@@epicjaquisemusic4462 please lay out exactly which of Powell’s views on mass immigration are “uncivilized”. As for me I am an immigrant and also the son of an immigrant in my native country so if I were you I wouldn’t presume to know my personal thoughts. People like you are at the very heart of what I was talking about. Clearly unwilling to listen to or tolerate a view that doesn’t line up with your own.
Everything Powell has said has come to pass, and the worst thing is. It’s getting worse than anything he could’ve imagined!!
The worst thing is many, many people seem not to care. Or EVEN worse, they celebrate it!
Totally agree.. should have listened to him!
too true kris
Yep, that's the racist view alright.
@@colinmcmb nothing racist about saying multiculturalism is a failed endeavour. Nothing about saying certain parts of Birmingham and London and many other cities in the uk you could mistake for being in the Middle East. Hundreds of thousands of people who have no interest in assimilating into our society’s or even learning our language, it’s clearly a massive problem and it needs to be challenged!!
Enoch was 100% correct. Look at the state the UK is in right now
There's a terrible servile attitude throughout British life today where racism is tolerable if it's directed toward white people. We are being bombarded with anti-white propaganda in a country of 82% white people.

Imagine being able to actually sit down like this in 2024 and have such a civil conversation?
Civility is easy when you know how. Trouble is Britain (pro-rata) is worse than most other so called civilised societies! You could say we are generations behind the curve with a widening gap between rationale and irrational behaviour. Racism and racial prejudice make for uncomfortable bedfellows!

Went from Private to youngest Brigadier General ever, predicted exactly what is happening now, the best Prime Minister this country never had. Genius.
Was a Professor of the Classics AND went from Private to Brigadier General all by the age of 31 !!! However the curse of being a person with such extraordinary intelligence is that he is surrounded by fools.

He was never prime minister unfortunately. Maybe things would have been different if he was.

I miss the times when people could speak the truth without censorship or the fear of being cancelled
Those who opposed Enoch Powell and still oppose his views should ask themselves;
We had two world wars with millions of lives and pounds wasted while defending these isles from invasion. Then, for reasons I still don't understand, we invited foreign people and powers to just simply apply politely and walk in instead. We now have entire sections of Britain which are populated and even wholly managed by foreign forces, sections of which the indigenous people would not dare walk into in their own country. Why was this situation ever allowed to even be promoted let alone become a reality.
What times are these? Enoch Powell was fired for what he said. In general, that time period involved a lot of cancellations, particularly of anyone suspected of being a communist, where they were blacklisted from working and pursued by secret services. We're better off today where "cancellation" where just means "people don't like me on the internet".
who the fuk are you telling me wat the fuk to say
there is no law its fake
not the truth
It’s a blessing for him that he isn’t around to witness what he so eloquently prophesied.
His point about immigrants having no affinity with the British society has never been more poignant than today.
Some of those immigrants back then had family members who had served in the British Army in various wars for hundreds of years.
@@aundraeblackwell2949 That doesn't mean that these immigrants are going to culturally assimilate. Very large empires throughout history used very diverse personnel to fight their wars purely because they expanded and conquered very different human groups.
@mikespearwood3914 Some of those immigrants ancestors are from England and represented the empire overseas.
Great Britain told the peoples of the countries they colonised that Britain was now their homeland, not their place of birth. Those thus colonised cannot be criticised for returning 'home', which they have done in their tens of millions. In the decades since, those immigrants have changed the fabric of Great Britain, and it's up to those who live there to determine how that's all worked out for them.
The British Prime Minister, the Home Secretary and a few more cabinet ministers are children of immigrants. Enoch Powell lost his war against immigrants long time ago.
Enoch Powell makes more sense everyday, he knew his political career was over the minute he made his infamous speech and he still made it, I cannot think of a political figure today making that speech, this to me makes him a British hero

By far the most important aspect of this clip is that the interviewer asks a question and the interviewee is allowed to answer it without interruption. As such, the listener is informed. Our modern media no longer allows its audience to be informed. It has chosen to be our instructor.
Dick Cavett carries a rare skill in television interviewing - fully listening to his guest's responses and allowing his audience to do the same.

