“The indigenous population were never asked” what the last 50 years worth of stupidity of politicians has done to this once proud mighty nation is beyond belief
Most of them are stupid and don't understand the consequence of what they were part of. But I think a fair number knew exactly what the problem is, but did it anyway because they are corrupt, cowards, and traitors to the public and their position. I've had sympathy for the public because their entire view of the world is created by BBC and ITV. That explains why they think things are changing so quickly nowadays and it's hard to keep up with all the craziness. But when I think about this speech and the date of it... I feel annoyed at the public too. This speech was not a vague warning, this was a career ending rant. He was on the verge of shouting, almost through the entire 23 minutes! It's a very bold and aggressively stated rant, personal, and then with evidence and predictions, and then a story from one of his own constituents. So to me it's less of a warning and more of a last resort. He had already seen the problems for decades, even by this point in 1968. He is referring to changes that occurred in the 1930s. So this had been 30+ years of experience for him, and this was his last stand. To think this happened 60 years ago, it makes it hard for me to find sympathy with the public and their slow grasp of the changes all around them. But I also understand that what gets called woke now is something that's been brewing for a century at least.
It was not stupidity, it is a big obvious plot going back almost a century and is affecting USA, Canada, UK, Australia, and parts of EU all at the same time and in the same way.

@@24zelock Devils advocate for a more balanced approach... A nation who has carved the way for the technological, societal, health, architectural (the list goes on) advancements that benefit every one of us in todays modern society. People are short sighted to think the whole story is defined by that of the bloodshed. A lot of the countries gone under occuptation were by the way, if not already killing each other in endless civil wars, were at the mercy of other nations such as the Portuguese (I know who I'd prefer). I suppose those nations should have been left with no law system, rely on homeopathic conjuring health remedies, stuck with their primordial educational systems. That isn't denying wrongs have been committed, but it, like any other part of history, is a multi faceted story, with lots of angles. With any positive there is a negative. But I am sick of the demonization toward people for loving their own country and its history, sometimes even by immigrants who it offered a hand to eat from. Im very proud of many aspects of British History like the OP. We are in many ways, the forebearers of modern society as we know it. Only to be summarised as a criminal nation, what a pitiful observation.

But the climate and culture these days is "white man bad".. Everyone should be proud of who they are, where they come from etc.. Except us here, the native population of the UK!!.. It's virtuous to champion, encourage, help or protect all these ppl of different races, cultures or life choices.. They get every benefit, as much help as possible, and it's seen the right thing to do.. But....... .................. Why is our country and it's native population and people not to be protected!??.. As Enoch explains, small inflow of new ppl to a nation is more than acceptable, they are assimilated etc.. But massive amounts of immigration damages the native culture!!.. It's clear as day it causes massive change, and can bring many problems, that wouldn't occur if it was controlled etc!.. White ppl are seemingly the only ppl these days it is acceptable to be racist towards.. To undermine or work against etc.. It's pretty much seen as a good thing by some!.. But.. It would be an outrage if this was happening anywhere else or to anyone else but us here!.. Tell me I'm wrong.. 😢
He speaks so eloquently and it is such a pleasure to hear English spoken so well. Sadly much of what he says is misunderstood. Exactly due to the fact, that most people do not listen to understand but rather to reply with their own preconceived ideas. Also, no doubt, that they simply do not understand English spoken in its proper form.
A situation any of us born before the 80's find increasingly distressing. The more accurately and simpler one speaks, the more it is misconstrued. The dumbing down of English language and ignorance of English culture is no accident
This government is a fucking mess we will revolt soon I can see it coming and don't take that "an insisted " comment you yuppie cunts the government is failing in so many ways its unreal there will be no more England if things carry on don't mean to moan but sometimes things need to be said and that hero giving that speech has proved it
Literally remember what enoch powell said, that he was facing against the most difficult instinct of all politicians, to commit to actions that will have large immediate implications but will prevent long lasting yet grander conflict.
Wow o wow,this is the first time i have ever heard this speech.oh my god,this is exactly,what us happening now,thus man had so much foresight,its incredible

