People use the word "racist" too readily these days for anyone who is even slightly critical of immigration, multiculturalism or other cultures and religions. This has stifled political debate on important issues and promoted the rise of the far right views.
Enoch Powell, a former professor was an intellectual giant in politics and his views on immigration caused much controversy among the politically-correct elite.
Here a journalist interviewing Enoch Powell asks him whether he is a "racialist" for his outspoken views on immigration and multiculturalism.
Enoch replies "I don't know what race is. I don't know for example whether if there were 4 or 5 million Germans in this country, would that be a different race? We used to talk about the British race as compared to the French. I don't know what it means. Indeed I doubt if it has got a scientific meaning. "
The journalist goes on to ask Enoch if he accepts the phrases "racial-integration" and "racial-discrimination". Enoch responds with "No. If I don't know what the noun means, I will have even greater difficulty with the adjective".
legend.

Enoch Powell MBE, greatest politician ever. He told them ... they did not listen. Look at the state of our country now. In the 50's and 60's UK was great nation forged on a mighty industry by proud and true Brits. If we had an internal problem we dealt with it. Racism was a dispicable act by thugs called P**i bashing in the 60's. These days you can not even look at a foreigner the wrong way and your racist. This is a dictatorship society. A failed Government experiment gone badly wrong.

@871yt Yeah notice how the Biased-BBC were up to their propaganda and brainwashing tricks even right back in the 60s and 70s.There was a movement even larger calling for Enoch to become the next prime minister and the country was very much divided over the issue. Enoch was marginalised out of mainstream politics by the elite who wanted to push ahead with their agenda.