@georget3953 people like you just shouting "racist" never elaborate on their comment. Now it is well know and proven that he wasn't a racist, all of the people like you who are probably a part of the violent, lying far left simply make yourselves look like fools.
R.I.P Enoch Powell, you were totally right about what was to come.
Unfortunately...
We surely need a reversal of this ludicrously masochistic doctrine preaching love for all cultures and races except the indigenous white population.
A rare thing indeed..a politician with integrity..we need another like him
That's why Heath stabbed him in the back, he was terrified of his towering intellect and integrity.
While the subject matter is controversial and the issues too complex for a short social media comment, what instantly stands out here is how well informed and willing to articulate Mr Powell is. Contrast this with todays politicians who appear to know nothing and say even less, seemingly single-minded in their quest to advance their own estate.
He was an intellectual who was smarter than everyone else he studied history and knew what happens when people move to another country and the consequences
His biography is worth a look. He was s genius.

Now he would be shouted down by someone like that Izzard bloke.
He was focused on adding context to his much maligned remarks, which is definitely missing nowadays, which the interviewer didn’t cut short. Today’s interviewers seek conflict and emotional triggers to captivate viewers, think Morgan. Powell displays the pedigree that the Conservatives no longer possess.
As an Irishman, can't believe that there are no Englishmen like Enoch anymore. Punctual, pragmatic, charismatic and a patriot. Our neighbours have truly fallen victim to the current sad state of current British politics and media. Bring back the classical stiff Englishmen, I say!
Real English men were turned into transwomen. There are no men in England anymore. It's the women who wears the trousers of the house. 😂
I should imagine there are, but are not allowed to express such views. I worry about us all in Britain and Ireland. Although we have had our differences, I never thought of the Irish people as enemies. Now, with what we have in England, and Ireland too…..I’m afraid of what is to become of us all. Unless something is done. 🌹
Everybody who warns of these issues is cancelled. Nigel Farage is the closest thing we have to Powell today and look what they've done to him.
Punctual? You mean he was on time for the interview?
Regretably there are still many arseholes of his type around today.
It's such a sorry state of affairs here in Britain today. Nobody will stand up, nobody will speak out and nothing will be done. Years of being told we should be accepting of others whilst being told we should be ashamed of our own culture and history. Years of being told the Union Jack represents colonialism whilst being encouraged to fly the flags others, years of having to accept the colonisation of our towns and cities whilst we are forced to give grovelling apologies for our colonial history ,which most of don't condone and none of us are guilty of. Years of us being told that when we go there we are "colonizers" but when they come here it is "multiculturalism". All of those years have beaten down British pride in our culture to point were our own capitol city, our own, beautiful London, that our Grandparents fought for is now barely inhabited by the English. We have labelled those who have stood up as hateful far right Nazis. So I'm sorry to say that there are no longer any "stiff Englishmen". Just emasculated men, who dare not show pride in their flag, country ,culture and history, for fear of being labeled a bigot.. I wonder where all these newcomers will go when Britain is just like the places they fled from in the first place.. Sad sad times.
"We know now that unless some drastic change happens, large parts of many of our cities will by the beginning of the next century be occupied by a populace which has nothing in common with the people of this country." -- Enoch Powell, 1971.
He was completely correct. London is an British city in name only.
Enoch was right.
We are getting to a stage where the foreigners are wagging the tail of the dog.
The Muslims in particular just do not want to integrate and wish to impose their standards onto the majority.
London is a reflection of many, many great cultures from all around the world. And that is one of the things that makes it a magnificent city.

