Watching this in 2023 makes me realise the freedom of speech and thought that we have lost in this country.
Very true, I was thinking that as well. Heck, they even had level-headed interviews with literal fascists like Oswald Mosely and the result was a better understanding of the issues.
@@user-ls8ks7kv8c put this one in your search bar: The Mitford sisters | Lady Diana Mosley interview | Oswald Mosley |Good Afternoon
Me too I don’t agree with either 100 percent but im flabbergasted they’re actually allowed to have the conversation
Same here!
Yea the world is a joke now a terrible tragedy or a great comedy depending on your philosophy.
When he ,Enoc , defended the rights of the Kenyan people’s he was a hero, when he defended the rights of indigenous Brits he was a villain, nuff said.
Exactly the Hola camp and people who heard that speech say it was the finest speech they ever heard ,great point Andy mac
One of the greatest speeches. And so few know about it, too.
Nuff said, eh? Remind us again, these Kenyan's invite some white people to their country to do menial work and they thought they were under attack? Have I got that right? The "nuff said" just about sums up bigots like you who can't think beyond their racist noses.
White people are not allowed their own lands.
@@worldpeace8299 do you know what's going on in South Africa nowadays?
A robust, almost confrontational yet always civilised, but never personal debate indeed. Excellent display of what today is lacking
They were too busy worrying about Caribbean people who spoke English, similar culture and same religion. A Black Australian if you will (not Aboriginal). That they ignored all the other groups because they have more Eurocentric features, but not mentality or religion. Britain/Europe is feeling it now. 🤣
@@miamitten1123 mass imagination wasn't as bad back then, there wasn't really an alert. Now it's around 6 million immigrants that consist in England's total population.
You’re just looking in the wrong places.
Don’t compare Britain then with Britain now
Just don’t
The most chilling observation for me is that a debate like this is utterly impossible these days in the MSM of the West. Truly tragic.
Very true, but in fact it was also nearly impossible back then. There was no desire to confront the negatives aspects of mass immigration by what you'd call the 'mainstream'. Even back then, people could and were 'cancelled' for merely stating obvious facts.
@@plainjane2474 That is complete nonsense. The New Right adopted a profoundly racist stance RE: South Africa. Racist policies were entirely mainstream in the 1970's. You are just making things up. Stupidity is dangerous.
It literally happens all the time, people just aren’t generally as racist as Powell was and generally know how frowned upon racism is now compared to then
@@thomashall2753 lmao
Just propaganda and slander now.
When people could discuss anything without being threatened with jail.
When the British were truly allowed to be themselves.
White British men were able to say what they thought
@@paddybroderick I still do
@@leemillard5514 Are you going to the cenotaph on Sunday? I hope so. 🏴🇬🇧👍🏽
That sad part is that what he argued against is partly due to the reason why you can't talk like this anymore.
What got me was how intelligently they both put forth their arguments and allowed each other to at least finish.
@paddybroderick the news and politics is so bad now. Look at the school shooter in America. They tried hiding the fact that that trans monster purely went out to kill white people(kids).
It's frightening and chilling to see how accurate Powell was, he saw it while the others were sleeping.
It is a consequence of British imperialism. Nobody in the Indian/Pakistani sub-continent asked the English to go there. The chickens came home to roost.
I'm 'white,' 60 and live in a very multicultural UK city, I don't think things have turned out that badly at all. My Pakistani decent neighbours are generous and charming with very well behaved, sweet natured children. Think this contrived 'issue' concerns areas of the country that are predominantly white much more than cities like mine.
@@alexharrison9340 And one day you'll wake up and those "well behaved" Pakis will demand that you stop consuming (say) alcohol because now they are the majority. One day you'll find yourself a foreigner in your own country. I hope you'll enjoy it.
@@FranciscoSmirsley I'll never be a foreigner on my own planet.
@@alexharrison9340 Sadly, Alex, the exclusivity intensifiers that adhere and dig their heels in are a long time dying out. Sagan suspected seeing their disintegration at an increasing pace in the early 80s. The process still ongoing, after a resurgence of fanaticism, I suspect we're in for worsening turmoil to follow. Miller was correct in his analysis. Human beings are very easily led by charismatic mesmerists. Sadly, even the socially inept ones. Out of Jonathan Miller and Powell, I know which I would rather spend an afternoon's conversation with. The one who is a deeper, more philosophical thinker and not a rabble rouser.
how refreshing to see a debate whilst still being respectful

