No, it's dystopic if one holds particular points of view. It's implausible in that everything that could be going right for the NF has, even beyond all reason.
You do not know what the NF has ahead of it in future.
Realistically, the movement should have already crashed and burned.
Ideas that are now shared by modern Russia and Italy?
Leave your politics at the door then you can enjoy alternate history!
Should it and would it?
Or do you want it to?
And that that the plausibility level of a government with a long tradition of democratic rule from the people and ensured rights deporting millions of those very people is less then reasonable
Britain is neither Italy nor Russia. The U.K. has strong pluralist and democratic traditions dating back arguably to the seventeenth century. Neither Russia nor Italy have such a tradition. Also, those regimes are not openly racist, unlike Powell's.
Powell would say his regime is not racist.
And alot of folks in the American south in the 1960's said that Segregation wasn't racist. That doesn't mean much of anything.
The exporting of the NF to other countries is implausible, the racialist overtones and mass deportations are implausible, the popularity and degree of support the NF has received is implausible, and the rebuilding of the Empire that has occurred here is similarly implausible. Of course, so too is the duration of Powell's rule.
Too right. This has gone WAY far into the realm of ASB.
Tell me one thing that is ASB?
I see now you are starting to understand.
Deporting millions of people from Britain in the 1980s. The logistics alone make it nearly impossible to pull off such a feat.
Well besides the fact that there was mass black riots at the time, the logistics would be easy after all the Soviets deported millions of Germans in one year in 1946.
Their massive military (which Britain doesn't have) probably helped. And there was international backing for that action at the time (regrettable but true). Neither one of these are present in mid-1980s NF-run Britain.
Also worth mentioning that Germany had just caused the largest war in history. And from a logistical standpoint the Germans only had to be forced from their homes overland.
Reading this has made me think that having Powell as PM would be the greatest thing ever to happen to Britain. I hope you update soon as this is great.
