Nigel Farage Message To Europeans: "Get Your Money Out While You Can"
In Nigel Farage's first TV appearance since the Cypriot wealth tax was announced, the Englishman pulls no punches. In all his years and all his experience of the desperation of the European Union's leadership "never did [he] think they would resort to stealing money from people's savings accounts." The simple fact is that they know they cannot let any country leave, no matter how small, for "once one country goes, the whole deck of cards will come tumbling down." There is now "clear irreconcilable differences" between the North and the South of Europe and now that they have done this in one country, "they are quite capable of doing it in Italy, Spain and anywhere." The message that sends to people is "get your money out while you can." As far as his British constituents, he strongly recommends George Osborne (UK Chancellor) urge ex-pats to remove all their money and do monthly transfers from home. "Do Not Invest In The Euro-Zone," he concludes, "you have to be mad to do so - as it is now run by people who do not respect democracy, the rule of law, or the basic principles upon which Western civilization is based."
"They are propping up a Eurozone that, in the end, will collapse in disastrous failure and they are prepared to do anything to do so."

And if we're lucky they'll break some windows during the rioting. It will be economic utopia!
MDB, having a savings account is now cash hording... great, what has this world come too
If banks hoarded cash, ZH would be useless.
Bulldoze a bank + break some windows = Krugman wet dream
That's a Paul Krugman line, you can do better than that!
"Incentivise savers" — check
"Hoarding cash" — check
"Aggregate demand" — check
"Consumer economy" — check
Way to tick all the boxes, dude.
You forgot one
"Spend more"
"Go shopping."
If nothing else MDB, you are amusing.
Go long matresses because they are the new bank.
As I read somewhere else, mattresses now pay a 10% premium over banks.
It's actually closer to 100% but don't let the serfs know.
Yeah! kickstart that consumer economy!
Maybe we need to shorten the planned obsolescence cycle!
Or maybe if the govt. just confiscated everything from everyone then we would all have to buy new stuff to replace it and our economy would boom!!
FUCK YEAH!!
What? Are you some kind of cave dweller who has just emerged to the surface for the first time? Material goods have nothing to do with the economy, everybody knows that. The economy is fully virtual, as it should be. Produced goods as wealth are barbaric relics of bygone era.
Indeed good sir! My appologies for momentarily losing myself in the fancies of the past!
Here's to our digital future!
May our monetary overlords have mercy on our souls.
The only serious remnant of that past is paper cash, which should have been abolished long time ago in favor of fully digital cash. Now people can get away with removing their deposits and keeping their money at home, outside the system! How are we supposed to be able to fully control the economy and rescue the financial system when people can do that?
Exactly! How can we fully dominate a population when they can hide things from us.
This is why I propose that every household, car and workplace in america have a banker stationed there to monitor everything... and armed guards to protect the bankers.
People cannot be trusted to control their own finances much less the finances of the world economy.
Long holodecks.
Keep smokin' the Hopium MDB, you are going to need it.
As a good sheep, I prefer to hand over my saved money to a bank where it can be fractionally multiplied, leveraged, and endlessly collateralized to buy limitless amounts of G-Bonds and Indexes by a bunch of conflicted agents way more than I could've ever achieve by spending the money myself.
I'm even ready to take the risk of being corzined to acheive this higher purpose. It's just fair.
But fear not, I also draw on my credit card and mortgage to buy stuff I can't afford after inflation eats away my earnings. All I need to do is keep rolling over those debts and pay the maintenance margin (err, interest).
And just to make sure I'm not leaving anything to chance, as soon as I send this comment, I'm gonna punch myself in the face, breaking my own glasses, and hopefully getting some of it into my eye, and accidentally hitting the desk cables, break the computer and monitor, get my colleague electrocuted and trigger the fire alarm.
See MDB, I'm better than you
I can only assume this is sarcasm... but it does a fine job of passing for imbecility...
@ MDB:
This is a bowlderization of Keynes: it's incorrect. What it incentivizes is a shift of hoarded funds into more secure hoards.
Not by itself, ours is a credit economy.
millioDollarBonus are you mentally retarded? So the consumer should spend all their money? No savings, just spend. Spoken like a true Bernanke.
"This will increase aggregate demand and kickstart the consumer economy."
-----------------------
Sorry, I can't resist. Tell me troll, what would the "price" be for something you need to survive, but that I refuse to sell? You can't print food and fuel out of thin air like fiat and bitcoins. Damn, gotta stop feeding the trolls.
it's bloody fucking death to your precious and fatally fucking wounded consumer economy, MDB
only kick left is into a deservedly bottomless black hole of infinite bonuslessne$$
MDB actually made me LOL; I do hope I'm not starting to like his schtick
You're troll-fu continually gains so much attention. I congradulate you sir!
Only selected save once...sorry about double post
MDB you have the best answer to Imposter Krugman. Yes, I think it was Yellen who was saying that people should be penalized to hold balances of cash or something like that.
Brilliant.
Individualists arguing with a collectivist. What's the point? I'd prefer a ringside seat to see the collectivists indebt themselves into collective poverty without actually being in the fight.
Check please.
What's to worry about?
10% of the time, your deposits are guaranteed every time.
I invested heavily in European NATO surplus 7.62 ammo.
Just before the law of the sea treaty killed that little opportunity..
The asset is performing admirably and is quite safe - from the headspace end.
Highly liquid, these days, too.
Get your money out while you can:
Corzine will roll over any account for a nominal fee of ten percent of its value to his new fund.
Act now!
Quentin Tarentino already shot the scene of a Russian Oligarch politly getting his money from a Cypriot bank. He doesn't look too worried about Angela Merkel in the background either...