You are in a world of your own and people like you are what's wrong with this country. Have you been out and counted them all? Or are you using some do gooders figures?
Full respect to you Mr Powell. Never a truer speech been spoken. I only hope you’re not turning in your grave. If only you had been listened to,. This country that I once fought for would be a much better place. Would I do it again ? Simply NO !. And I’m sure many other service men who served along side me knowing how this country would be today would give the same answer. Our streets and neighbourhoods are so unsafe today because of immigrants and a totally disrespectful generation. Rest In Peace Mr Powell. Eventually one day when it’s to late, those in Westminster might wake up and realise just what a wonderful British country we once had, not to mention all those that have fallen fighting for it. 🍺
He was truly the one with the backbone and truth and honesty, one hell of a bloody good PRIME MINISTER this country, our country needed, ONE HELL OF A MAN,
You were a country of looters, an empire built on shameful plunder, and theft … of the very people who you so shamelessly impoverished with your colonial atrocities that these very people had to leave their lands and immigrate to colonial demonic countries like yours … and now that these immigrants are faring much better than you dumb pale skinned ‘locals’ purely based on superior skils n knowledge and hard work, you idiots now cry wolf !! SHAME on you and your ilk 🤮
How are our streets unsafe because of immigrants? if anything our streets are unsafe FOR immigrants, from 1948-1980, there was countless race riots. The police even planted drugs and used 'Sus' laws in order to condemn innocent people
This man was ahead of his time. What he predicted has come to pass. We need a man like this in British politics today, to run for PM and restore logic, common sense and to end and reverse the cancer of mass immigration.
A new record of illegal immigrants came in yesterday. If you multiply this number over a year its 540,000. The UK simply cannot cope with this number its completely broken already.
This is chilling because he is right because we have already lost this country London has been lost for years and it’s spreading and we can’t even do anything about it .😢
Enoch wasnt completely anti-immigration. He was against immigration in vast numbers from cultures who had no interest in integration. His language may appear harsh nowadays but it was relatively normal back then. When migrants began to expect special treatment it was recognised by Enoch as the start of a steep slope downward into what we have today. Agitators and campaigners who march on to their own demise. He'd have broke through to the mainstream if he hadn't have been so overtly honestly.
The unique quality of Enoch Powell was that he knew full well what policies must be done today...to save tomorrow ! They didn't listen to him & virtually exiled him for speaking the truth !
LOL I love how you can't find any vestige of his speech anywhere. It's almost as if those in power don't want you listening to his stirring words. By the way, EP had nearly 85% support when he made this speech according to polls of native British. There is a very real possibility that had Elizabeth appointed him as PM that we would have today a very different Britain, probably a better Britain.
What a man im 70 now so i remember enoch i have never voted tory what he said then you can see happening now if only people listened rip mr powell a great loss
It's only fair to mention his faults as well though mate. Two big ones stand out to me. 1. He was a racist. 2. He was wrong in his predictions about the rivers of blood. It just didn't happen. And seeing as that was his most famous prediction, it is a bit embarrassing for his memory.
@@daryllcornier4509Jesus mate, this is not rocket science. He was a racist because he spent his life ranting about black people.

Unfortunately unless it's done by a mass collective of English men supporting and being supported by our British brothers throughout Britain I can't see an individual coming along and inspiring anybody, people have tried to warn us since since this speech and they get demonised they disappear most people are unwilling to admit they agree with them certainly in public, until that changes nothing will.

