- Next month Roy Jenkins returns to Britain after four years as President of the European Commission.
Before leaving Brussels for good, Mr Jenkins has agreed to an exclusive TV EYE interview.
Faced by Liew Gardner, he will talk of his views on the state of the Common Market and whether or not his four years in Europe
have tempered his enthusiasm for the Market. And they will talk about his political future and the possibility of a new Centre party

Great politician who really understood and avocated the real value and immense benefits of the European Union
CAP and CFP were a disgrace, a shocking scandal.
We paid over £300 BILLION during 47 wasted years, a shocking rip-off.
Oh! So he wasn't very knowledgeable then. Ok.
Britain's alternative future, to be more open, better invested in, more productive, faster growing, higher living standards and properly manned.
How apropos, thanks ThamesTV, more like this!!!
Good to see this
He couldn't roll his tongue round his arse.
Just like his side-kick Shirley Williams, he woofs and waffles about ''the benefits of Europe''
but dodges the point Llew makes about the decimation of the UK fishing industry.
The EEC was a Franco/German stitch-up to asset strip the UK.
By now the scandal of the CAP was all too obvious and it was costing billions of UK cash to fund it
but it barely benefitted the British farmer. The French troughers were neck deep in our cash.
There are no benefits for the UK in Europe. Ergo, BREXIT.
Ah, the smarmy elitist Roy Jenkins. Tony Benn was right about him
Tony Benn was a millionaire and son of a lord, not to mention an eccentric crank. Roy Jenkins was a miner's son.
And yet he was right about everything he said, you call him elitist only because you are too stupid to be a part of the elite.
Perhaps the only thing that he was right about then? I'm glad you've found something, because it appears to me that Tony Benn was pretty well wrong on everything else.
@@nautilusshell4969Benn was a remarkable man who did reflect a lot of views in the party at that time and the “new” Left was bound to
Affect the Labour Party since the 1960’s I personally don’t agree with all he did in the early 80’s but the SDP had no new ideas. Dead end and split the left of centre
@@th8257Jenkins ran away from his mining heritage from the Start. Elitist who had no business in the Labour Party As Dick Crossman said in his diaries , Jenkins was “temperamentally unsuited “ to the Labour Party
He would have been such a Remoaner had he lived longer. GET BREXIT DONE.
And look where you are now you troglodyte.
Get Brexit Done? Still?
Thank dear God, we are out,...a shocking disaster from Day One, a massive Franco/German rip-off.