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
". . . . . . . . . . . . . waiting. . . . ."
boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom........boom
You have to remember that Nigel is a banker and I'm sure his friends in the city will be very thankful for all those deposits which will keep them nicely solvent, at least for a while
But he ain't wrong
Walking by my local Wells office today, I noticed four heavily armed security guards at the door. What could they possibly need that kind of firepower for? Hmm.....
Coming to a local branch near you.....soon.
Same - at my local branch making my usual withdrawl to repair my leaky, capsize-prone boat - and an armed guard where none had been for the 2+ decades I've been there... Foreshadowing I suppose.
I have a feeling WWIII just started...
can someone please really go and kick the real Paul Krugman.. I never realized I had that much hatred for a person.

Give 'em hell, Nigel!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good analysis of the theft here: "the white house gives it's full support of the robbery"
http://howestreet.com/2013/03/record-bank-heist-in-cyprus-spells-an-end-...
Hey you, standing in the aisles with itching feet and fading smiles....can you BTFD?
RUN BITCH! GET SOME HELP!
I miss Chappelle Show.
Nigel Farage sounds like a great candidate to be "suicided."
They already tried to remove him via plane crash.
And apparently did not work
@BullsNBeers
Stout. Totally badass. How many people can say, "Yeah, I walked out the rubble of that plane crash." Do his balls clank against his ankles when he walks?
It is also worth noting that it did nothing to stop him from speaking his mind.
Commendable.
we will see in the future how that private dinner at Rupert Murdochs residence in March 2013 changed his mind.
...and got sued by the pilot of the crashed plane, who hates his guts and was declared mental
Yes, the photos of this crash are quite memorable, and worth a look, if only for a dubious example of journalist as detatched bystander.