@@darrengrimmer8541 Ironically the population of the time were very probably largely in agreement with Powell. Certainly people over 35/40 Thing is a lot of the folk on here singing Powell's praises now, were those who at the time did largely ignore and even pillory him, ie the then still young boomers. The older folk of his day, especially his contemporaries, largely regardless of social status and wider politics etc were I figure mostly in tune with his message. But it was for most folk just not a make or break voting issue. One of the most amazing things you learn if you actually listen to the speech (how many singing it's praises on here have actually listened to all of it?) is that effectively ending immigration and indeed also a funded voluntary repatriation scheme appear to have been official Tory Party policy when he made the speech. But this serves only to demonstrate that for more than 50 years the Tories have repeatedly talked tough on immigration and essentially done nothing but talk. Why? Mostly because it was never truly an issue that would win or loose a Westminster election. Add in that the whole UK voting system says you can promise the moon on a raft of things then deliver nothing on most of them and folk will still vote you back into power. The now old post war baby boomers are the important demographic who ignored Powell at the time. They are also the ones who consistently didn't vote for folk who actually might have done something about Immigration for next 4 to 5 decades. They are as well the generation who started the birth rate decline. It's a bit rich now hailing Powell, nearly 60 years after he made, what at the time wasn't really a speech that was very much out of step with the majority of the British public. The time to act if there was a time was then. The problem was the issue was not high profile enough for enough folk for any mainstream Parties to actually do more than talk tuff. And the Electoral system prevented the more committed from gaining any traction, even at local levels.
He was a very brave man …. and now as I walk through the streets of a smaller city just 2 hours from London walking down the high streets I hear scores of different languages . Very few British ppl : mostly Asians and Africans and now many millions of EU citizens. They call it a multicultural society but I call it a Babylon ! It’s not working and many of these mostly Africans / Jamaicans speak a gobeldegooks type of horrible English : many of them live in state benefits or live off the British tax player

@@richardloach610 London is minority white british now, same thing with many of the english cities. The english identity and history is being dissolved and co-opted, and the equality act is being used to advantage non-english people and discriminate against english people. Many of the immigrants are not being assimilated because the numbers that are coming in are creating forces that encourages them to NOT integrate. Everything he said is true.
Integration failed. Some immigrants love and respect the opportunities that the UK has provided them, but most seem to not care in the slightest and their actions and behaviour shows that. I moved to London a few years ago, and it’s a mess.
"When she refused, she was abused and afraid she wouldve been attacked". As an American one thing ive always liked about the british is they dont mix words. We use so many words interchangeably that their meanings become lost or synonymous with other words either because people want to downplay what theyre describing or dramaticize it skewing the words interpretation. When someones going about their business and is set upon by someone begging for money and begins getting belligerent and insulting people have been essentially conditioned to tolerate it as if its normal acceptable behavior. If people now a days identify that behavior using a word it would just be called "bothering" as opposed to what it should be called which is "abuse"
He was simply saying that someone had said that, he wasn't a racist, he was just saying that we can't afford to let in the whole world.. he was correct, the place is a shit hole, full of unhappy people, I'm all for helping people but we can't bail out the whole world !
Pray tell, when was the UK not a shit hole full of unhappy people? During WW1, WW2, the 18th Century when the working class lived in dyer poverty and was riddled with disease, during the plague or during serfdom??? Asking for a friend.
If only they had listened to him then. I’m old enough to have been there then and supported him. He was a brilliant man. Why don’t we have leaders like him.

People are short sighted to think the whole story is defined by that of the bloodshed. A lot of the countries gone under occuptation were by the way, if not already killing each other in endless civil wars, were at the mercy of other nations such as the Portuguese (I know who I'd prefer). I suppose those nations should have been left with no law system, rely on homeopathic conjuring health remedies, stuck with their primordial educational systems. That isn't denying wrongs have been committed, but it, like any other part of history, is a multi faceted story, with lots of angles.
With any positive there is a negative. But I am sick of the demonization toward people for loving their own country and its history, sometimes even by immigrants who it offered a hand to eat from.

It's ramped up so much this past generation..
It's gone so much further, and happened a lot sooner than he ever imagined!..
And don't anyone dare say I'm racist posting this, here etc..
I love people, i appreciate and repeat other ethnicities, cultures and the differences between us all..
But the climate and culture these days is "white man bad"..
Everyone should be proud of who they are, where they come from etc..
Except us here, the native population of the UK!!..
It's virtuous to champion, encourage, help or protect all these ppl of different races, cultures or life choices..
They get every benefit, as much help as possible, and it's seen the right thing to do..
But.......

Why is our country and it's native population and people not to be protected!??..
As Enoch explains, small inflow of new ppl to a nation is more than acceptable, they are assimilated etc..
But massive amounts of immigration damages the native culture!!..
It's clear as day it causes massive change, and can bring many problems, that wouldn't occur if it was controlled etc!..
White ppl are seemingly the only ppl these days it is acceptable to be racist towards..
To undermine or work against etc..

