What If .. ?

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Enoch Powell 's ministerial career ended spectacularly when he was sacked by Edward Heath after his 'Rivers of Blood' speech. In the third of a four-part series of informed historical speculation,
Christopher Andrew asks: What if Powell had stayed and taken his place two years later in a Conservative
Government? How would he have influenced immigration policy,
British entry into Europe, or relations with the Americans? As he enters his 80th year, Enoch Powell ponders the possibilities with Dr Patrick Seyd from
Sheffield University. Producer Ian Bell
