WHY WE NOW ECHO ENOCH

Sunday November 11,2007

By Neil Hamilton

HALESOWEN Tories should revolt at the sacking of their candidate, Nigel Hastilow, for saying, “Enoch was right”.

He was. And nearly everybody thinks so, especially in places most affected by immigration such as the West Midlands. None of the main parties will tell the truth. No wonder the BNP is picking up votes.

The spineless response of the Tory leadership proves their recent conversion from windmill-loving and hoodie-hugging is only skin-deep.

They are still miles away from connecting with ordinary people, whose cities have been overwhelmed by immigrants who will neither integrate nor accept our culture. Margaret Thatcher harvested many of her votes because she articulated the fear of being “swamped” by alien cultures. Who speaks for England now?

Enoch Powell was my friend for 30 years. He was no racist. He entered politics in devotion to the Indian Empire and was so saturated in its culture, he qualified as an interpreter in Urdu. He rebelled against the Macmillan Government over atrocities against African detainees at Hola Camp in Kenya in 1959.

But Powell saw mass immigration would create problems. In “That Speech” in 1968, he said, “As I look ahead I am filled with foreboding. Like the Roman, I seem to see the river Tiber foaming with much blood.”

The Roman was Virgil, whom Powell (a former Classics professor) quoted in the original Latin: “Et Thybrim multo spumantem sanguine cerno.” Powell feared a backlash from the scale and speed of immigrant settlement in concentrated areas.

Immigration is out of control and millions of indigenous Britons feel like foreigners in their own country. Even Gordon Broon recognises this. A few weeks ago, posing as leader of the Brownish National Party, he promised “British jobs for British workers.”

SEARCH COLUMNISTS for:


All spin and lies, of course. EU law, which Broon wants to extend without a referendum, stops us deciding who we want to let into this country.

Two weeks ago, Cabinet Minister Peter Hain (himself an undesirable immigrant) came clean, admitting 1.1 million foreign nationals have taken jobs here since 1997, not 300,000 as previously claimed.

The Office for National Statistics says it is 1.5 million. Governments have routinely deceived the British people about mass immigration. Those, like Enoch, who campaigned to close the door, were abused as fantasists and racists.

Yet, if we had had a referendum 40 years ago, how many of us would have voted to transform our great cities into colonies of foreign cultures?

In the Sixties and Seventies politicians lied about “New Commonwealth” immigration. Now, it is Europe. Tony B Liar said only 13,000 Eastern Europeans would come here when their countries joined the EU in 2004.

At least 700,000 have arrived already! Rampant illegal immigration and over-staying means the Government has no idea of the true figure.

Make an investment following grotesquely inaccurate claims and you get your money back. Sadly, we can’t get our country back so easily.

In a blinding revelation that the best way to win Tory votes is to sound like a Tory, not a Liberal, “Dave” Cameron temporarily jumped on the bandwagon, promising immigration must “come down substantially”.

Believe it when you see it. A short time ago, his acolytes dubbed the Tories the “Nasty Party” because Michael Howard campaigned hard on immigration in the 2005 General Election. The Hastilow case has revealed Cameron’s true colours again.

Britain (actually, England) is over-crowded. Gerard Batten, UKIP’s excellent MEP for London, reveals England is the most densely populated of the world’s top 10 economies. It has 999 people per square mile – compared with 878 in Japan, 809 in India and only 355 in China. Germany has 600, France 284 and the USA a mere 81.

Official estimates predict our population will rise from 61million today to 71million in 2031. We can’t blame migrants for wanting to come here. Poles, Czechs and other Eastern Europeans are hard-working and culturally assimilable. I studied Russian at school and university. I have Polish relatives and Christine has a Polish god-daughter.

But immigration is principally a question of numbers. Our major cities have become a kaleidoscope of ghettos, co-existing but not coalescing. Manchester University demographers forecast that, by 2011 Leicester will be the first British city where Brits are a minority. Birmingham will follow by 2027.

On current trends, ethnic Britons will cease to be the majority group in Britain sometime in the next century.

Would you vote for that? Don’t worry, the politicians won’t ask you to.

The BNP is the only party/organisation that supports indigenous Britons.
When indigenous Britons, including members of the British National Party are allowed membership of the hundreds of ethnic-only and Muslim-only organisations, then the BNP might consider reciprocating.
But since it isn't going to happen for the reasons you understand, the issue is a non-starter.
You might as well ask why the media and the liblabcon blanks the BNP.
Its simple - anti-white racism!

THE CULTURE OF OUR NATION

18.11.07, 3:50pm

Unfortunately many people do not fully realise that a common cultural background is what makes a nation.

For the BNP to ensure that British Culture survives, then the people making the decisions on party policy must come from an indegenous ethnic background.

If, however, honest, decent, law abiding non-whites living in this land want a government which will be harsh on crime and tough on terrorism regardless of the racial background of said criminals, then they are most welcome to vote BNP.

Indeed, many of them already do, as our inner city canvassers will readily explain.

OF COURSE ENOCH WAS RIGHT.

18.11.07, 9:49am

Neil Hamilton is another one of the few brave men, intelligent enough to see and say what is the true picture.
Sadly, there is no political party capable of making any difference.
UKIP's leadership will spout a few platitudes to placate it's membership but skirts around the main issues which threaten this country.
The BNP, with brilliant policies will not allow brown or black-skinned British people to become members. Apart from the fact that it is white skinned British who are the traitors here, very soon the EU will illegalise the BNP, it has been a handy tool so far to split eurosceptic votes, but not for much longer. Italy's head of state boldly stated that eu sceptics are 'terrorists'.
I can only beg the BNP to open it's membership to true Brits of all shades, the EU would then find it quite difficult to detain so many 'terrorists' in a legal political party.
Briain is being privatised in all areas at a fantastic speed. We have to act now, together, or just see our country disappear.

WHY WE NOW ECHO ENOCH

18.11.07, 6:43am

Enoch Powell was a much maligned man after his 'rivers of blood' speech.How very sad that after his death,he has now been proved right.Even though I was very young at the time,I remember my Grandfather and Father discussing this issue. Very shortly OUR ethnic population will be in the minority,we are already over-ruled in many matters because of the PC brigade. This is a CHRISTIAN country,and any person coming to live here should respect OUR religion, not expect us to let their beliefs over-ride ours.Immigration should cease forthwith,we have nowhere to put any more non-indigenous people.We cannot provide sufficient housing for our own kin,let alone immigrants who are allowed to go to the top of the list and trample on our children to get there.There are countries with plenty of space,United States and Australia, to name two,where immigrants could build their lives and homes.WE ARE FULL!

Enoch was right and Nick Griffin is right.

There'll be no second chance this time though, and time is running out!

WELL SAID

I have to congratulate the Express for printing articles that no other paper dares to - that is, articles that us British natives actually agree with!

I know so many people who are saying, "Enoch was right." (those that haven't fled abroad anyway) and are really fed up with the lies from politicians and the media in general, that we've all decided to vote for the British National Party from now on.

We wouldn't have done so five years ago, but they're the only party speaking the truth these days.