@@fanvalryinc6527 Well said.
He spoke the truth with no malice, exactly what was happening
This man should of been prime minister, I’m sure Great Britain today would of been a greater and nicer place it is today
It is probably a blessing that Enoch is no longer around to see the full decline of the country he loved and to have his predictions become 100% true only to be 100% worse than he could ever have imagined.
It would be a massive step down to hear him on TV everyday saying "I told you so..."
@jayseabie215
The full decline of the what???
Shut up, just shut up 🙄
England still has law&order, people can still get jobs, you can still use transport and so on.
I agree that mass immigration is a problem(and I'm an immigrant) but you can't say that England has gone worse, it hasn't!
Think before you speak, you humpty numpty! 🤨
He was so right
i mean the decline has been mandated by the conservatives, his own party.
Let's look at the facts shall we?
- WW1 (started by white folk) 40 million dead.
- WW2 (started by white folk) 38 million dead.
- Vietnam War (started by white folk)
- Iraq War (started by white folk) 450,000 dead

And now much, if not most, of the top government positions in the UK are increasingly filled by foreigners. London may never have an actual ENGLISH Mayor again.

Pretty hard to find a politician of that calibre and courage in the UK today.
He began his speech with the words "one of my constituents said to me". He then took the concerns of a constituent to the house, and was branded a racist as a result. So he did his job and he was still punished. Now Britain is a changed country and everything he warned us about is coming true.

It started in the 70s and 80s with the riots.

The Anglo Saxons wiped out the native Britons in many places, erased the language and culture, stole land, went to war with the natives. They were they worst!
It's the the English need to 'go back to their own country' i.e Germany, Denmark, France etc.
And why is it OK for the English to colonise other countries? But when migrants come to the UK, there's uproar??

A fascinating character. I can just see him looking down from above at the UK now and saying in those clear dulcet tones...I told you so....
Why do we never learn from past mistakes...
Enoch Powell knew where the world was going and called it as he saw it,he was one of England's most intelligent, eloquent and pragmatic politicians, well said Sir.The term racist is a term that has become weaponized and used as an insult in a derogatory way and a term that many using it have no idea of what it actually means there is a fine line between being labelled a racist or a patriot and the left wing love to blur those lines.
Racist is not an insult. It's natural human behaviour. As Powell suggests, it's deliberatly ill defined. But in essence it means "accepting that there are differences in ethnicity, and acting accordingly."
Same with "discrimination." It's not bad. Infact, if you cannot discriminate you cannot think. Which is exactly why they want to make it a social taboo.
Its Crazy, prior to researching E.Powell and ganing the knowledge to make an informed dicision about him, my perception was of an evil little man who was power hungry, how far from the truth is that. Just shows you dont listen to the mainstream propaganda and take it at face value. This situation happens on a regular basis.

So is the United States

Lol the guy was Welsh decent, and mixture of Normans and celts. No English in him whatsoever
He did warn us but they wouldn't listen
Dick Cavett was in a different league to modern day interviewers. He asked Powell a question and allowed him to answer in the way he wished. Today, he'd be interrupted every 20 seconds
@Spike Ragesonagain Russell Brand is an utter clown...
Especially by the likes of Piers head up his arse Morgan.
*For TRUTH, PUNCH MY Face!!!*
Very true, and it’s a result of the social media “look at me” era that we now find ourselves in. Everyone has to be seen over others and has to be the most important person in the room. We live amongst self promoting narcissists who are incapable of letting others speak.
its worse, they wont come on tv
I can't imagine such a civil, intelligent discourse happening today. Can you imagine Enoch Powell being interviewed on 'The View'?
Farage gets plenty of air time, he's a racist old twat too.
It would be like trying to have a conversation with children on the view
By interviewed do you mean bullied ridiculed and called offensive names?
Enoch Powell was a terrible evil man, you don't want to be like him
With those harridons? No way!😂
Every word he said has come true
What an intelligent man he was. And how much foresight he had. If he was here today, he wouldn't recognise the place.
Very sad and disappointing that we do not have such orators and knowledgable 'leaders' in our current government, or the 'opposition'.
And THIS is why it is important to let people SPEAK and hear the WHOLE story to form your opinion. By hearing out the man or woman themself. That is something that truly has gotten lost in our modern times.
yeh he's awful.
People are afraid to hear an opinion that invalidates theirs because they’re not that confident in it. If they were confident that what they believed was objectively true, they wouldn’t need to cut through someone every 20 seconds to reiterate their point.
Jimmy Kimmel would have jumped in at sentence 2 with a jibe someone over a earpiece screamed at him
It’s not lost, it’s erased. The difference is that it’s BY DESIGN.
You will not think, you will not openly discuss ideas, you will follow the state and corporate view of “morality” without question and any opposing opinion is almost illegal and is illegal in many cases.
This is before Political Correctness when one could listen and then decide for themselves
A very sensible man who understood reality rather than ideology 🥰🇬🇧
Amen.
Our apologetic politicians are doing everything imaginable to make us ashamed to be white.