Well done Dick Cavett on allowing these two guests to speak without interruption. Never seen this clip but it is fascinating
how journalism should be.
My comment was about the journalistic professionalism of the presenter, not the views of Knocker.
And now we see the left promoting euthanasia like Canada see Powell was right. if you put an invasive species in an environment and it thrives it will take over that what's happening to Britain.
Definitely the Enoch Show🇬🇧💪
True...imagine piers Morgan hosting....guest never get a wording with him
Imagine being able to have this conversation on mainstream TV now.
God what an amazing point and alas we'll never see another politican like him ever again .
Ignore the TV my friend. We only need to talk like this to each other.
Racist!....... end of conversation
@@TheNobullman I think the term youre looking for is xenophobic 😂

This is the level of intellectualism i would like to see on tv.

@@paullacey2999 true. Both are extremely intellectual and articulate themselves amazingly. Left or right, this type of intellectual i want to hear.
I again come to reply and again stuck in this video. Paul Ennoch’s view is not a view that i share but he has the best arguments to convince and he puts it in a so civil way and makes you think on the issue. This is the type of politician i want to see both left and right. Not a pack of fools who run around like chickens with no head.
Currently this is only found either on RUclips, Rumble and few and far between in tv
This is what is called true free speech. Honest and open debate. Never to be seen again. Very sad.
The UK has never had freedom of speech. They all could have been arrested for this. It didn't used to happen in the past because of socio-political reasons, but that's changed.

Logical and so so accurate. Look at the state of British cities now. Riddled with poverty and crime from all over the world.
Have you forgotten all the crimes the British have committed throughout their violent history? Unless you reject your past you have no right to complain about the present.
@djo-dji6018 I have every right. Asking people of the present for an apology regarding the past is the statement of a complete idiot... a past that no doubt didn't even affect anybody today too. People love being victims today.

Way too intelligent and tolerant of a conversation for today's time.
The Jonathan Miller's of the world play a huge role in why we can no longer have these conversations. They lost the debate so driven by hatred continue to obtain power to destroy us.
Enoch? If so no he wasn’t...
Yep, thats what you guys lost, while trying to save the world with democracy, feminizm, sexizm, racizm, and transgendarizm.
You couldn't have made your misunderstanding of the whole debate any clearer... *facepalm*
Saying that some American cities are occupied by immigrants and their descendants isn't intelligent.
I imagine a lot of native Americans would consider it to be very uninformed indeed.
Oh how refreshing to hear the English language spoken so elliquently by these two gentlemen. The garbage that is spoken on today's programs is a sad reflection of losing the English language.
Beautiful isn't it...i could listen to Enoch all day.
its negroidisation of english language, that's what you hear today.
@@twonkey1 Oh yeah, "woke" this "woke" that... If you want a perennial showcase of eloquent and erudite interlocutors espousing their illuminating outlooks, you'd definitely want to tune into GB News where "Can women have p*nises" is at the vanguard of their cultural concerns. To be fair, Enoch Powell is not exactly any better.
I fairness to GB news and Talk tv, they're refreshing to watch as they have and express their own opinions, unlike the pandering, scare mongering idiots on channels like BBC, ITV, SKY.
The presenters aren't afraid of being outspoken.
I love eilliquence.
Enoch was a prophet as well as an intellectual. Miller raises a good point about difference in appearance being the fear factor, yet one simply has to look at the news any day of the week for the last 50 years and you can see it's not appearance, but behaviour.
as still primitive mammalian beings we still are wired to recognise different or unusual as - possible threat and dont realise we let that become an overiding factor in our judgment
We just see it as potentially dangerous and act accordingly not giving it a second thought
and that has become dangerous in itself :/
I think the horribe truth is that appearance and behavior have far more correlation than modern, "enlightened," Westerners want to believe.
Right now its ideology
Yet being fearful, distressed or alarmed at someone's behaviour may get them arrested for causing fear.
Exactly not race but culture, not skin colour but behaviour
His conversation could not happen today on TV, amazing how patient they both are and have a great discussion about this issue.
This is a prime evidence of how our society's average IQ has declined.
Nobody would watch it. English people prefer celebrities dancing and quiz shows as well as shooting and car chases.