double post edit.
These cowards, assassins, thieves, weak men need to be extinguished from the face of the earth. Their offspring as well. They have killed heroes and comedians, taken over the media in order to advance their plan which is sheer fucking insanity to say the least. The policitians have lost their minds for money. The zionists havc ereached the top of all industries and as a result, we are going to see millions of people without a source of income due to their hunger for more and more and more money/control
If there are not 200 security guards around the people who oppose this movement, who are in the spotlight, then their are fools as well. Its clear by now that the earth is crawling with vermin who work for them, silencing the truth, staging events, pretending as if everything is just fine through media propaganda, while a global mass murder is under way.
It becoming unbearable to continue reading about this while they amass weapons and armies to move forward their agenda.
Seems its time that a plan is put into place to remove thse people. i think we will see drones dropping bombs on castles/palaces, yachts, banks, islands of refuge, where ever these rich assholes go when they are not destroying our lives. Justice system worldwide is tainted with their diabolical scheme.
There is no other choice and I am sure a couple thousand people who have the capacity to see this for what it is, like this man, agree. Negotiations, regulations, rationality mean nothing to these people, who want to control by destroying functioning infrastructures, so we have to beg for their mercy or starve. We need a team of vipers to work for the people and protect our heroes. Now where the fuck are they, is the only question I have. Stalk the stalker.
This is a dark time in the history of mankind. At this point, anyway you look at it, it will end in misery, even for the monied. So the least we can do for humanity is wipe the earth clean of their purulence.
Calling Team America!
Fuck Yeah!
Patience
Awesome. Someone send Nigel a catalogue for kevlar undergarments.
well the UK is getting ITS money OUt of the other scam, the BOE economy, and sending it by plane loads to Cyprus!
So...they say one thing and do the opposite!
Nigel, wink wink, just kidding!
good money is measured in pounds, after all ;-)
Farage is like that old uncle you see every now and then. Knows exactly what he's talking about and no bullshit.
'Captain HindSight?' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rmUZQrvF5o
SouthPark's Finest... fresh from Canary Wharf's fishing-hole, where this full-blown nascent charade has meastasized exponentially into epidemic proportionalities?... solely sponsered by the BOE, Barclay's, GS's/AIG, JPM's, et.el., of the shadowy`esqe world along-side the London Tower where they imprison the 'Real Truthsayer... Sir Julian Assange'!?
What say you, Nigel?
I wish he'd stop sugar coating his analysis.
This act really hits home for anyone. Savings accounts are almost ubiquitous in the developed world. When people realize that there is now counterparty risk to a simple savings account trust is gone.
Too dumb to be on accident.
Who in their right mind would risk the whole concept of electronic money, which allows a level of insulation from the bank runs of old, for a measly amount of euros?
pods
You don't hear this too often...
-- "counterparty risk to a simple savings account"
And yet thanks largely but not entirely to fictional reserve banking, it has been true the whole time.
"Too dumb to be on accident."
Not an accident, certainly not. But not dumb either. I think it speaks loudly to another undercurrent; TPTB (in Europe and the US) are gripped with a nearly mind-destroying fear. What they are afraid of I cannot say for sure. I could make some guesses, but so could we all, so I'll leave it there. But you don't have to know exactly what they are afraid of. It is enough to know that they are just that afraid.
"I'm not saying you should panic — but run, motherfuckers."
Rule #1: Never panic
Rule #2: If you are going to panic, be the first to panic.

He who panics first

He who starts to panick just now....
WILL SEE ME WAVING HANDS ON THE LAST LIFEBOAT OUT!!!
SEE YA LATER SUCKERS!!!
WHOEHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Where was MF Global located? Did they ever get the LOOTERS?
eeeuuuhhh.... yeah... sure...
SO NOW YOU CAN INVEST IN THE NEW AND MORE SAFE NEW CORIZINE FUND!!
10% DISCOUNT IF YOU BRING A FRIEND!!
Cyprus and ECB officials working on capital-control plans, according to sources
- Capital-control plans necessary contingency for when banks open. - Contingency plans include limit on daily bank transactions.
- Under capital-control plans border checks for cash over certain amount will be introduced. - Cyprus banks could stay closed until Tuesday March 26th according to sources -
Plans are in place to fly in EUR notes from other countries to feed Cyprus ATMs. - Control plans could be in place for weeks.
Why they do not say it straight? Roll in the tanks.
The longer they keep the masses from their money, the worse the bank run and the longer it'll take to coerce them back to trusting banks. At this point, I think they've lost a couple of generations.
Is he mad???
Europe has brought nothing but peace,stability,single market free movement of traded goods and services to all its children.why would we the people want to fuck that up by getting our heads out of our arses and really looking around at what is being done in the name of European stability?
C'mon Nigel ....seriously...
Be more like us Irish and bend over......
Mooooon river........
". . . I'm crossing you in style. . ."
Good show.
god i would love to see him address obama and congress
The piss puddles would be like the tide coming in.
Basically, most of what he's ever said about the EU Commission, it's personnas, their rise to power, its systems, its ideology and its implementations, has proven to be devastatingly correct.
So a good chance he's right in this video too.
Element, all gov ministries are cesspools, even Barroso's shared one. Of course he is 100% correct about the European Cloaca Maxima
would you really judge a city from it's sewers alone?
but as soon he leaves the commission's biz he is a rabid ultra-nationalist (fine for me) and talks the books of his sponsors of the city, and they'd love to see the eurozone in disarray, as Murdoch's Gang, too
I think most realize he's a city bankster in drag playing the reformist populist angle. You're entitled to dislike his politics but what has he done wrong? Like I said below, most of what he's said in that video has already been said at zh, in the past three days. Yeah, I know, you don't like that either.
what has he done wrong??? what has MURDOCH done? you don't get it, eh? did you ever watch his TV news critically, in several countries?
Hey DIPPY, what the fuck has Murdoch got to do with talking about NIGEL FARAGE? YOU are talking about Murdoch, NOT ME.
Or are you just SMEARING the man AGAIN?
Don't even bother answering, you're just not worth talking to.
look, you seem to be very well versed in technical matters, but how much do you know about British politics? suit yourself, and keep your hero Nigel - I don't mind him, only his propaganda and where it comes from
He's no hero of mine, I don't have heroes, he's just a dodgy politician with a view, but you appear to have an unexplained hair up your butt about him. He presents a point of view, he makes a lot of good points very well. You could go debate him, see how you go. If you can explain the merits of the eurozone to him, who knows, you may be able to talk him around. But you seem incapable of doing that here. I guess it's a communication problem, on your part.
I don't have to explain the merits of the eurozone to him, I actually support Nigel Farage and the UKIP in their stated goal of taking the UK out of the EU - which is not the eurozone, then the Bank of England does not even qualify for the EUR
communication problem? yes, of course. how am I to explain in a short comment things as complex as what is currently being debated in 17 eurozone parliaments?
can you do the same in the nuclear debates, where I look at you for information and comment because you obviously have spent more time on that?
again, I have no clue how much you know about British politics - or EU politics where he is an MEP. do you know, for example, that the UKIP MEPs don't vote there, out of self-chosen principles? meanwhile NF likes to joke about how much he spends from eu funds? did you ever analyze how much of the UKIP stance is straight out of the global Murdoch agenda?
They are many fine banks in the 'city of London' that will gladly accept your money.......HSBC, citi, barclays, JPM et al...........
WOW, strong comments. Buy Home Safe Companies.
Just buy the safes. There will be a strong market for small portable ones.
I would want a large Steel Fire Safe that could be bolted to the floor and or the wall.
I will put it on my shopping list.
I always enjoy watching him, he´s the best clown around.
Fuck you Ben Bernanke. And fuck you Paul Krugman. Doctor.
Into your bunker, Nigel!
Nothing that has not already been said on zh, but a good summation.
Maybe all of those Doomsdayers were not crazy after all.
Buy guns bitchez! If you can find them.
It's tough to do. I recently helped arm a friend of mine who needed a user friendly handgun ASAP, four gun stores had nothing but 22LR available. Did an online search, found one available at midnight, called when the store opened at 8AM and it was already sold. The most expensive store in town ended up having a couple high-end revolvers in stock.
I keep hearing that the manufacturers are working overtime to fill demand, but I'm not seeing a single new gun show up anywhere... WTF.
Right now it's a if you find it, buy it market. Who knows how long it'll be before we get back to even half normal supplies.
Try www.gunbroker.com they usually have guns for sale.
Oh some of them were probably crazy too, but as often happens it didn't make them less correct.
It's the hippies who were right.

