent political frenzy over the bricks of bill after much argument in the Goshi Ation He<\/a> settled with the Prime Minister<\/a> on the text of the agreement only to find next morning the text of change you know you didnt settle with a promise or text me so i was no no no id be very surprised he has said that because i was in the meeting as were many other members of parliament with the Prime Minister<\/a> when that was being discussed he made it very clear that there were three parts or a new great to wording she could be started searching through and i wanted to go back over that was that was it that was a text of the table by by by government and i dont think. Youre\ra Story Person Surance<\/a> that the text would be discussed and that is exactly what happened but yes i think that theresa may wants there to be a deal i think she wants to get the best possible deal for the country and to try to get over as many divisions as possible. I dont see anybody else in government or in our parliament who would be able to offer anything at this stage that would be worth destabilizing the government for in changing any kind of leadership out what points will you put the countrys interests above those of your party and say this is enough i dont have faith in the leadership of this country i mean everyone wrote your selfappointed role is to scrutinise us going on youre not happy with whats going on the country is not happy with whats going on at some point you have to say as a representative in parliament enough is enough go potentially thats what i do have to do but i also know what point will you do that im not going to sit here i think its impossible what one thing i have learnt\ra lot more principle i think over the course of the last two years with with bracks it in my previous professional career ive learned that actually setting artificial deadlines and it is a mistake because actually whats happening these are complicated set of negotiations on many many different issues actually the end of the day as an elected representative my red line is in relation to whats best for my constituents turns around here well i think the next two weeks are absolutely critical in terms of shaping the future relationship between the u. K. And the e. U. Looking back over the last two years you were part of David Camerons<\/a> cabinet which approved this referendum why did none of you ever asked the kinds of basic questions that people are grappling with know what if what if we lose the referendum what is the party splits what if europe applies the rules what about the Northern Ireland<\/a> border why were none of these questions. Thought about before her and well i cant say they werent there were thought about. Well partly because of\rthe many of us campaigned in order to remain and its difficult if youre campaigning for one thing to gaze into the crystal ball and answer every question thats going to come up i deeply regret the result but the result is we in this country over see how they fare democratic vote difficult very difficult for people to accept but i think it is the right thing to do to balance those two now which is to say yes we are going to leave the European Union<\/a> but were not going to do it in a way that is damaging if we consider back to the past a read if the vote from two years ago actually i think what happens is the attention is not given so that future relationship between the two parties which is very important what is what is extraordinary looking back is that David Cameron<\/a> the Prime Minister<\/a> that you served actually acknowledged during the Referendum Campaign<\/a> that the no vote risked what he called destroying britains economy and diminishing its standing in the world literally destroying the u. K. Economy that was a war but he still went ahead and gamble with the future in the prosperity of tens\rof millions of people without any preparation for the cunt of destruction that he warned about how could you the cabinet how could he have been so careless with the fate of so many millions of britons well i think its important to understand the context in which the referendum arose there were and there still are many many millions of people in this country who were unhappy about the relationship with the you with our membership and they wanted to leave that become a defining what you took the top usually with the voters it was a top issue in the Conservative Party<\/a> was with the voters well it became it was rising up if you remember all the everyone talking about to start is with us every want to let you out of it and fed up with the air with my party banging on about how this was all done to clear the air in your party no it was undone to clear the air even though to some.