The quality of people back then, far outweighs that of today. Enoch recognised the problems on the horizon, and oh how he has been proven correct. A visionary.
need an ENOCH or two in todays government
They all knew. It was so obvious a child could see it. The problem was not lack of vision so much as utter cowardice. Bonhoeffer was quite right in his assessment of such things.
Tourism great, colonialism bad. Why would dark skin people want to move to rainy, cold northern areas where they have no spiritual love of the land. Conquest?
It was clear for decades before this.

As a politician, Enoch Powell didn’t put the thoughts into people’s minds, but rather reflected the feelings and emotions of his constituents and put them into the words that they felt unable to utter aloud for fear of reprisals.
They were too busy worrying about Caribbean people who spoke English, similar culture and same religion. A Black Australian if you will (not Aboriginal). That they ignored all the other groups because they have more Eurocentric features, but not mentality or religion. Britain/Europe is feeling it now. 🤣

Oh how they laughed. They're not laughing now.

The closer they push us to the cliff the more they want to blind us at the front and mute us from warning those behind us being pushed into that very same abyss.

If he was alive today, his bank accounts would be closed his youtube channel shut down along with his Facebook page, and he would be sitting in a jail .All for speaking the truth . I bend my knee to him
Enoch was totally right & the truth was always self evident.
He has been proven correct on almost every assertion he made.
@@garymac5571 And to think how he was ostracized by the politicians and elites who sought to destroy the culture of Britain. Those who speak the truth are almost always attacked as Enoch was.
I love how Dick lets them speak without interruption.
Indeed! What could he possibly add?
He's very like Michael Parkinson, a famous uk chat show host on at the same time. He let his guests speak.
He reminds me of Piers....same school of journalism
@@craigk621 Piers aka Mr interrupter?
Dick listens regardless if he agrees with them or not. Nowadays the presenter's are consumed with their own opinions that they wouldn't even know if the guest was even agreeing with them.
Two people with different and sometimes conflicting views, able to discuss matters intelligently and respectfully without a hint of personal insult or abuse. Something has definitely changed since then.
What has changed is that the mainstream media has become a psyop. Designed to pit factions against factions. Powell is delivering a compelling, intelligent discussion. Not a hint of racism. Just a stark depiction of reality. The truth is in what has transpired since. American cities are in ruins. The populations that inhabit them have failed on their own volition to "evolve".
I do not see a conflict in views here other than attitude!
The Miller guy was sneaky and manipulative
The insults from Miller to Powell were numerous and nasty.
@@donbudge6706 " Not a hint of racism."

In my early teens, my father, would say, listen to this man and his words.

This is a very tense conversation.... and may never really happen again in the current late night circuit
Real Time maybe. Sam Harris/Ben Affleck springs to mind.
@@zaprese If you're comparing a Sam Harris/Ben Affleck exchange to any conversation/debate/interaction that involved Mr. Enoch Powell, then things have really sunk to an all-time low.
This level of discussion will never be allowed to happen again.
Powell was the last genuinely Conservative MP Britain ever had. The Tories now are money grubbing leeches who conserve nothing, quite the opposite in fact.
"I take my share of the blame for it"
I'm 42 and I don't recall ever hearing a British politician ever having the integrity to utter those words. (Regardless of what Powell stood for).
You only need to look at who is running our country now to see how far we have slid into the abyss.Lies and hypocrisy made paramount.....
Me to,I'm 70 try to imagine the changes I have witnessed
Mr Miller can’t help himself my English cousins. I watch from the American South and I shudder at the thought. There will be rivers of blood.
And now look at the state of the UK. Its easy to tell who was correct in this debate.
Enoch was definitely able to see into the future!! Everything he said has come true not just in England but in every western country
I’m telling ppl there is something going on to make the west fall I’m hearing all they time these militant Middle East types telling me they are coming for the west and it will for. They sad that they lost the empires they had and want revenge instead of excepting strong powers came and you lost. And now we move past that they still want to conquer
I’ve been told this first hand many times. But I’m called racist cuz I’m white working class British Immagrsnt family
It's amazing how right he was and people still cant see it!
People can see it, but the BBC and the media circle subliminally control native Brits through the processes of shaming, and guilt tripping. They've been doing it for more than 20+ years, even governments are careful not to upset the BBC. Labour want more immigration - their future depends on it.
They can't see it because it's not an issue
@@powerplay8355 because they don't want to