In 2024 how right he was ,no doubt he is looking down now and saying told you so but you didn't listen ,🤔🇬🇧

I wish he was still around today to see how right he was. This man was ahead of his time.
"The term racist is a modern term of abuse, and the term of abuse is the more effective, the less defined it is, then you can throw it at anybody and anything"
Paraphrased a bit, but honestly prophetic to the times we live in now.
I agree with you and Enoch, you can see something is very wrong when most left leaning media has to ban comments on videos of Enoch powell just because people might point out how right he was. It's like the people who calls trump and his part jewish government "nazi's" it's nothing but woke nonsense.
@@Demitrisplayground
The term "n*zi" is itself a term of abuse.
It's extremely undefined and does nothing but paint the caricature that has been built up by hollywoods propaganda.
Anyone who you disagree with can be called it, for even the smallest difference in belief or values. I refuse to use the term anymore, even when referring to WW2 era Germany, as i realise that those who do use it on a near constant basis have little to no actual understanding or knowledge of whom it was originally used to refer.
employing terms of abuse,, as the liberal elements do, is a sign of an empty mind
Times full of racists, yeah.
Outstanding.
Telling the truth was classed as racism back in the olden days as well huh.
Enoch was 100 % right 2024 we seeing what happens if you open our borders.
Not a racist but a very eloquent, pragmatic, realist and educated man, he told it as it was and would become and he WAS NOT WRONG! If only the 'Governments' of the day had LISTENED to him!
“We now know that unless some drastic change happens large parts of many of our cities will, by the beginning of the next century, be occupied by a population which has nothing in common with the people of this country.”
Enoch Powell Politician 1971
His predictions have been proved right.
@@RestWithin if only people listened. Look at London and Birmingham now.
@@thatoneguychad420 - Bell-end...
@@analogueman123456787 😉
The government are the problem .they encourage immigrants
Enoch called it, now we're living in it.
He tried to warn us but they didn't listen
He wasn’t a racist man, he was a man who understood races. Very very clever human being.
he was racist he wanted black people to go back where they came from, and the children they had with white women he wanted those kids to leave.

As an Englishman living in France I agree wholeheartedly.

