Sir David Jason attacks the Germans and the "Fourth Reich".
-
19-12-2011 1:53pm#1Sir David Jason has attacked the Germans, claiming that they want to run Europe.The well-loved actor, 71, famous for playing Del Boy in BBC sitcom Only Fools and Horses between 1981 and 2003, was born in Edmonton, north London, during the Blitz and was too young to be evacuated so, as a baby, he had to stay at home with his mother whilst his neighbourhood was being bombed.
Sir David has claimed that the EU is "the Fourth Reich" and claimed that Britain is becoming "a satellite of Europe."
His outburst came after a poll put the Conservatives six per cent ahead of Labour after the Prime Minister David Cameron took a hardline stance over the Eurozone treaty last week.
He made the comments in an interview for yesterday's Mail on Sunday's "Live" magazine.