Either way, its very apparent that the British Lexicon has shrunk considerably since 1970

enoch i agree
In our defence, a large number of the words used by both guests are essentially superfluous to the conversation.
The result of a multicultural society. It is necessary in human existence as in mathematics, that an increasingly divergent set of numbers must cater to the *lowest common denominator* in order to continue to present harmony.
Enoch , the man who could see the future . And what a sad future the uk has had 😢😢
This conversation wouldn't make the airwaves these days,but how refreshing it is to allow the guests to speak and communicate, most things are solved with communication and not judgement
Not so much solved as to give someone preaching dangerous, popularist, hate speech to a mass audience
Enoch Powell spoke up to 10 languages. The man was a perfect example of an English intellectual.

Whether one agrees with Powell or Miller how refreshing to see a proper intellectual debate, not least on an issue which seems to be impossible to be aired today.
Here, in the 70's, two people who STRONGLY disagree still perform a relatively high quality debate. How many have felt the unsettling degeneration of debating standards over the subsequent years?
The Left will no longer debate - they simply smash your face in.
@@patricketienne2579 I don't think they are all like that. Some on the left still debate well. Intelligent arguments against your position refine your own arguments and (in my opinion) there will always be a market for refined, articulate arguments; even if it's just at cocktail parties.

"I felt Miller may have been a tad utopian in his faith" - indeed he was, and that attitude by many then, later, and now, is one of the reasons why the obvious negatives of mass immigration have never been properly addressed by 50 years of governments. @@anjke
Enoch was a professor at the University then brigadier in the army before the age of 30.
Well he was probably right but personally I feel he went over the top with all that stuff about grinning piccaninnies. As he said himself, all political life ends in failure.
He was unionist MP for South Down too and liked some of the people from Kincora home. Ask the survivors.
Politics is all about winning over the moderates, middle ground voters to your line of thinking. Enoch made them run the other way. His verbal excess harmed the cause he was invested in.
@Alex Ryan The grinning piccaninnies?
OK but all that stuff about the River Tiber foaming with much blood and black men having the whip hand was nonetheless very inflammatory. Even close friends abandoned Enoch after the speech. He did have a reputation too after his resignation with Thorneycroft over the Macmillan budget. Probably right on that too.