Enoch Powell, A British Hero, A Legend, The best politician Great Britain ever had, A man that spoke the Truth, but nobody listened and now we are paying the price, there should be a monument of him in London, Enoch Powell a Legend. ❤
It’s a bloody shame we can’t turn the clock back and believe in this man
Then turn the clock forward, there is proof now.
Enoch Powell was a politician who understood the implications of mass immigration & what that would mean to the indigenous people of the country. Many other politicians of that time also understood those implications but few were brave enough to voice their concerns & when Powell did, he was promptly thrown under the bus & labelled racist. He was spot on with his predictions & looking around the UK at this moment in time it is plain to see that by importing the third world, we are fast becoming the third world. If only people had listened.
😂😂😂 We are British Subjects 🇵🇰 🇵🇰 🇵🇰 🇵🇰 🇵🇰 🇵🇰 🇵🇰 ❤❤❤❤❤
@@kennyken4461 And just as a cat born in a stable is still a cat, anyone not of British stock will always be nothing more than an immigrant........🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴
And a dog living in a house is still a dog.
@@Smackemback66this is the third world. No gold no diamonds nothing but coal and that’s run out.
That doesn't work. Unlike people who can apply for citizenship, how would an animal magically change into another animal once it wanders into a kennel or a stable? Your theory is full of holes. A cat would have to magically change into a horse for your theory to be true! 😆 @@Smackemback66
We need loads of people like this today
Enoch knew the score all these years later he's 100% correct respect to him
I had the honour of meeting Enoch Powell in 1982 and he radiated intelligence and good sense.
I spent the first 32 years of my (British) life fighting against everything this man said. And the second 32 years of my life regretting my original beliefs and applauding what he said.
@@upturnedblousecollar5811 That's because when we were young we were susceptible to the propaganda which went into overdrive against Powell. Where as now, we see for ourselves the outcome he predicted. It might also have to do with increased cynicism as we mature.
@@upturnedblousecollar5811 I'm American but I can say the same thing as you on an ideological level. It took until I was 45 to see the error of my beliefs.

The most intelligent, honest and far sighted politician that ever lived and everything that he foretold has come to pass!
" Every city populated will in the future be populated by people that have no infinity with British Culture" Never a truer word said.
Lay the blame where it began - with the Labour Party and there " Commonwealth Act " passed through parliament with NO public consultation or referendum . Result, cities that have become ghettos, no go areas, crime of every sort, kind and description.
R.I.P Enoch Powell, a man that envisioned it all playing out, and that is exactly what we have today - a country that is all played out
Even though crime rates have gone down since then?
@@MetalCooking666 Where's your source?
@@Quadro2k where’s yours?
@@MetalCooking666 I was following on from your statement. So where does it say crime rates have gone down? Seeing as you're the one stating it :)
"Result, cities that have become ghettos, no go areas, crime of every sort"
Worse. Now it is *illegal* to protest the ethno-cultural genocide of England: the "Online-Safety™ Act" and "Hate Speech™" laws have made protest impossible. Britain is truly Orwellian now. It is no longer a free, sovereign nation> It is just another dying outpost of the New World Order run by 3rd world Satraps
you look at the way things panned out now and you realise now that EP was years ahead of his time
we need this man back today
He knew what was coming and he was spot on. Look around.

@@Flaps72 Another one obsessed with skin colour and fixated on it as the only issue at hand.
Extremely intelligent man who could call on his experience having served in the military, clearly made him a subject of envy by the resentful types. Thatcher was in awe of him.
Enoch Powell has had many labels over the years, but looking at the UK and Europe now, the only label that fits is: vindicated.
Its now 2023 go take a stroll through ..bradford , Birmingham, Manchester,london
How refreshing it is to hear a man speak his mind, unfortunately in today's society fear keeps everyone's opinions to themselves.
Cal Berkeley comes to mind on free speech using fear tactics.
Funny how he never spoke his mind to say those people who had nothing in common with British subjects shouldn't have been forcefully made British subjects by the British though isn't it? Almost as if he was happy as long as the empire only worked to benefit one group of it's subjects.
Shame though, that he was talking bollocks.
@@J.D.1.rubbish 😂
@@colinmcmbyou know he wadn
I met Enoch Powell once in about 1985. I asked him a question about the lecture he had just given and he spoke for a full five minutes entirely fluently. At the end of it he said “You will notice I did not answer your question - I merely analysed it...”, and walked off...
So surprising that a native English speaker would speak English fluently! He must have had such a big strong brain.
@@makslargu5799 - “fluent” means the ability to express oneself smoothly, effortlessly and gracefully. If you understood English - you’d know that...
@@doublepick Well said, Stewart !
@@doublepick Superb riposte! Made me laugh. Out loud, in fact.
In other words, he was a politician
That man could actually see the future he knew WOW
I must admit I was a teenager then and thought he was racist, but I dont now.