I can't believe there's any debate about removing your money from a bank...
What the hell would it take?
indeed.
what the hell does it take??
Well I guess they my as well look across the pond and zap US accounts to save them. LOL. What a huge mess.
Hell yes Nigel...........bankruptcy. Fuck the EU. There won't be any need for discussion about the dreams of a Canadian/US/Mexico union with them going to hell.
the eu and ecb have looked across the pond...started in nov2012. trillions going to the european banks from the us fed. what do you think fueled this massive rally in equities....?!
Agreed, and i'll have what Nigel is drinking, smoking...make it double, what the hell
cyprus banks closed til next tuesday lol
Do not invest in Britain either!
What Russian (wannabe) Oligarchs do when they are not in Cyprus:
“911” is the only three-storied striptease club in Moscow. Every floor here has its peculiar atmosphere, special rules and show-program. Non-stop dancing show goes on at the big stage of the first floor; a good restaurant with sushi-bar is also at your disposal here. On the second floor you can relax watching the topless dancing girls. Here you will be offered a special SHOW MENU; its items include private dances or exclusive full striptease.
The upper you go, the more and more dissipated the atmosphere becomes. The third floor of “911” is a real paradise for those who don’t want to deny himself anything. Here you will enjoy free full striptease, as well as the EXTREME SHOW MENU; among its items you will find, for example, “Lesbian Dance” or “My Little Doggy”, when one of the girls will play a role of your pet dog. The floor is equipped with all the required amenities, including private rooms and VIP Jacuzzi. Of course, you can be absolutely sure that professional security and face-control wouldn’t let anything spoil your romantic evening in “911”.
You couldn't make it up could you?
Cyprus voted down the bill to impose the confiscation of depositor’s money. Now the IMF must act as their bluff has been called by the Russians.
The IMF must lose face here by backing down or they will start a Western world run on the banks.
The word from Jim Sinclair at: jsmineset.com
Well, the IMF has the right man for the job: Christine Lagarde.
Really, why does the world even need the IMF? What has it achieved? It just takes money from other taxpayers and wastes it in sink holes. It's just another of the relevance-deprived Internationale's parasites making things worse. We all know what the problem is, and the IMF is part of it.
the world doesnt need the imf but the 1% do to control the world....
take this up with the IMF's shareholders - do you know who they are?
Private property is private property. Removing funds from savings accounts is stealing. Removing stored labor through inflation is, guess what? Stealing! It’s exactly the same thing.
What is the difference between the Cyprus wealth tax on bank savings and Bernanke’s negative interest rates on savers? Nothing.
True, but now they don't even bother to hide it through money printing...
It's the difference between slipping arsenic into a person's food over the course of a year and pouring drain cleaner down the person's throat. Same end result, but one's a lot less noticeable.
Bernanke is giving us the slow death with arsenic because he doesn't want anyone to recognize what he's doing.
We knew about the latter and could do a thing (buy PMs) or two about it?
One gets you shot, the other gets you blank looks?
I've got about 4000 euro's left in the bank, all the rest is out. I'm even negative on my visa.
But I do have a small Alibaba treasury hidden away :)
BRING IT ON BITCHEZ!!!