Salute and respect to this true British patriot we the people should have listened to him .🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴🏴🇬🇧🇬🇧
The UK sealed its fate when it didn't listen to Enoch. Too late now.
Very true. The UK is lost
The number one reason the U.K imports groups of people called immigrants is because the monarchy family of the U.K and the upper class of the U.K decide to invade countries and colonise them. The immigrants used to be called slaves. They would invade middle eastern and African countries for example and take prisoners back home that would be forced to do work/labour for them, many young captives would be trained to fight for them.
Pope's and King's and Queens used to start the building up of armies or funding armies to do the invading and when the were successful they would take slaves from the defeated side. The industrial revolution happened and the Pope's, King's/Queens/establishment began to call 'slaves' 'employees' instead.
Look at Epic History tv YT channel, Europeans were taken as slaves for the last 1000 years and more. Modern tv propaganda implies only 'black' people were enslaved in the old style slavery.
Most people agreed and agree with Powell. Everywhere that has had 'white' people 'migrate' to non 'white' countries has been and is regarded as negative. Yet they say the Native Indians of America had their land 'stolen'. The french and Belgians going to African countries was a bad thing but large non 'white' groups being brought to mostly 'white' countries is not bad somehow? The pope's and kings/queens still exist and and now business people/ banking families and they make cowards like Cavett and the other posh coward spin propaganda to indigenous 'white' people that if they speak about their replacement as such they will be called racist. Eventually they are going to switch the narrative to 'there are too many 'black' people or 'poc' in top jobs and start to remove them.
@@user-yp3oj5se1i You don't know anything about the UK do you? The vast majority of slaves in the British Isles have been Britons enslaved by immigrants (like the Romans, Angles, Jutes, Danes, Normans, etc.).
@@douglasherron7534 Can you give one example of what you are talking about?
Where do you think i showed that i didn't know about UK?
That's so strange how you say "The vast majority of slaves in the British Isles have been Britons"?
Yes they "have been" slaves centuries ago. That was centuries ago. Britain has been doing the enslaving migration since.
Rome invaded and attacked Gaelic/Irish people that were living in England ( not called England at the time) as the Irish populated Scotland and the country now called England. Ogham stones were and many still are located all around Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales. They are pre British and fully Gaelic/Irish. Britons only began after rome invaded.
They were not called Britons before that, nowadays the British media/government use a made up term ( Celts) to describe the Gaelic/Irish people that lived there at the time.
Celts, celtic people never existed, The British media only began to use the term 'Celt' in the 1700's. As a way of ignoring/not talking about the fact that Gaelic clans inhabited both islands pre roman invasion.
Ancient Britons very first day of existence was when Rome colonised the area now called England.
Ireland was only referred to as 'British' when occupied by Britain like how the U.S was when occupied by them. Ireland has been occupied by Dutch and Norwegian and English in the past but beat their invaders and is still Gaelic/Irish nowadays.
' Isle' is a geographical term for a much smaller island beside a larger island, The island of Ireland is not small enough to be an isle geographically.
It is also much much older than England and Britain and as it's not part of Britain. It could have been known as British when occupied by Britain but even then not an isle like how Japan is not a Chinese isle. Referring to Ireland as British or a British isle and referring to Irish people as celts or Britons is simply incorrect and used as propaganda.
"Celt is a modern English word, first attested in 1707, in the writing of Edward Lhuyd,".
Isn't that funny how you claimed i knew nothing and yet schooled you?
@@cianog It hasn't been lost yet, it's wrong to give up hope too soon!
Forty years later and still making more sense than ever.
Only Jonathan Miller made sense.
50 years later
@@adolphbismark4331 Powell only made sense to Little Englander's and fans of Oswald Mosely. To anyone with a modicum of sense it was easy to see that he was just recycling the same old lies.

Enoch was more right than he could ever have imagined
He wasn't though was he berty boy
@@benmorton8945 unfortunately he was spot on

@@benmorton8945 so you never watched the interview then?
@@bertybasilbennett3040 I'd just like to know what points he raised which you agree upon
This man was And still is 100% right in what he was saying
I seem to remember that in one of Enoch's speeches he quoted that as many as 50.000 immigrants a year might come to the UK, changing the face of our culture irrevocably. If only he knew then about the MILLIONS that would actually come! In London, Slough, Luton, Bradford, Rotherham etc etc the indigenous Brit is an ethnic minority.
Aye because a lot of Brits immigrants, emigrated to Spain etc. But we don't call them immigrants, they are expats. Ha Britainnia rules the waves lol. They make it up as they go along lol 😆
@@barbara-annperry5941 The last I heard though, the Brits were welcome in Spain because of the money they brought with them. I'm not sure Spain would be so welcoming if all those people of colour in their little rubber boats headed South instead of West...in fact why don't they, one asks oneself? Could it be that we have a more laissez faire attitude to ILLEGAL immigrants (and their families that follow them in short order!)? Spain is obviously not so generous - nor the Middle East states who accept NO immigrants at all on the basis of 'cultural differences' (huh?).
@@reddogchi Who told you that?
@@barbara-annperry5941 Which bit?
@@barbara-annperry5941 There are not 10 million Brits in Spain. I take it you are Scottish like me, but you are an SNP supporter.
So ridiculed by the elite at the time - and so resonantly, prophetically right in hindsight. Dear old Enoch.
Powell was vile
@@thehilligan Why was he "vile", thehilligan. State your case instead of typing one liners.
@@thehilligan Well in what sense vile? From what I can tell he had several distinguished friends of high moral character who spoke warmly of the man and his personal integrity. By 'vile' do you mean he dared to discuss the concept of race and ethnicity? if so, he is only vile to you. To others simply a man who discussed such things. You need to do more than just throw mud.
Blind more like.
*elitists, not the elite
So crazy watching this knowing how the story ends 😢
I think that Dick Cavett was enthralled that two people could converse in this manner.
How true was he !!!
👏👏👏🇬🇧
Not at all. The only people who think Powell was right are paranoid bigots.
@@jupitermoongauge4055 haha That will be me then
Yeah Miller, not Powell
How rabid racist he was.
He's been proven right again and again.
Never before were Enoch's words so true
Traitor

