Even then his views were regarded as toxic. and yet Churchill could say that ''Islam in a man is worse than rabies in a dog'' with no consequence? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are misquoting Churchill . What he said was that Islamic extremists are similar to rabid dogs , he wasn't referring to ALL Muslims , just the extremists 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the trouble and was one of Powell's points about the use of the word racist. I have what would be called by others racist views but I would only commenting on how I feel about something or someone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll call everyone who is a racist a racist. Racists are scum. Only racists think Churchill was not a racist. btw. Trump praised Hitler.

Mac Mickmanus Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 4 minutes ago, ozimoron said: You singled out one thing that Powell said that was reasonable on the surface... without further context. You did not mention the egregious comments he made which caused him to get sacked and made him the political pariah that he remained until Trump made racism acceptable again. That is cherry picking. The whole speech was about the subject of the UKs immigration rules and laws and whether immigration rules were necessary , Do you agree with Enoch that the U,K should have immigration rules or should 2 and a half billion commonwealth citizens be able to live in the UK as British citizens ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