He speaks so eloquently and it is such a pleasure to hear English spoken so well. Sadly much of what he says is misunderstood. Exactly due to the fact, that most people do not listen to understand but rather to reply with their own preconceived ideas. Also, no doubt, that they simply do not understand English spoken in its proper form.

They did. He was hugely popular with the electorate back then. It was the politicians who got rid of him.
Literally remember what enoch powell said, that he was facing against the most difficult instinct of all politicians, to commit to actions that will have large immediate implications but will prevent long lasting yet grander conflict.
Wow o wow,this is the first time i have ever heard this speech.oh my god,this is exactly,what us happening now,thus man had so much foresight,its incredible

Simply NO !.

Eventually one day when it’s to late, those in Westminster might wake up and realise just what a wonderful British country we once had, not to mention all those that have fallen fighting for it. 🍺

One of the greatest Prime Ministers who never was, together with John Smith...
The numbers he spoke of are just a fraction of the current reality!
This man was ahead of his time. What he predicted has come to pass. We need a man like this in British politics today, to run for PM and restore logic, common sense and to end and reverse the cancer of mass immigration.
A new record of illegal immigrants came in yesterday. If you multiply this number over a year its 540,000.
The UK simply cannot cope with this number its completely broken already.
Unless you are only okay with a net negative, then you don't have the resolve you need.

Enoch wasnt completely anti-immigration. He was against immigration in vast numbers from cultures who had no interest in integration. His language may appear harsh nowadays but it was relatively normal back then. When migrants began to expect special treatment it was recognised by Enoch as the start of a steep slope downward into what we have today. Agitators and campaigners who march on to their own demise. He'd have broke through to the mainstream if he hadn't have been so overtly honestly.
The unique quality of Enoch Powell was that he knew full well what policies must be done today...to save tomorrow ! They didn't listen to him & virtually exiled him for speaking the truth !

@@alsoascot02 The people of the time
@@darrengrimmer8541 Ironically the population of the time were very probably largely in agreement with Powell. Certainly people over 35/40
Thing is a lot of the folk on here singing Powell's praises now, were those who at the time did largely ignore and even pillory him, ie the then still young boomers. The older folk of his day, especially his contemporaries, largely regardless of social status and wider politics etc were I figure mostly in tune with his message. But it was for most folk just not a make or break voting issue.
One of the most amazing things you learn if you actually listen to the speech (how many singing it's praises on here have actually listened to all of it?) is that effectively ending immigration and indeed also a funded voluntary repatriation scheme appear to have been official Tory Party policy when he made the speech.
But this serves only to demonstrate that for more than 50 years the Tories have repeatedly talked tough on immigration and essentially done nothing but talk.
Why? Mostly because it was never truly an issue that would win or loose a Westminster election. Add in that the whole UK voting system says you can promise the moon on a raft of things then deliver nothing on most of them and folk will still vote you back into power.
The now old post war baby boomers are the important demographic who ignored Powell at the time.
They are also the ones who consistently didn't vote for folk who actually might have done something about Immigration for next 4 to 5 decades. They are as well the generation who started the birth rate decline.
It's a bit rich now hailing Powell, nearly 60 years after he made, what at the time wasn't really a speech that was very much out of step with the majority of the British public.
The time to act if there was a time was then.
The problem was the issue was not high profile enough for enough folk for any mainstream Parties to actually do more than talk tuff. And the Electoral system prevented the more committed from gaining any traction, even at local levels.
Dear god. Everything he foresaw came correct
He was a very brave man …. and now as I walk through the streets of a smaller city just 2 hours from London walking down the high streets I hear scores of different languages . Very few British ppl : mostly Asians and Africans and now many millions of EU citizens. They call it a multicultural society but I call it a Babylon !

"When she refused, she was abused and afraid she wouldve been attacked".
As an American one thing ive always liked about the british is they dont mix words. We use so many words interchangeably that their meanings become lost or synonymous with other words either because people want to downplay what theyre describing or dramaticize it skewing the words interpretation. When someones going about their business and is set upon by someone begging for money and begins getting belligerent and insulting people have been essentially conditioned to tolerate it as if its normal acceptable behavior. If people now a days identify that behavior using a word it would just be called "bothering" as opposed to what it should be called which is "abuse"