Sad 😢
Stay mad. You British fools came tonight country first and now we are taking over yours.
He was ahead of his time- bring him back
Time has only proven Enoch Powell to be correct.
It has proven he was utterly evil and a disgrace to this country.
@@kicka11 why is he evil and a disgrace? Because you dont like the inconvenient facts of the matter
@kicka11 Yeah, the grooming gangs, stabbings, terrorist attacks and cultural division really proved him wrong
@@adamford7808 got his ass with that lol
Not even slightly, he just made the racism against minorities worse
I'm proud to have met him once when he came to our school in 1987
Just look to how the British Pakistanis have purposefully NOT integrated in a single settlement throughout the UK - Birmingham, Preston, Bolton, Blackburn, Nelson (Christ, this place is every reason you’ll ever need) etc, etc.
I haven't researched this topic, but did this arise from the formation of Pakistan from what was West Pakistan? Were most of the original emigrants Hindi and Buddhist and not Muslim? Now do these communities have to forbear the horrible sound of loudspeakers screaming demonic calls to prayers to people stupidly not able to set their smart phones to a 5 time a day ring?
Funny how the people most for diversity live far away from it... Ps Nuckle dragging little Englander.
@George Piddington A bit like all the British immigrants in Spain. Tens of thousands of Brits who have lived here for decades but do not speak a word of Spanish. They live in British settlements, shopping solely at British supermarkets, eating British food and only mixing with other Brits. Sound familliar?
@@robertsinnerman7804 my sister live there and speaks fluent Spanish as do her friends.
@@JohnSmith-lb6ww this is actually verified in sociological studies. Robert Putnam’s Bowling Alone shows that the communities with the most diversity are those with the most Balkanization and lack of community
Enoch Powell a very intelligent man and a visionary of today's world in the UK.
A very clever man who cared
We need these types of honest open conversations now of opposing views without hate between one another.
The virtue signallers won’t allow it and they are the ones that used to tell racist jokes ha ha ha
Facts get you cancelled, along with mentioning anything about those special protected peoples (POC/LGBT) if you yourself are not apart of their dillusional world view.
Intelligent and respectful debate. Rarely happens nowadays.
Awesome man.
This open debate is more important now than it ever has been especially for legacy media to broadcast it…
What a beautiful debate... so well articulated
I was a teenager when Enoch Powell made his Rivers of Blood speech. Next day I went into a newsagents and all the “common people” were have a lively discussion in support of him. Enoch was punished for stating the obvious and our grandchildren will really pay the price. Sometimes I wonder why our parents fought in WW2 to prevent invasion. Subsequent generations just opened the doors.
Because they were lied to about the enemy and were sent as lambs to the slaughter as some very rich families profited off of the destruction of Europe and increased their power by being able to buy everything cheap after its destruction. Both wars were evil and pointless, designed to make a few people money, and decimate the spirit, culture, population, and even history of Europe, maybe even forever.
@@orthodoxbelarussianopinion713 no, not forever
@@orthodoxbelarussianopinion713 because the "chosen people" who orchestrated ww1 and ww2 now promote diversity multiculturalism mass immigration.

Both wars had to be fought though. No?

Enoch Powell is wasting his time there trying to debate with Mr Bean! Everything Powell said back then has come to fruition and all to the detriment of the UK
I feel the internet has filled the vacuum left by the disappearance of this kind of television, and proved there is a huge demand for intelligent debates. Keep expecting Dick to start reading out Super Chats.
Referring to whom, may I ask?
@@AdamMetwally what? I'm confused...
"All I ask for is you don't live in a fools paradise".....perfect.
This is what happens when you found your education on archetype; instead of the wisdom of your own experience, aka, anybodys fool..

Everything he said came true, the man was a prophet and true patriot. Most politicians are traitors nowadays.
At the end of the day Enoch Powell spoke the truth, in a world where you can't say the truth