Somewhere a rich old lady is speaking into her watch, saying "I've got one that can see!".
Methinks Brussels will have a rash of unexplained suicides shortly. now that Putin is heavy into the mix.
Why do you think their Finance Minister tried to resigh today? They are running for the hills and more worried about their necks lthan their bank accounts. OK, both maybe, but still. Nobody wants to have their name associated wtih this thing, that's why the ruling party abstained from voting and there wasn't a single vote for the bail-in. Wont matter though if those Russions lose their money there will be hell to pay.
He probably wants to survive. Poor guy.
Polonium Tea!
Amazing there is a brit with this kinda of balls, that does not drive a cab that is.
Also when has it been taboo, to default on bonds that you cant repay, what ever happened to buyer beware? if you bought the bonds thinking they will always get bailed out, then you deserve to lose your money. and if you bought them not knowing the downside risk then you need to learn a leason the hard way.

"In all his years and all his experience of the desperation of the European Union's leadership "never did [he] think they would resort to stealing money from people's savings accounts.""
same here but i thought it was QE...the fed would never print...!
"The simple fact is that they know they cannot let any country leave, no matter how small, for "once one country goes, the whole deck of cards will come tumbling down." "
same reason banks dont foreclose on homes.....it would make the rmbs worthless.
"It can't afford Cyprus to fail" but can it afford Cyprus to steal ?
If he was a US citizen, he would be arrested for terrorism. 'Inciting bank runs'.
I keep waiting for the Brits to pull that stunt.
All it would take is a call from Obama. At the moment Farage is not doing any kind of tell-all or inciting unrest. He's just commenting on public events. If he ever starts calling for strikes or occupations then he better stay away from hot tubs.
Schäuble just said in German TV. It will not last until June until Cyprus runs out of money. Cyprus banks depend on emergncy liquidity of ECB at the moment. It can happen much faster.
Farage, the only credible next UK Prime Minister.
God might save the queen but I doubt that God or Farage can save the UK from its downward spiral.
The world is changing before our eyes and in the last 5 years too many of us have been lulled into believing that things would get bettter. Well guess what?
The only thing propping up the UK is the $ from London banking and London real estate
The funny thing is that the price of gold may not rise by much given that people will not be able to withdraw their money in sizeable amounts with which to make purchases.
At least you will not have met with any boating accidents like the rest of us.
Yep, it's either Liechtenstein, gold or any bank that's heavily invested in drug-trafficking money, preferably one with the pedigree of the opium-wars-wealth-to-crown-laundering for me.
HSBC Private Bank, 78 St James Street. We can do anything you want, no questions asked...
I'd be careful with HSBC-they're whacking jobs like crazy-their books must look like shit
It's nice seeing him go off in such a likable way, especially on RT. He's the guy in the room not afraid to say what everyone else is thinking, that's for damn sure. And while I'll agree it might not be anything new that he's saying, it's surely going to have a larger impact coming from someone such as himself. He not only speaks the truth, but has his facts straight to back it all up.
Fuck you bernanke and all your cronnie cum guzzling circle jerk buddies i.e. mdb.
so for Mr Farrage it is ok to Hyperinflate
USA is much safer? It's all a ponzi anyway.
I still don't see all the fuss over this....I would rather have this approach than have the central bank printing massive amounts of money and giving to their buddies. Who said income tax is any fairer?
At least it is honest theft.
so you would rather have the option of one dick up the ass instead of two...personally i will take no dick up the ass...!
this is why the bankers get away with shit. idiots like mark123....
