'Enoch Powell. It's a name that has carved itself into the British collective psyche, whether you had a family member in the great deportations, whether you have seen from first glance the struggle between the BNA and the Self Defence Forces of Great Britain in the once proud North or whether you watched the world slowly fall to pieces, both on the news and out on the street as the eighties became the nineties.

As a state only now removing it's pariah status, with our infrastructure decaying and unemployment the worst in the western world, at over five million. We can only ask ourselves how can we recover and how can we live with ourselves remembering what we allowed to happen.'

From 'The World we made: Life After Nationalism.'


'Well some people would like to say all the NF troubles began in '74 but that is a very inaccurate statement. In fact the National Front began to pick up a pace back in the late 60's and early 70's, with members either consisting of football drunks or Civic Nationalists, however it wasn't nearly as big as when he entered and changed everything. Don't pretend you don't know who I'm talking about with that face, Enoch Powell. Anyway the leader at the time was Arthur Chesterton who was having to deal with some members of his party who wanted to lift the ban on the GBM members who wanted to join the NF, mostly so they could have an electoral vehicle while the NF could beef up the member count, which Chesterton refused to do due to John Tyndall and Martin Webster's sympathies of National Socialism and Chesterton's fears that they would taint the NF's name. Maybe if he gave up and let the Nazi's in, then we could have avoided all this.'

Pro. Church's interview over his book 'The War Before the General: The NF Before Powell.'


'Arthur's stepped down. He seemed pretty relieved at not having to deal with that whole issue of not letting in those Nazi yobbos into the movement, though he was a bit scared that the members already in will mess things up. Either way I'm being given the top spot according to some which I'm going to take, can't risk someone else messing things up now that an election's getting near. Not really a diary person but I've been thinking that I should use this to record some events so that people know about how hard it is to get a party moving when you're being called racists every half an hour.'

'How did I join you ask? Well that's the question everyone wants to know now isn't it?'

Exert from the famous five part program 'The Powell Interviews.'


'INTERVIEWER: Your name?
JENNY: Jenny Powell, daughter of the late Enoch Powell, former Prime Minister.
INTERVIEWER: You may have been watching too much Spitting Image in the past few years.
JENNY: Sorry, I mean former National Front leader.
INTERVIEWER: Your mother died in 1973 did she not?
JENNY: Yes...she was killed in a car crash on the 2nd of August.
INTERVIEWER: Did you notice any change in your fathers behaviour after your mothers death?
JENNY: Not at first, no, in fact I remember being angry at him for being so neutral at Mum's funeral. It was only when I began to hear him sobbing in the night and the broken ornaments around the house that I knew...something was wrong."
INTERVIEWER: Did this get worse?
JENNY: At first I thought he was getitng better, that he had stopped hating himself for not being in that car, it was only later I began to realise that he was projecting his hate onto other things...it was around this time I first heard of him speaking of the National Front.'
