It has been 50 years since British shadow defence secretary Enoch Powell gave his “rivers of blood” speech on April 20, 1968. To mark the half-centenary, the BBC broadcast his speech for the first time in full, on the radio. The decision caused outrage from those who would rather the speech, and its popularity at the time, was forgotten. Some 74% of Britons in the aftermath of Powell’s rhetoric agreed with him – that black immigration was likely to cause violence on our streets in the not too distant future, or as he put it – “In this country in 15 or 20 years’ time the black man will have the whip hand over the white man.” The Violence hasn’t come yet, and I hope it doesn’t, but the Politicians are continuing to Ignore the Masses, that is not sustainable.
