So, the answer is to build a wall. I mean, he seems now to be the inheritor of Khrushchev, and worrying that the Berlin wall disappeared so that we could not prevent this flood of people coming from eastern Europe. Well, if that’s the policy he wants to espouse, then, fine. The reality is that there are plenty of people—. There are 1.2 million—1.2 million—UK citizens who live in the rest of the European Union. Are we to say to them, well, actually, they should be thrown out of the countries where they live and they should return back to the UK? He used the word ‘floodgates’. He used the word ‘floodgates’. He knows how inflammatory that word is. He cannot moan—. Talk about moaning; he cannot moan, once he’s used the word ‘floodgates’. The reality is that the farming industry will still need people from eastern Europe to work in the farming industry, whatever happens with Brexit; they will not be able to recruit locally.

I take the point, of course, that people have been unhappy with the current system of freedom of movement. That, to me, is apparent in the vote, but the reality is there will still be a need for people to move across boundaries in order to provide the labour that industry needs. Farming won’t survive without the labour that it can get in from eastern Europe, because they can’t recruit people locally. Every farmer knows that. And so, what we need is a sensible, humane and rational approach to freedom of movement and not talk about floodgates and stopping people from coming in and, effectively, building walls. The last thing humanity needs in the current crisis in the world is to build more walls and barriers.
