Immigration Doomer, Enoch Powell, on This Day in History

This Day in History: English politician Enoch Powell was born on this day in 1912. All of these decades later, Enoch Powell is mainly known for one thing: his "Rivers of Blood" speech he made in 1968. He made the speech in reference to the dangers of immigration and multi-culturalism, and it is now remembered and mentioned as a Trojan Horse warning after each race riot. It was widely regarded in his own time, and for many it is prophetic. This speech was not the only mainstream attempt to bring this topic to the fore. Others are "The Death of the West" by Pat Buchanan, "The Strange Death of Europe" by Douglas Murray, "Submission" by Michel Houellebecq and "The Diversity Delusion" by Heather Macdonald.

"Fifty years on from the most dramatic post-war speech in Britain, this updated view is a VERY important part of the continuing debate. Enoch never goes away." Nigel Farage

"Enoch Powell Was Right, admits major German newspaper, Die Welt. Enoch was, btw, not only a great historian, linguist, and poet (in ancient Greek!), and a prophet on open borders, but he was sound on the free market, the gold standard, foreign interventionism, and much else. For daring to predict the effects of mass immigration, this brilliant orator and debater, destined to be prime minister, was stabbed in the back by neocon Margaret Thatcher and her henchmen like John Major. As a result, England is under migrant assault, as is Germany. Things don’t look good." Lew Rockwell

"Powell’s message was not just 'against the political correctness of the 1960s', it also offended the interests of British industry which wanted to import cheap labour. Pursuing that goal, the editorial contends, Britain like Germany did not at the time give attention to 'the idea of long-term consequences' and so suffers today." Oliver JJ Lane
