Powell was a prodigious intellect and eminent scholar. He saw the future with great accuracy from his studies of history and his experience as a military officer during WW2. That speech was grossly misunderstood by the usual type of almost hysterical parliamentary donkeys. He was certainly not a 'hate speaker' nor did he have any intention to incite the mob. He was, in the words of my mother, who worked for him in his early political days, " a scholar and a gentleman". We just can't allow the historical reality to be so distorted by otherwise intelligent young men who've ingested 5th hand snippets of biased criticism.

Yes! I'm grateful you wrote that. Whitehouse was far more nuanced than her PC leftist critics (then as now) would have us believe. She wasn't a killjoy dragon, she was an intelligent, articulate woman who foresaw the issues and bravely spoke for many millions of parents. The leftist media, then as now, did their best to over-simplify and reduce her arguments and malign and vilify her as a person. And I would like these young men to know that the media has always had its fair share of gay people or even an over-representation of gay people. Sexuality was never a bar to media success. The difference between then and now is that NO ONE, gay, straight or furry, felt a need to advertise their 'victimhood' and to insist that everyone else should celebrate their 'differences'.

It's become incredibly tiresome, hasn't it? The result is that nothing REAL gets done or sorted. It's like we adults are beset by hoards of wailing toddlers....
